Why this annotation

SOX7 (endothelial/vascular SOX TF), HEY1 (Notch target, arteriovenous specification), SMAD7 (TGF-β/BMP inhibitory SMAD), SKIL (SnoN, TGF-β/SMAD transcriptional repressor), and ARL4C (ARF GTPase, cytoskeletal remodeling) define a vascular/endothelial developmental program with TGF-β and Notch pathway regulation. WEE1 and CCNL1 add cell cycle checkpoint context. The significant delta_inflammation_CD (0.897 sig.) may reflect inflammatory remodeling of lymphatic endothelial identity. As a neighbor to the NF-κB and stress modules, this module may represent a developmental/identity program modulated by inflammation in intestinal lymphatics.
