Marker Gene Evidence
Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.- COL22A1, TTN, ACTA1, NCAM1
Rationale
- MTJ myonuclei expressed COL22A1 together with TTN, ACTA1 and NCAM1, consistent with myotendinous junction-associated myonuclei.

- Set of Labels Description
- Cell annotations based on integrated clustering of human tendon single-nucleus RNA-sequencing data using Seurat. Clusters were annotated using canonical marker gene expression and comparison with published single-cell datasets, with refinement of selected populations by subclustering to identify distinct tendon cell states.
