Circulating levels of B subsets in the BAV and the TAV groups. Circulating CD19+ B cells (a), naïve B IgD+CD27− cells (b), memory unswitched IgD+CD27+ B cells (c), memory switched B IgD−CD27+ cells (d), and double-negative B cells (e) were evaluated in patients with BAV and TAV with or without TAA. Cells were expressed as the absolute numbers. For the description of data, see Results.
