Each dot represents an individual sample. Patient-derived transcript data are presented as medians, and paired ex vivo stimulated samples are shown as a spaghetti plot. Statistical analysis: Kruskal–Wallis with Dunn correction for nonparametric comparisons and one-way ANOVA with Tukey correction for parametric comparisons. ( C ) Principal component analysis (PCA) plot depicting the clustering of HMVECs based on treatment groups, with SCR-treated cells in blue and siGPNMB-treated cells in red. ( D ) Volcano plot showing differentially expressed genes between SCR and siGPNMB treatments. Genes significantly up-regulated in SCR (log2 fold change > 1.5, P value < 0.05) are highlighted in green, and those up-regulated in siGPNMB (log2 fold change < −1.5, P value < 0.05) are highlighted in purple. Nonsignificant genes are gray.

( B ) Pattern representing single-cell gene expression of GPNMB in macrophages, microglia, M-IMCs, and PNM-IMCs from GBM tumors based on scRNA-Seq dataset (EGAS00001004871). ( C ) Coimmunofluorescence staining for GPNMB (red) and F4/80 (macrophage marker, green) or CX3CR1 (microglia marker, green) in human GBM tumor samples. Scale bar: 50 μm. ( D ) Correlation between GPNMB expression and macrophage/microglia signature scores in IDH1-WT TCGA samples from patients with GBM. P and r values are shown. Pearson’s test. ( E ) The expression of GPNMB in macrophage-high ( n = 185) and macrophage-low ( n = 187) as well as microglia-high ( n = 185) and microglia-low ( n = 187) groups of IDH1-WT TCGA samples from patients with GBM. Student’s t test.
