Abstract excerpt
Spinesin/TMPRSS5 is a mosaic type serine protease that is predominantly expressed in the spinal cord. To identify the mechanism of spinesin expression, we investigated its expression in vivo and in vitro using several cell lines. Immunohistochemical and in situ hybridization analyses revealed that mouse spinesin (m-spinesin) was abundantly expressed in white matter astrocytes. Similarly, we confirmed abundant...
