Annotation genes

PDGFRA, PI16, DPP4

Annotation rationales

This identity denotes adipose mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells capable of stromal maintenance and adipogenic differentiation.

Functional implications

They replenish adipocytes, organize extracellular matrix and help coordinate vascular, immune and fibrotic responses during depot growth or repair.
