Why this annotation

Dominated by chemokines CXCL1, CXCL3, and CCL20, alongside GDF15 (stress-induced inflammatory cytokine), ZFP36L1 (AU-rich element mRNA decay factor regulating inflammatory transcripts), EPHA2 (inflammatory signaling), and RHOV (Rho GTPase linked to inflammatory cytoskeletal remodeling). All genes are strongly enriched in pre_tuft cells. This module represents an inflammatory chemokine secretion program in pre-tuft cells, neighboring M80 which shares CXCL2 and additional inflammatory mediators, confirming a coherent inflammatory neighborhood.
