Tissuecolon, esophagus, rectum, sigmoid.colon, esophagus.mucosa, transverse.colon
Tissue SpecificityExpressed at high levels in colon, and cervix and at moderate level in tonsil (PubMed:25585381, PubMed:28900043). Highly reduced expression in primary colon cancer tissues compared with that in adjacent tissues (PubMed:25351403). Highest levels of expression detected in stomach and colon;
expressed in epithelium of skin and esophagus, and in some tumor and/or tumor adjacent tissues (TAT), including TAT of esophagus cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) tissues (at protein level) (PubMed:25585381). Highly expressed by inflammatory differentiated keratinocytese (PubMed:35704588). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25585381, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28900043, ECO:0000269|PubMed:35704588}.
