Why this annotation

Hub gene HIF1A is the master hypoxia transcription factor. Supporting genes include CRELD2 (ER stress/UPR induced by hypoxia), RAB13 (tight junction/vesicle trafficking regulated by hypoxia), NECTIN2 (cell adhesion upregulated in inflammatory hypoxia), LAPTM4B (lysosomal membrane protein upregulated by HIF1A), SPCS3 (signal peptidase in ER, co-regulated with HIF1A targets), FKBP1A (regulates HIF1A stability). Module is upregulated in UC/CD inflammation and reversed in remission, consistent with hypoxic microenvironment during intestinal inflammation. Neighbor context: this module represents the hypoxia arm of the broader inflammatory endothelial response seen across this batch.
