Expressed in placenta, endothelial and epithelial cells, non laboring and laboring term myometrium, fibroblasts and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF), prostate cancer cells and invasive adenocarcinoma (at protein level). Ubiquitously expressed, but is most abundant in placenta. In brain regions, expressed as a 2.8 kb transcript in basal forebrain, frontal cortex, thalamus, hippocampus, caudate and putamen.
