Figure 11. Transcription factor prediction of CAFs subtypes. (A) Ranking of transcription factors of type1 cells based on transcription factor specificity score (RSS); (B) Highlighting type1 in the t-SNE plot (indicated by red dots); (C) Binary conversion of transcription factor activity scores for transcription factors with higher RSS TCF21 (Z-Score normalization for all samples with a 2.5 dividing line to convert values to 0 and 1), highlighting in t-SNE plots (indicated by green dots); (D) Ranking of transcription factors of type2 cells based on transcription factor specificity score; (E) Highlighting type2 in the t-SNE plot (indicated by red dots); (F) Binary conversion of transcription factor activity scores for transcription factors with higher RSS ZC3H11A, highlighting in t-SNE plots (indicated by green dots); (G) Ranking of transcription factors of type3 cells based on transcription factor specificity score; (H) Highlighting type3 in the t-SNE plot (indicated by red dots); (I) Binary conversion of transcription factor activity scores for transcription factors with higher RSS MYEF2, highlighting in t-SNE plots (indicated by green dots); (J) Co-expression results of TCF21 and its target genes in different GEO datasets retrieved using SEEK.; (K) Co-expression results of ZC3H11A and its target genes in different GEO datasets retrieved using SEEK; (L) Co-expression results of MYEF2 and its target genes in different GEO datasets retrieved using SEEK. The x-axis represents different datasets and the y-axis represents the statistical significance of the correlation between target genes in each dataset. Functionally related and significantly correlated (p < 0.01) datasets are indicated by yellow dots.
