Expression of L-type amino acid transporter 1 is a poor prognostic factor for Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma

Abstract L-type neutral amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) is a heterodimeric membrane transport protein involved in neutral amino acid transport. LAT1 is highly expressed in various malignant solid tumors and plays an essential role in cell proliferation. However, its role in malignant lymphoma remain...
