Follicle associated enterocyte (FAE)
Ontology Term
- follicle associated enterocyteCL:4052011
Synonyms
Terms that have the same, or nearly the same, meaning as the selected cell type.- unknown
Category
Class of which the cell type is a subclass.- epithelial cellCL:0000066
Ontology Assessment
Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.- —
Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.- CCL20, IL15, CCL25, ANPEP
Rationale
- a high abundance of CCL genes and IL15 in absorptive epithelial subclusters points to a potentially follicle associated enterocyte group. CCL20 is the canonical marker for these, but isn't found in marker lists.
Inherited from Prelim annotation
- Set of Labels Description
- Cell annotations (Prelim annotation) are based on the finest possible label that could be used to describe each of the ~500 clusters found during integration and subclustering
