CD1A and cancer: EPCAM and KRT19 were common epithelial and cancer cell markers; collagen genes, including COL1A1 and ACTA2 (encoding α-SMA protein) were cancer associated fibroblasts (CAF) and myofibroblasts markers; CD1C (encoding BDCA1 protein), CD1A, were dendritic cell markers; CD14, CD68 were common macrophage markers; CD3D, CD8A were used as T cell markers, VWF, EMCN (encoding ENDOMUCIN) were known endothelial cell markers.
