Tissue SpecificityDetected in blood plasma (at protein level) (PubMed:29899519). Detected in liver (PubMed:10698685). Detected in white fat tissue and placenta (PubMed:10866690). Expressed at high levels in the placenta, heart, liver, muscle, pancreas and lung but expressed poorly in the brain and kidney. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10698685, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10866690, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12015030, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29899519}.

Subcellular location [CC]Secreted {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10698685, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14583458, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17068295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19270337, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21398697, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29899519}. Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17068295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21398697}. Note=The unprocessed form interacts with the extracellular matrix (PubMed:17068295, PubMed:21398697). This may constitute a dynamic reservoir, a regulatory mechanism of the bioavailability of ANGPTL4 (Probable). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17068295, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21398697, ECO:0000305|PubMed:17068295}.
