The world journal of biological psychiatry : the official journal of the World Federation of Societies of Biological Psychiatry(2022)
Abstract
It is likely that the low BDNF and IGF-1 levels found in AN are consequences of starvation, which are reversible with weight restoration. The increase in BDNF and IGF-1 during therapeutic weight restoration might improve neuroplasticity, which is the basis of learning, and thus psychotherapeutic success.
