Figure Lengend Snippet: Tissue- and cell type–specific enrichment of SNP heritability for BMI and LUSC. A Tissue-level SNP heritability enrichment for BMI across 53 GTEx tissues estimated using LDSC-SEG. The x-axis shows tissues grouped by organ system, and the y-axis shows the estimated enrichment coefficient (log-scaled or standardized). Tissues surpassing the significance threshold (FDR-adjusted P < 0.05) are highlighted. B Tissue-level SNP heritability enrichment for LUSC using the same LDSC-SEG framework. The x-axis indicates GTEx tissues and the y-axis indicates enrichment coefficients, as in panel ( A ). Tissues with significant enrichment (FDR-adjusted P < 0.05) are labelled, illustrating the overlap and differences in tissue-specific genetic architecture between BMI and LUSC. C – G Cell type–specific SNP heritability enrichment for BMI and LUSC across single-cell RNA sequencing datasets from brain, ileum, heart, and colon, estimated using MAGMA-based cell typing. For each tissue, the left panel shows enrichment for BMI and the right panel shows enrichment for LUSC. The y-axis lists cell types (for example, neurons, epithelial cells, eosinophils, CD8⁺ T cells), and the x-axis shows –log₁₀(P) values for the association between cell type–specific expression and SNP heritability. Cell types with P < 0.05 are indicated in red, highlighting those most strongly enriched for the genetic signal of BMI and/or LUSC.

Article Title: Autoantibody repertoire analysis in paraneoplastic pemphigus reveals novel targets linked to mucocutaneous blistering and bronchiolitis obliterans

doi: 10.1038/s43856-025-01335-2

Figure Lengend Snippet: a Gene expression levels (Transcripts Per Million, TPM) of major autoantibody targets identified in paraneoplastic pemphigus, showing a marked enrichment in the skin and other squamous epithelia (data from the GTEx database, v6p.v1.1.8). Each bar comprises stacked boxes, with the width of each box representing the interquartile range of gene expression in the corresponding tissue. b – d Heatmaps showing normalized single-cell transcript expression levels (nTPM), summarized per gene and cell type cluster for selected tissues, highlighting SERPINB3 expression in bronchiolar cells. Single-cell expression data were obtained from the Human Protein Atlas.
