JAM-A overexpression is related to disease progression in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and downregulated by lenalidomide

Abstract Cancer stem cells play an important role on tumor progression. Biomarkers of stem cell property and their relationship to extranodal involvement of malignant lymphocytes are undefined in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Here we showed that junctional adhesion molecule-A (JAM-A) was hi...
