    Targeting JAM-C could thus constitute a new therapeutic strategy to prevent lymphoma cells from reaching supportive microenvironments not only in the bone marrow and lymph nodes but also in the spleen

    potential of JAM3 and JAM2 as new targets for the treatment of human gliomas
    cancerurinary 
    novel target gene for the diagnosis and treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC)
    immunologyinfectious 
    reduction of the pro-inflammatory aged neutrophils by blockade of JAM3 has a novel therapeutic potential in sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI)
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • JAM-C gene knocked out mice exhibited loss of integrity of the myelin sheath, defective nerve conduction and motor abnormalities
  • JAM3 knockdown caused a delay in the hfRPE cell polarization, and JAM3 inhibition significantly decreased the chemokine-induced transmigration of granulocytes through the hfRPE monolayer
