Tissue specificity:Expressed at very high levels in uterus and, at much lower levels, in ovary and cervix. Very low levels, if any, in other organs. In the endometrium, expressed in the luminal and glandular epithelial cells (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15233997, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23449591}.
Induction:By estrogens. Contrary to other type I interferons, not induced by known pattern-recognition receptor pathways. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23449591}.
Developmental stage:Expression varies approximately 30-fold during the estrous cycle, with lowest levels during diestrus and highest at estrus. During pregnancy, uterine expression is dramatically reduced at 1.5 dpc and reaches its lowest levels at 4.5 dpc, coincident with the time of embryo implantation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23449591}.
Protein families:Alpha/beta interferon family
