is it 4?

  #3

I am thinking, it is made inside cells and so to reach out, to the plasma there has to be exocytosed rather than endocytosed.

I just feel it should be constitutive, rather than regulated, since I dont know of many factors which affect levels of albumin in the blood other than renal and hepatic diseases.
