Among numerous approaches to the study of migraine, the nitroglycerin (NTG) model occupies a prominent place, but there is relatively insufficient information about how NTG affects intracranial vessels. In this study we aim to assess the effects of NTG on blood-flow parameters in meningeal vessels measured by imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) in animal experiments. An amplitude of the pulsatile component (APC) of iPPG waveform was assessed before and within 2.5 h after the NTG administration in saline (n = 13) or sumatriptan (n = 12) pretreatment anesthetized rats in conditions of a closed cranial window. In animals of both groups, NTG caused a steady decrease in blood pressure. In 7 rats of the saline group, NTG resulted in progressive increase in APC, whereas decrease in APC was observed in other 6 rats. In all animals in the sumatriptan group, NTG administration was accompanied exclusively by an increase in APC. Diametrically opposite changes in APC due to NTG indicate a dual effect of this drug on meningeal vasomotor activity. Sumatriptan acts as a synergist of the NTG vasodilating action. The results we obtained contribute to understanding the interaction of vasoactive drugs in the study of the headache pathophysiology and methods of its therapy.
