Figure Lengend Snippet: Evaluating Roles for Sarcospan in Immune Cell Function and Hematopoietic Cell Lineages. (A) Immune-related functional relationship networks were examined using ImmuNet and shown for the SSPN protein in the hematopoietic cell lineage dataset at a confidence level > 0.8949. (B) The table shows the eleven strongest functional relationships between hematopoietic cell lineages and SSPN. In (A) extracellular flow cytometry was utilized to identify SSPN-expressing immune cells in WT C57BL6/J mice. SSPN was detected on unstimulated B cells, CD11b+, and CD11c+ cells while unstimulated granulocytes and T cells had either no or low SSPN expression. In (B) B cells obtained from WT male and female mice exhibit similar SSPN expression profiles. In (C) RNA-seq data (nTPM) is plotted from the Human Protein Atlas for different B cell types (naïve, non-switched memory, switched memory, plasmablast, exhausted memory) (Monaco et al. 2019).
