Highly expressed in kidney, also detected on liver and spleen (PubMed:27599751). Expressed by proximal tubular cells of the kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:27599751). Expression highly increases during chronic kidney disease and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, where is detected in cysts (PubMed:27599751).
Secreted.
