Why this annotation

Hub genes include MYADM (myeloid-associated differentiation marker), KLF2 and KLF6 (Krüppel-like factors involved in survival and shear stress response), FOSB (AP-1 immediate-early TF), YPEL5 (small GTPase-related), BEST1 (bestrophin-1 chloride channel), JMJD1C (histone demethylase), IDS (iduronate 2-sulfatase, lysosomal), YWHAZ (14-3-3 zeta), RASSF5 (Ras association domain). KLF2 is a well-established flow/shear stress and survival factor in leukocytes. FOSB and KLF6 suggest immediate-early/stress activation. The module appears to represent a survival/quiescence or early activation state. The neighborhood context (neighbors M49 with IEGs, M46 with chemokines) supports an early activation/stress program. KLF2 in neutrophils is associated with retention in bone marrow and naive state.
