Why this annotation

Hub genes include FCN1 (ficolin-1, pattern recognition receptor highly expressed on monocyte-derived cDC2s), CD300E (activating innate immune receptor on monocytes/cDC2s), LILRA2 (inhibitory Ig-like receptor), S100A4 and S100A6 (calcium-binding myeloid proteins), TSPO (mitochondrial translocator protein involved in innate immune sensing), CAPN2 (calpain protease), CSTA (cystatin A, cysteine protease inhibitor), ARHGAP26. Strong cDC2 enrichment throughout. FCN1 and CD300E are hallmark monocyte-derived cDC2 innate immune receptor genes. This module represents monocyte-derived cDC2 innate immune receptor expression, distinct from the differentiation program in M77.
