ESTIMATION OF LEVEL OF SUBPOPULATION CD14+/CD16+ MONOCYTES IN PATIENTS WITH JUVENILE DEPRESSIONS
At present, at least two phenotypically different subpopulations of blood monocytes have been identified: "classical" monocytes with the phenotype CD14++/CD16- and "nonclassical" (pro-inflammatory) with the phenotype CD14+/CD16+. It has been established
