Twelve of them (RASL11B, CRYAB, IL7R, DCN, FMN1, HES1, IRF6, TNFSF10, PDE4B, LRCH2, AHCYL1 and MNT) are associated with Atherosclerosis (a condition where EndMT is known to play a role) according to the CTD Gene-Disease Associations dataset and the gene set enrichment analysis (Supplemental Fig. 3E).
