[Circulating immune complexes in families with positive history of ischemic stroke]
Abstract:
The concentrations and protein composition of immune complexes circulating in the blood of patients with residuals of ischemic stroke and their healthy relatives from families with positive history of stroke have been determined. The data obtained have been compared with the results of our previous study on determination of concentration and protein composition of immune complexes circulating in the blood of patients with acute ischemic stroke and healthy subjects. Basing on the results obtained we conclude that the elevated level of immune complexes in the blood of patients with residuals of stroke is not genetically determined but rather reflects alterations developing as the result of previous stroke. However, the protein composition of the immune complexes, particularly the presence of C-reactive protein, may, to a certain degree, reflect genetic predisposition to stroke.
