Why this annotation

Hub genes include SOD1 (superoxide dismutase), SELENOW (antioxidant selenoprotein), HSBP1 (heat shock protein binding), CSTB (lysosomal cystatin), and PLPP1 (lipid phosphatase). Together these reflect a cellular stress-protective / antioxidant homeostasis program. NDUFB11 links to mitochondrial function. Module is upregulated in UC remission, consistent with restoration of protective glial programs after inflammation resolves.
