| Function |
May play a role in placental development. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10995572}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Secreted {ECO:0000305}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in placenta. Localizes primarily to differentiated syncytiotrophoblast throughout gestation as well as to a small population of villous cytotrophoblasts. Also detected in maternal blood and rapidly disappears following delivery, but is not detected in other adult or fetal tissues examined. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10995572, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12412044, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15608456, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15803460}.
