Divergence of Vascular Specification in Visceral Lymphoid Organs-Genetic Determinants and Differentiation Checkpoints.

abstract：:Classical and non-classical monocytes are two well-defined subsets of monocytes displaying distinct roles. They differentially express numerous genes relevant to their primary role. Using five independent transcriptomic microarray datasets, we ruled out several inconsistent genes and identified common genes consistent...
