TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityWidespread expression. High expression in stomach, small intestine, heart and thymus. Intermediate expression in colon, spinal cord and peripheral blood and low expression in brain, skeletal muscle and spleen. Expressed also on Th2- and Tc2- type cells, eosinophils and basophils. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11168006, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11208866, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12466225, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9973380}.
