Why this annotation

KDM6B (JMJD3, H3K27me3 demethylase induced by NF-κB/inflammation), NFKBIZ (IκBζ, atypical NF-κB activator), IRF1 (interferon/inflammatory TF), BCL3 (NF-κB coactivator), MAP3K8 (COT1/TPL2, NF-κB pathway kinase), CD83 (activation-induced surface marker), and HIF1A (hypoxia-NF-κB crosstalk) define a strong NF-κB/inflammatory activation program with epigenetic remodeling. The highest delta_inflammation_CD (2.168) in the batch supports this. As a neighbor to M67 (NF-κB negative feedback), M65 represents the activation arm of the same NF-κB axis.
