Alterations in B cell subsets correlate with body composition parameters in female adolescents with anorexia nervosa
Abstract Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe eating disorder and often associated with altered humoral immune responses. However, distinct B cell maturation stages in peripheral blood in adolescents with AN have not been characterized. Treatment effects and the relationship between clinical and B cell...
