Tissue SpecificityIsoform 4 is ubiquitous;
it is detected in glandular epithelia of bronchus, stomach, small intestine, colon, uterus, esophagus, spleen, kidney, pancreas, prostate and breast. Isoform 1 is detected in uterus, colon and prostate, and in the smooth muscle cell layer in bronchial and arterial walls (at protein level) (PubMed:15947423). Isoform 1 is predominantly expressed in smooth muscle. Isoform 4 is predominantly expressed in epithelial cells. In bronchial biopsies, it is expressed in smooth muscle cells of asthma patients, but not in control patients;
whereas in epithelial cells, its expression is consistently stronger in asthma patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15073379, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15947423}.
