Tissue SpecificityDetected in endothelial cells from colorectal cancer, and in endothelial cells from primary cancers of the lung, liver, pancreas, breast and brain. Not detectable in endothelial cells from normal tissue. Expressed in fibrovascular membrane with increased expression in individuals with proliferative diabetic retinopathy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10947988, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11559528, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17560052, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18316703}.
