Marker Gene Evidence

Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.

VWF, PECAM1, KDR, CDH5, SPARCL1, CD36, PTPRM

Canonical Marker Genes

ADGRF5, B2M, PTPRB, TIMP3, PECAM1, VWF

Rationale

Endothelial cells were defined by high expression of vascular markers VWF, CD36, SPARCL1, LDB2, PTPRM, TIMP3, and DOCK9, with VWF and SPARCL1 being among the most specific differentially expressed genes.

Inherited from author_cell_type

Set of Labels Description

Cell annotations were generated with scType using marker genes curated from related publications, and then manually reviewed and adjusted based on the top highly variable genes in each Leiden cluster.
