Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in normal bone marrow and weakly expressed in fetal liver (PubMed:10753836). During neutrophil differentiation, expression begins at the metamyelocyte stage and continues throughout the subsequent stages (at protein level) (PubMed:17244676, PubMed:18462208, PubMed:24926686). Expressed by a subset of mature neutrophils (at protein level) (PubMed:10753836, PubMed:28240246, PubMed:12377969, PubMed:18462208, PubMed:12675722, PubMed:17244676, PubMed:17580308, PubMed:21193407, PubMed:24926686, PubMed:28807980, PubMed:27227454). The percentage of neutrophils expressing CD177 varies across the population (PubMed:17244676, PubMed:27227454). Expressed in granulocytes of patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and with essential thrombocythemia (ET) (PubMed:10753836, PubMed:12377969). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10753836, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12377969, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12675722, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17244676, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17580308, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18462208, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21193407, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27227454, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28240246, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28807980}.
