Abstract excerpt
Adhesion molecule expression on acute and chronic lymphoid leukemia cells of B lineage (B-ALL and B-CLL) may subserve several functions. Adhesion of leukemic cells to endothelial cells and to extracellular matrix components is relevant to homing, trafficking and spread of the malignant cells, and thus to clinical presentation, course and disease prognosis. Adhesive interactions between malignant cells and...
