L1CAM is a stem cell marker, cell adhesion molecule, belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily of cell adhesion molecules (IgCAM) and it is aberrantly expressed in several different types of human solid tumors. The aim of the present study was to assess the expression patterns of L1CAM and its clinical significance in colorectal cancer.

Results: L1CAM expression was significantly correlated with advanced stage of disease (p |
