Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.
Pericytes in the gut tend to sub-cluster based on differential expression of functional programs, mostly paracrine/secretory modules versus contractile modules. This could also be a state change
Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.
Genes expected to be absent, or expressed at a notably low level, in these cells, and whose absence supports the assignment of this cell annotation.
—
Rationale
Defined by RERGL and NTRK2, suggesting a pericyte subset with enhanced contractile apparatus.
Inherited from hgca_celltype_v1
Set of Labels Description
Cell annotations based on two rounds of subclustering with scVI integration, sample_id as batch key. Cell annotations were refined by expert feedback based on "prelim annotation" on CAP. Prelim annotation is renamed "hgca_celltype_v0" here and the feedback on the "prelim annotation" is available by selecting a previous version of the Integrated Human Gut Atlas on CAP.
