Why this annotation

Hub genes HLA-A/B/C and B2M define MHC class I antigen presentation. PSMB8 (immunoproteasome beta subunit), PSME1/2 (PA28 proteasome activator complex) are core components of the IFN-γ-induced antigen processing machinery. IFITM3 is a canonical interferon-stimulated gene. CASP1 and TNFSF10 add inflammasome and apoptotic signaling. GPX2 reflects oxidative stress co-occurring with inflammation. Strong upregulation in both UC and CD inflammation with reversal in UC remission confirms an IFN-driven antigen presentation program in inflamed epithelium.
