Abstract: Objective To investigate the correlation between S100B protein and the stability of carotid artery arteriosclero‐sis .Methods A total of 200 patients with carotid artery arteriosclerosis(CAS) were assigned as study group ,and then subdivided into stable plaques (SP)group and instable plaques (IP)group ,and 198 whoes age and gender well matched unrelated healthy sub‐jects were enrolled as control group .The levels of S100B and hs‐CRP of the 3 groups were measured by ELESA .All the diagnosis were confirmed by color Doppler and B‐ultrasound .Results The level of serum S100B was significantly higher in IP group than that of SP group and control group(P<0 .01) .There was no statistical significance between IP and SP group in the level of serum S100B(P=0 .07) .The level of hs‐CRP was significantly higher in IP group than that of SP group and control group(P<0 .01) . There was no statistical significance between IP and SP group in the level of serum hs‐CRP(P=0 .59) .Conclusion The increase of serum level of S100B in the IP CAS patients shows that S100B may take part in the pathogenic mechanism of CAS ,and regulating of S100B may become the potential therapeutic targets for CAS .
