IL7R+ monocytes form a distinct subset detectable in synovial fluid. a Representative flow cytometry of IL7R staining of spondyloarthritis matched patient PBMC (left) and SFMC (middle isotype control, right) gated on CD3-CD14+ as per sequential gating strategy shown in Supplementary Fig. 1. b Results from 4 patients demonstrating comparative monocyte IL7R staining in matched PBMC and SFMC using flow cytometry. c t-SNE clustering of monocytes from single-cell RNA sequencing of spondyloarthritis patient SFMC showing 5 clusters (n = 3). d Single-cell monocyte expression of IL7R, LTB, CD14, CCL5, IL32, and TCF7 overlaid on t-SNE clustering in c. e Volcano plot of genes significantly upregulated in the SFMC monocyte cluster 4 compared to all other SFMC monocyte clusters with top 20 genes annotated. Wilcoxon rank sum test. f Heatmap of top 10 genes from the each of the five SFMC monocyte clusters identified in c
