TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityHighly expressed in bone (PubMed:11746498, PubMed:17827158). Abundantly expressed in articular cartilage and chondrocytes and is increased in osteoarthritis (OA) (PubMed:11746498, PubMed:17827158). Colocalizes with ASPN in chondrocytes within OA lesions of articular cartilage (PubMed:17827158). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11746498, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17827158}.
