FUNCTION: May be involved in the airway inflammatory response after exposure to irritants. May be associated with tumor progression. May play a role in innate immune responses of the upper airways. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted (By similarity). Note=Found in the nasal mucus (By similarity). Apical side of airway epithelial cells. Detected in nasal mucus (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Lung, upper airways and nasopharyngeal regions, including trachea and nasal epithelium. Specifically expressed in the secretory ducts and submucosal glands of tracheobronchial tissues. Highest expression in the trachea and progressive decrease from proximal (bronchial) to distal (bronchiolar) airways. Also expressed in lung cancers and some other types of cancer. INDUCTION: By all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). PTM: May be N-glycosylated. MISCELLANEOUS: Binds lipopolysaccharides. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the BPI/LBP/Plunc superfamily. Plunc family.
