Variation of serum NSE and S-100 ? in patients with acute cerebral infarction subtypes / 中国病理生理杂志

AIM: To explore clinical significance of the serum changes of neuron-specific enolase (NSE)and S-100 ? protein (S-100 ?) during acute cerebral infarction. METHODS: 59 acute cerebral infarction patients were classified as total anterior circulation infarcts (TACI), partial anterior circulation infarcts (PACI), lacunar infarcts (LACI) and posterior circulation infarcts (POCI). Their serum NSE and S-100 ? concentrations were determinated by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) during stroke onset 6 d, and compared with 32 controls. RESULTS: The every time point serum NSE concentration of TACI was higher than controls (P
