Association between TE expression and IFN is prominent in SLE PMN cells comparing to other cell types. A Boxplots show the TE score among different cell types in SLE and healthy controls. B Heatmap shows the correlation between TE score and three modules of IFN genes in various cell types. Number denotes the value of R^2 in linear regression. C Correlation between the TE score and three modules of IFN in PMNs. D Correlation plots depict the expression of each TE subfamily in relation to the GSVA Reactome pathway score in neutrophils. The pathways exhibiting the highest average correlation with the 75 TEs are illustrated, with color indicating the R value derived from Pearson correlation
