Tissue SpecificityMainly expressed in skin. Also expressed in keratinocytes, spleen, thymus, small intestine, peripheral blood monocytes, bone marrow, ovary, testis and skin. High expression in CD8(+), B-lymphocytes and naive CD4(+) T-cells. Restricted mostly to proliferating lymphocytes. Not detected in myeloid leukocytes or natural killer (NK) cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18046548, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18550855, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20194751}.
