Figure 1

Scheme of the proposed approach to obtain candidate markers starting from several cell mixtures that contain the cell type of interest and an estimate of its proportion in each mixture. After gene expression profiling by a high-throughput technology, the expression of genes uniquely expressed in the cell type of interest should best correlate with the cell proportion estimates.
