Identification of Anti-HIF 1alpha Autoantibodies in Patients With Anorexia Nervosa and Characterization of Their Pathogenic Potential in Undernutrition-associated Hepatic Cytolysis

When blood is drawn as part of the treatment, three additional dry tubes will be taken for the immunology laboratory (see study diagram). These three dry tubes will be used to test for 1/ anti-nuclear autoantibodies and those associated with hepatic autoimmune pathologies 2/ AAHIF and assess their pathogenic potential using techniques already developed. The third dry tube will be sent to the Biogénopole Biological Resource Center (CHU Timone, APHM).

In the event of AAHIF positivity, a second sample will be taken between 12 and 16 weeks later to verify the persistence of autoantibodies: Visit 2.
