Single-nucleus transcriptomic profiling of human skeletal muscle from healthy adults

Fibroblast

Ontology Term: fibroblastCL:0000057
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.: stromal cellCL:0000499
Ontology Assessment Disagreements with any aspect of the Cell Ontology.: —
Marker Gene Evidence Gene markers used by researcher to assign this cell annotation.: DCN, COL6A3, COL1A1, COL3A1, LAMA2, LAMC1, NID1, APOD
Canonical Marker Genes: PDGFRA, ABCA8, CFD, COL6A3, DCN, FBN1, GALNT15, GPX3, LAMC1, NEGR1, NOVA1, TGFBR2, TGFBR3
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: Fibroblasts were identified by a strong ECM/stromal program, with high DCN, COL6A3, LAMA2, LAMC1, NID1, and APOD, and clear differential upregulation of matrix components such as DCN and COL6A3.

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.
