T/NK
- SynonymsTerms that have the same, or nearly the same, meaning as the selected cell type.
- cytotoxic lymphocyte
- CategoryClass of which the cell type is a subclass.
- lymphocyteCL:0000542
- Rationale
- These are a cluster. of cytotoxic lymphocytes that are hard to categorize as either T or NK cells (or NKT for that matter). They display markers for both lineages, including T cell receptor subunit C TRDC as well as many NK markers such as KLRD1, and they display generally activated cytotoxic markers in high relative abundance - CCL4, CD69, GZMA/K, and NKG7
Inherited from celltype
- Set of Labels Description
- In this paper we used an automated iterative subclustering algorithm to find hundreds of cell state clusters, after which we merged unsupported clusters and annotated each resulting cluster with a better-known cell subtype. The high-res cell state clusters are annotated as subtype.gene1.gene2, so in some cases we didn't directly name some commonly named subtypes, such as pericytes. When we run DE on the resulting subtypes, we find many canonical and scRNA-suggested marker genes.
