Why this annotation

HSF1 is the master heat shock/stress transcription factor; TRAF6 and TAB2 are core NF-κB pathway adaptors downstream of innate immune receptors; IL6ST (gp130) is the shared IL-6 family cytokine receptor subunit; ITGAV is an integrin involved in stress and inflammatory signaling; TP53BP2 links to p53-mediated stress responses; PTPN1 (PTP1B) modulates cytokine receptor signaling; ARIH1 is a ubiquitin E3 ligase. The module is upregulated in both UC and CD inflammation. The convergence of HSF1, TRAF6/TAB2 (NF-κB), and IL6ST points to a stress-responsive inflammatory signaling program.
