The immune system comprises a complex network of genes, cells and tissues, coordinated through signaling pathways and cell-cell communications. However, the orchestrated role of the multiple immunological components in disease is still poorly understood. Classifications based on gene-expression data have revealed immune-related signaling pathways in various diseases, but how such pathways describe the immune cellular physiology remains largely unknown.
