Background
Basal cell adhesion molecule (Lu/BCAM) is a membrane-bound glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF), functioning as a receptor for the extracellular matrix protein, laminin. BCAM (Lutheran/basal cell-adhesion molecule, a glycoprotein) belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily which contains both Lu blood group and BCAM tumor-associated antigens. Proteomics analysis suggests that BCAM might be a potential biomarker for pancreatic cancer. BCAM, involved in cell adhesion and migration, can also promote tumor metastasis and has been elucidated to play a functional role in the metastasis of thyroid cancer and gastric cancer.
