Why this annotation

Hub genes include PILRA (paired immunoglobulin-like receptor A, inhibitory myeloid receptor), LILRA5 (activating leukocyte Ig-like receptor), LILRB2 (inhibitory leukocyte Ig-like receptor), MYD88 (MyD88, central TLR/IL-1R signaling adaptor), HCK (Src-family tyrosine kinase, myeloid innate signaling), SERPINA1 (alpha-1 antitrypsin, anti-inflammatory serine protease inhibitor), CYTIP (cytohesin-interacting protein, integrin/Src signaling), and PAG1 (phosphoprotein associated with glycosphingolipid-enriched microdomains, Src kinase regulator). The LILR/PILRA receptor cluster combined with MYD88 and HCK defines innate myeloid receptor signaling. Upregulated in CD inflammation. Neighbor modules M5 and M17 also feature LILR family members, confirming a shared myeloid receptor signaling neighborhood.
