TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityExpressed in most tissues examined with highest levels of expression in heart, liver, skeletal muscle and pancreas. Also expressed in bladder cell line ECV-304 and in various breast cancer cell lines. Also detected in both in situ and invasive breast tumors where its expression is down-regulated and mostly restricted to the cytoplasm of malignant epithelium. Down-regulation of expression is associated with elevated levels of HIF1A and increased tumor growth and angiogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11744733, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15342390}.
