Abstract:Aim To observe the dynamic changes of specific immune complex over all courses of drug administration of patients with neurocysticercosis. Methods By using a double mono-cloned antibody sandwich ELISA assay the specific immune complex was detected.Employed anti-human IgG, IgM McAb as coated material, and HRP labeled anti-cysticerci McAb as recognizing system, specific immune complexes that extracted in sera were monitored. Results The immune complex level of IgG class rose significantly after the 1st course (P<0.05), and then gradually dropped off (P<0.01). On the other hand, that of IgM class did not change significantly after 1st course of treatment. It gradually declined with advancing course of drug administration (P<0.01). The incidence rate of clinical worsening after 1st course of treatment was the highest one among all courses (P<0.005).Conclusion This study indicates that immune complex level of IgG class is associated with the clinical worsening and the efficacy of therapy.
