Özet
Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is a progressive, debilitating, and fatal brain disorder caused by mutant measles virus infection. Although both viral and host factors seem to be involved in SSPE, the exact pathogenesis remains to be determined. Autoimmune demyelination is characteristic of SSPE. The blood angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) activity and angiotensin II (Ang II) levels are associated with the ACE gene polymorphism. Proinflammatory effects of Ang II may contribute to the development of SSPE. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the ACE and Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R) (A1166C) gene polymorphisms were associated with SSPE. The polymorphisms were investigated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in 43 patients with SSPE and 100 healthy controls. The genotype distribution of the SSPE children and healthy controls were as follows: DD 58.1% versus 34.0, ID …
