Cell type gene expression markers


This is a list of gene expression markers are used to define cell types. Green rows indicate canonical markers (classical markers used to define the cell type).

Summary: 8286 associations (178 cell types, 4679 gene symbols, 29 tissues); Last updated: 27/03/2020 10:44:00 CET

Description: Cells in the kidney that synthesize, store, and secrete the enzyme renin. They are specialized smooth muscle cells mainly in the walls of the afferent arterioles, and some in the efferent arterioles, that deliver blood to the glomerulus.
Synonym(s): JG cells, or granular cells
