S100b in acute ischemic stroke clots is a biomarker for post-thrombectomy intracranial hemorrhages

Abstract

Higher S100b expression in AIS clots, higher NIHSS at admission and higher number of passes during thrombectomy are all associated with PTIH. Further investigation of S100b expression in AIS clots by neutrophils, macrophages and T-lymphocytes could provide insight into the role of S100b in thromboinflammation.
