Additionally, genes that we previously identified to be higher expressed in sarcoidosis patient lesional skin macrophages, were also higher expressed in GA-associated macrophages in Tsc2KO mice compared to macrophages of control (Tsc2WT) mice: Ethe1, Ebp, Msmo1 (Fig. 5E), Aldoc, Mvk, Sqle, and Ldlr (Fig. S5B). This evidence concerns the gene MSMO1 and sarcoidosis.
