Cell Adhesion Molecules (CAMs) play a crucial role in regulating immune responses and repairing damage caused by hypoxia. However, the relationship between the expression characteristics of CAMs in yak lung tissues and their adaptation to the plateau environment remains unclear. To address this ques...
