Abstract

The pathophysiological understanding of cluster headache has evolved significantly over the past years. Although it is now well known that the trigeminovascular system, the parasympathetic system and the hypothalamus play important roles in its pathomechanism, we increasingly understand the functional role several neurotransmitters and hormones play in the communication between these structures.
