F4: DS_DPEP1+
- Full Name
- Dermal sheath_DPEP1+ (hair-follicle associated)
- SynonymsTerms that have the same, or nearly the same, meaning as the selected cell type.
- unknown
- CategoryClass of which the cell type is a subclass.
- skin fibroblastCL:0002620
- Rationale
- The F4: DS DPEP1+ population expressed markers which correspond to a well-defined dermal sheath population previously (DPEP1, MEF2C, and MYL4);(Ahlers et al. 2021) .
POSTN also markers this population in health. However, POSTN is upregulated by many fibroblast subpopulations.in disease.
Inherited from cell_type
