Tissue SpecificityExpressed in brain, lung, spleen and skeletal muscle. Lower levels detected in heart and kidney. Not detected in the pancreas. In non-lymphoid tissues, in the absence of inflammation, the major source of constitutive expression is the macrophage lineage. Also expressed in cells from different hemopoietic cell lineages, including bone marrow cells, CD34+ stem cells, mature B- and T-cells, monocytes and granulocytes. Down-regulated in activated macrophages from inflammatory lesions of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions, such as in tuberculosis and in Crohn disease, whereas in Burkitt lymphoma, persists in macrophages involved in the phagocytosis of apoptotic malignant cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11313722, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12393603}.

Subcellular location [CC][Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus {ECO:0000250}. Note=Localization depends on differentiation status of myoblasts. In undifferentiated myoblasts, isoform 1 localizes to the cytoplasm, but in differentiating myoblasts, isoform 1 is localized to the nucleus (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
