Abstract excerpt
In order to systematically test the hypothesis that genetic variation in the dopamine system contributes to the susceptibility to migraine with aura (MA), we performed a comprehensive genetic association study of altogether ten genes from the dopaminergic system in a large German migraine with aura case-control sample. Based on the genotyping results of 53 variants across the ten genes in 270 MA cases and 272...
