Objective To investigate the relationship between the plasma inflammatory cytokines and carotid atherosclerosis in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease(ICVD).Methods The levels of plasma interleukin (IL)-6,matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8 and soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) in 64 patients with ICVD were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),the severity of bilateral carotid atherosclerosis was measured by colour ultrasound.The results were compared with those of non ICVD controls. The association of the levels of plasma IL-6,MMP-8,sCD40L and the severity of carotid atherosclerosis were analysized. Results The levels of plasma IL-6,MMP-8,and sCD40L in patients with ICVD were significantly higher than those in control group(all P
