Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether levels of circulating endothelial progenitor cells (cEPC) are increased in the acute phase of ischemic stroke.
Detailed Description: Endothelial dysfunction is a key component of atherosclerosis which contributes to the development of cardio- and cerebrovascular diseases. However, endothelial dysfunction (ED) is not established as a risk factor for ischemic stroke.

As a novelty the proposed trial investigates the following variety of indirect markers of endothelial function in acute ischemic stroke:

circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPC), endothelial microparticles (EMP), ENDOPAT (RH- PAT ratio) in two regards:

1. time after ischemic events (\< 48h, Days 4-5, day 7 or at discharge)
2. etiological stroke subtypes

It is not known whether these parameters are changed after acute cerebral ischemia and could possibly serve as specific target for treatment.
