Transcriptome-based interactome analysis reveals that eEPCs express haematopoietic transcripts and OECs express endothelial transcripts. Differentially expressed transcripts were imported into visANT software to create gene networks. Diagrams show nodes representing genes, lines indicate interactions between proteins, and boxes denote functional categories. (A) eEPC interactome network, nodes in red are primarily haematopoietic. (B) OEC interactome network, nodes in red are highly expressed in endothelial cells.
