Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing Reveals the Cellular and Genetic Heterogeneity of Skin Scar to Verify the Therapeutic Effects and Mechanism of Action of Dispel-Scar Ointment in Hypertrophic Scar Inhibition

Figure 5

(a) Heat map of marker gene expression in each cell population; colour indicates the expression level of the corresponding gene in the cell. (b) Dot plot map of marker gene expression in each cell population. (c) Ridge map of marker gene expression in each cell population. (d)–(h) Violin graph and tSNE/UMAP graph of marker gene expression in fibroblasts, macrophages, monocytes, T cells, and the endothelial subgroup. Left image: each dot in the figure represents a cell, and the darker the dot, the higher the expression of the marker gene in a specific cell. Right image: the X-axis denoted the number of cell subgroups, and the Y-axis denotes the expression of the corresponding marker genes in the cells.
