Tissue specificity:Widely expressed (PubMed:11113115, PubMed:17164409). Abundantly expressed in primary immune cells (isoform 1 and isoform 2), including in neutrophils, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells (mostly Langerhans cells), and B- and T-lymphocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:15285719, PubMed:17164409). Strongly expressed in epithelial cells lining the glandular epithelium, such as that of the gastrointestinal tract (stomach, small intestine, colon), the respiratory tract (trachea and bronchi), and the endometrial and endocervical glands, gallbladder, prostate, and breast (at protein level). In testis, expressed in spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes, but not in Sertoli cells (at protein level). In the brain, expressed in neurons, in particular in pyramidal ones and in oligodendrocytes, but not detected in microglia (at protein level) (PubMed:17164409). Expressed in adult and fetal ocular tissues, including in adult and 24-week old fetal choroid, sclera, cornea, and optic nerve, as well as in adult retina and fetal retina/retinal pigment epithelium (PubMed:23349227). Highly expressed in the skin throughout the epidermis and in dermal fibroblasts, in both glabrous skin and plantar skin. It is detected in keratinocytes, but not in melanocytes. Expressed in epidermal appendages such as hair follicles (PubMed:27662089). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11113115, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15285719, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17164409, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23349227, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27662089}.
Induction:Up-regulated by ATF4 during endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response (PubMed:26086088). Up-regulated in arterial endothelial cells exposed to plasma from patients with peripheral arterial disease, but not to plasma from healthy controls (PubMed:24439873). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:24439873, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26086088}.
Developmental stage:Associated with differentiation in stratified epithelia of the skin, esophagus, intestine, and cervix, as well as in the prostate gland. Undetectable in undifferentiated basal cells, but expressed in differentiated luminal secretory cells (PubMed:11113115). Expressed in differentiated macrophages and granulocytes, but not their precursors (at protein level) (PubMed:11113115, PubMed:15285719). In testis, also associated with cell differentiation, with conflicting results. Expressed in spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes, but not in cells from later differentiation stages, including secondary spermatocytes, spermatids, and spermatozoa (at protein level) (PubMed:17164409). Not detected in spermatocytes, nor spermatids, and strongly expressed in spermatozoa (at protein level) (PubMed:11113115). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11113115, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15285719, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17164409}.
