Abstract
Klotho levels are low in the acute stage of AN and increase with nutritional rehabilitation. Low klotho on admission may be secondary to low IGF-1 levels and may contribute to the clinical manifestations of AN. The role of klotho in the pathophysiology of AN and as a novel marker of disease severity should be further explored.
