We found that the ACLF liver harbored reduced fraction of naïve B cells and elevated percentage of CD27+CD21− activated memory B cells (AM), CD27−CD21− atypical memory B cells (atMBC), CD27+IgD−IgM+(IgM+ memory B cells), and CD27+CD38++ plasma cells than cirrhosis and healthy controls. Here, CD27 is linked to Cirrhosis.
