Why this annotation

CXCL9 is a hallmark IFN-γ-induced chemokine attracting T cells and NK cells. SUCNR1 (succinate receptor) is upregulated on inflammatory macrophages/monocytes sensing metabolic danger signals. IL2RA and IL2RG encode IL-2 receptor subunits indicating cytokine-driven activation. APOL3 and ANKRD22 are interferon-stimulated genes. ATF5 and NFE2L3 are stress-responsive transcription factors. This module reflects IFN-γ-driven monocyte activation with metabolic inflammation sensing in IBD.
