Fig. 7: Colon-specific reprogramming of donor Treg after BMT.

a UMAP embedding of only colon-derived donor Treg cells (from n = 3 animals receiving the same graft) analyzed by scRNA-seq and colored by unsupervised clustering (Louvain). b Violin plots showing the expression distributions of marker genes across colon Treg clusters. c Expression of gene signatures (upper panels; genes listed in Supplementary Table 1) or selected marker genes (lower panels) across the UMAP embedding. Expression levels are in log2 scale and color coded as shown in the corresponding legends. d RNA velocity estimation is visualized on the pre-defined UMAP embedding. (e) Ratios of colon-enriched Trbv segments 12-1, 12-2, 26 compared to all other Trbv segments across sub-clusters in the UMAP embedding (left panel) or their enrichment across sub-clusters are shown (right panel; two-sided Fisher’s exact test with Benjamini–Hochberg correction). f Volcano plot highlighting genes differentially expressed between Treg expressing one of the three enriched Trbv segments (Trbv12-1, 12-2, 26) or any other Trbv segment (Wilcoxon Rank Sum test (two-sided), Bonferroni correction). Hash-dotted horizontal lines mark an FDR value of 0.05 (y-axis) and the log2FC thresholds of ±0.25 (x-axis). Selected genes are marked by coloring (red:up-/blue:down-regulated), triangles: extremely low p values were shifted to the indicated value. e, f Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
