Cell Metadata

Schwann-my

Ontology Term: myelinating Schwann cellCL:0000218
SynonymsTerms that have the same, or nearly the same, meaning as the selected cell type.: neurilemmal cell
CategoryClass of which the cell type is a subclass.: Schwann cellCL:0002573
Marker Gene EvidenceGene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.: PRX, MPZ, MBP
Canonical Marker Genes: PRX
Rationale: This myelinating Schwann cell sub-class is annotated by the marker PRX.

Set of Labels Description: This cell annotation set focuses on the trabecular meshwork (TM) and ciliary body (CB), key tissues regulating aqueous humor dynamics and intraocular pressure in the human eye. Using single-cell RNA-seq, we analyzed over 332K cells from 36 healthy donors, identifying 9 major cell classes and 19 sub-classes. As part of the Human Cell Atlas initiative, this dataset integrates transcriptomic and chromatin accessibility data and is publicly accessible via CELLxGENE and the UCSC Cell Browser, offering a valuable resource for understanding ocular physiology and disease mechanisms.
Annotation Method: manual
