The CSF levels of albumin, alpha 2-microglobulin and IgG were studied in patients with severe brain injury. Elevated CSF levels of albumin and alpha 2-microglobulin were found in more severe patients. The level of IgG level was within the normal range. Endogenic protease-bound alpha 2-microglobulin may cause secondary cerebral tissue lesion, by closing the vicious circle.
