Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.- FTL, LYZ, FTH1, C1QA, C1QB
Rationale
- This is another cluster of some difficult to determine group of monocyte or macrophages. It expresses markers for both, e.g. C1Q and LYZ (macrophage) but has highest expression of FTH1 and FTL, players in the ferritin blood cell iron scavenging pathway used generally by monocytes and macrophages to recycle RBCs. These may be closer to macrophage given predominance of catabolic pathways
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.
