The humoral and cell mediated immunity was studied in 75 cases of completed ischaemic stroke. The results demonstrated only in few cases intrathecal IgG production and presence of oligoclonal IgG bands. A significant relative drop of cell count with CD3 reactivity and increase of cells with reactivity Anti-HLADR and CD11 was observed in peripheral blood. The results demonstrate that in the course of ischaemic stroke various immunological reactions may occur in particular cases. However, there exist no evidence that repeated stroke leads to immunization of the patient.
