Why this annotation

This module is strongly enriched in inf_colono and significantly upregulated in both UC and CD inflammation, with reversal at UC remission. Hub genes are canonical interferon-gamma response genes: GBP4 (guanylate-binding protein, IFN-gamma induced), IDO1 (indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, IFN-gamma target, tryptophan catabolism), ICAM1 (IFN-gamma-induced adhesion molecule), ETV7 (IFN-stimulated transcription factor), IL18BP (IL-18 binding protein, IFN-gamma induced), PML (promyelocytic leukemia, IFN target), TRAFD1 (TRAF domain-containing, IFN signaling), CD274 (PD-L1, IFN-gamma induced), BATF2 (IFN-gamma-driven transcription factor), CIITA (MHC class II transactivator, IFN-gamma target). This is a tightly coherent IFN-gamma response module in inflamed colonocytes, distinct from the broader innate immune modules in the batch.
