Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.
The label 'Vascular endothelial' maps to CL:0000115 (endothelial cell) as the parent term encompassing venous, arterial, capillary, and tip cell subtypes present in the data. CL:0002138 (endothelial cell of lymphatic vessel) is used to distinguish lymphatic endothelial cells in this atlas.
Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.
Vascular endothelial cells were identified and annotated based on canonical marker expression including PECAM1, CDH5, VWF, and CLDN5. CL:0000115 (endothelial cell) is used as the parent term covering venous, arterial, capillary, and tip cell subtypes present in the data. Blood vascular endothelial identity is distinguished from lymphatic endothelial cells (LYVE1+/PROX1+).
