Tissue specific expression levels

PLGRKT gene expression levels are extremely high in Bronchial epithelial cells and lymphoblasts in the human samples shown by BIO GPS. While the Macrophage cells are missing in human tissues, the mouse tissue contain macrophage cells that show high expression of PLGRKT.
