Tissue SpecificityWidely expressed in both fetal and adult ocular tissues (at protein level). In the eye, expression is accentuated in the ciliary muscle, optic nerve and the neural retina. In early placenta, localized to fibroblastoid stromal cells of the placental villi, to endothelial cells of developing capillaries and to cells of the cytotrophoblastic columns. Also detected in large decidual cells of the decidual membrane and to stromal cells of the gestational endometrium, but not in the epithelial cells in the endometrial glands. Isoform 10: Expressed in muscle (PubMed:26626625). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10865988, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26626625, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8246446}.
