GENE SUMMARY |
---|
The protein encoded by this gene is an axonal glycoprotein belonging to the immunoglobulin supergene family. The ectodomain, consisting of several immunoglobulin-like domains and fibronectin-like repeats (type III), is linked via a single transmembrane sequence to a conserved cytoplasmic domain. This cell adhesion molecule plays an important role in nervous system development, including neuronal migration and differentiation. Mutations in the gene cause X-linked neurological syndromes known as C |

Complication | Evidence | PMID |
Retinopathy | 1. This study identified that higher PIP, THBS2 and/or NGAL levels were significantly associated with nephropathy of T2DM, and higher L1CAM but normal PIP, THBS2 or NGAL was significantly associated with retinopathy of T2DM. | 27446820 |
