TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in heart, liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas, adrenal medulla and cortex, thyroid, testis, spleen, appendix, peripheral blood lymphocytes and bone marrow. Lower expression found in brain, placenta, lung, kidney, ovary, small intestine, stomach, lymph node, thymus and fetal liver. Expression is up-regulated in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of patients with schizophrenia (postmortem brain study). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23103966}.
