Ontology Assessment
Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.- —
Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.- PLIN1, LPL, GPAM, AQP7, ADIPOQ
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 cell was annotated manually using canonical markers in the field (PLIN1, ADIPOQ, AQP7). We noticed PLIN1, PDE3B running differential expression.
Inherited from author_cell_type
- Set of Labels Description
- Lineage annotations were determined by Louvain clustering at resolution 0.1. Each lineage (fibroblast, muscle, immune, stromal) was then subsetted and reclustered. Final annotation resolution was chosen according to expression of biological markers; smaller clusters were combined were appropriate
- Annotation Method
- manual
