TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityWidely expressed with highest levels in muscle, nasal mucosa, salivary gland, uvula, fat, liver, heart, placenta and pancreas (PubMed:18403135, PubMed:18663353, PubMed:27353360). Moderately expressed in the lung, small intestine, kidney and brain. Lower levels detected in renal cell carcinoma than in normal kidney tissue (PubMed:18403135). Higher levels detected in oncocytoma tumors than in normal kidney.
