Tissue specificity |
Expressed in colon, lung, spleen, pancreas, ileum and bone marrow (at protein level) (PubMed:15834545). In colon, found throughout the crypt and surface epithelium, including goblet cells (at protein level) (PubMed:15834545). Highest expression is observed in bone marrow, spleen and lung, with lower levels in other tissues (PubMed:12782128, PubMed:14733912, PubMed:15064728, PubMed:15834545). Detected at low levels in granulocytes, but not found in monocytes or lymphocytes (PubMed:14733912). Has very weak expression in white adipose tissue (PubMed:12782128). |
