Tissue specificity:Expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes, particularly in mature granulocytes and to a lesser extent in monocytes but not in lymphocytes. Detected in spleen, lung and muscle, probably as a result of leukocyte infiltration in these tissues. Not expressed in thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, heart, brain, placenta, liver, kidney, pancreas. Expression detected in several myeloid leukemic, colon cancer, and prostate cancer cell lines. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10666224, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10807793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11115844}.
Induction:In monocytes, up-regulated by treatment with colchicine and IFN-alpha, by the proinflammatory cytokines IFNG/IFN-gamma and TNF, by bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) and by retroviral infection. Repressed in monocytes by the antiinflammatory cytokines IL10/interleukin-10, TGFB1 and IL4/interleukin-4. In neutrophils and macrophages, up-regulated by IFNG/IFN-gamma with a peak after 8 hours of treatment. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10807793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17964261, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26347139}.
Developmental stage:First detected in bone marrow promyelocytes. Expression increases throughout myelocyte differentiation and peaks in the mature myelomonocytic cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10807793}.
