Marker genes

ABCA10, ADAMTSL3, ARHGEF28, CCDC102B, FBXL7, GOLGA8A, IFI44L, LAMA2, LINC01798, NFASC, PDZRN3, PTEN, RSAD2, WT1

Annotation genes

IFI44L, LAMA2, RSAD2, WT1

Annotation rationales

WT1 identifies mesothelial lineage; LAMA2 indicates basement-membrane output, while IFI44L/RSAD2 denote interferon-stimulated/antiviral readiness. Fits a serosal, barrier-adjacent ASPC subset common around visceral depots.

Functional implications

Serosal barrier support. Maintains mesothelial ECM, integrates antiviral and inflammatory cues, and potentially contributes progenitors to visceral adipocytes or fibroblasts during depot remodeling.
