Ischaemic stroke (IS) is a disease that is a common cause of death and one of the most common causes of disability in adults. There is a continuous need to conduct stroke pathogenesis studies. A certain role here can be attributed to adipose-derived hormones. The aim of this paper is to assess the blood concentration for selected adipocytokines: omentin-1, irisin, protein-1 related with C1q/TNF (CTRP1), vaspin and nesfatin-1 in IS patients, and an attempt to define their role as risk factors for ischaemic stroke.
