Tissue specificity：Expressed by subsets of mature neurons (PubMed:11733035). Expressed in kidney (podocytes) (PubMed:16937370). Expression is restricted to the atria, lung mesenchyme, and vascular smooth muscle (PubMed:23836893). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11733035, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16937370, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23836893}.
Induction：Specifically activated by bHLH factors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18560595}.
Developmental stage：Expressed at high levels at 8.5 dpc and its expression level gradually decreases during embryogenesis. At 12.5 dpc, is expressed throughout the developing nervous system. It is expressed in both the ventricular zone and the mantle layer of the developing brain. At 14.5 dpc, expressed in the cortical plate as well as in other regions of the brain. Also expressed at a high level in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia. Expressed by almost all cells in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia at this stage. At later stages, expression is gradually restricted to several regions such as the hippocampus, cerebellum and retina. In the hippocampus, a high level of expression continues during embryogenesis until adulthood. Expressed in the CA1-CA3 regions and the dentate gyrus. At 18.5 dpc, expressed in cerebellum by Purkinje cells and granule cell precursors in the external granular layer (EGL). By postnatal day 4, expressed by aligned Purkinje cells and by the EGL and internal granular layer (IGL) cells. In the adult cerebellum, expressed at a high level by Purkinje cells and weakly by granule cells in the IGL. In developing retina, expressed in both the ganglion cell layer and the ventricular zone at 11.5 dpc and 17.5 dpc. Expression becomes very weak in the adult retina. Early in metanephric development, expressed in metanephric mesenchyme but not ureteric bud-derived cells, with overall expression being most abundant in the nephrogenic zone. From 14.5 dpc to birth, expressed at constant levels. By day 13, corresponding to the end of new nephron induction, expression levels begin to decline. By day 19, expression returned to fetal levels, and by day 40, the low level of expression that persisted into adulthood is established. In adult kidney, expression is restricted to podocytes. Expressed in pancreatic tissue from 12.5 dpc until 17.5 dpc. Is still detectable at low level,at postnatal day 1 and in isolated pancreatic islets in adult (PubMed:18560595). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11733035, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16937370, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18560595}.
