snRNA-seq of human of the human retinal pigment epithelium and the choroid - endothelial cells

Arterial

Ontology Term: endothelial cell of arteryCL:1000413
Synonyms Terms that have the same, or nearly the same, meaning as the selected cell type.: arterial endothelial cell
Category Class of which the cell type is a subclass.: blood vessel endothelial cellCL:0000071
Ontology Assessment Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.: —
Marker Gene Evidence Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.: SEMA3G, DLL4, ELN, FBLN5
Canonical Marker Genes: ELN
Negative Marker Genes Genes expected to be absent, or expressed at a notably low level, in these cells, and whose absence supports the assignment of this cell annotation.: —
Rationale: This endothelial cell of artery sub-class is annotated by the markers SEMA3G, DLL4, ELN, FBLN5. Compared with Ecs from ateriole, it shows higher expression of those marker genes.

Set of Labels Description: This cell annotation dataset is a subset of the human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and choroid snRNA-seq atlas from the human eye. It includes 99,457 endothelial cells, which were classified into five distinct endothelial cell types.
Annotation Method: manual
