Why this annotation

Hub genes BAG3 (chaperone-assisted autophagy, anti-apoptotic), PPIF (mitochondrial permeability transition pore cyclophilin D), DNAJA4 (heat shock co-chaperone), PPP1R15B (constitutive stress phosphatase), TNFRSF10D (TRAIL decoy receptor/apoptosis inhibitor), TIPARP (PARP stress response), ICAM1 (inflammatory adhesion), and SLC25A25 (mitochondrial Ca2+ buffering) collectively define a proteotoxic stress survival program combining chaperone activity, mitochondrial stress protection, and apoptosis resistance. Increased in CD inflammation and UC remission. Neighbor context: sits adjacent to other stress/UPR modules (M39, M86, M102, M45), consistent with a proteotoxic stress neighborhood.
