Canonical Marker Genes
- CD5L, VSIG4, CD163, SLC40A1, TIMD4, SLC1A3, FOLR2, MARCO, GFRA2, ADRB1, TMEM26, HMOX1, SLC16A9, VCAM1, SUCNR1
Rationale
- The marker genes are the top 10 DEGs between this population and the other myeloid cell types in the UMAP (from Table S2 in publication). In the publication we define a conserved mouse-human KC signature. These genes are listed as canonical marker genes for KCs.
