TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityIsoform 2 is detected in plasma (at protein level). Expressed and secreted by activated T-lymphocytes. Expressed at low to moderate levels in peripheral blood leukocytes, spleen, lymph node, tonsil, bone marrow and fetal liver. At very low levels found in thymus. Isoform 2 is the major isoform in peripheral blood leukocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10811918, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17261078}.
