Why this annotation

Hub genes include INPP4A (phosphoinositide phosphatase, PI signaling), FRMD4A (FERM domain, polarity/adhesion), FCHO2 (FCH domain, clathrin-mediated endocytosis initiation), TCF7L2 (Wnt pathway transcription factor), SLC8A1 (sodium-calcium exchanger), RUNX2 (transcription factor), TET3 (DNA demethylase, epigenetic), MEF2A (transcription factor), TIAM1 (Rac1 GEF, migration), PRKCA (PKC alpha, signaling). The module is highly mixed with all-weak memberships. The most coherent sub-theme involves transcription factor activity (TCF7L2, RUNX2, MEF2A, TET3) combined with PI/calcium signaling (INPP4A, PRKCA, SLC8A1). This likely represents a loosely co-varying transcriptional regulatory program in macrophages.
