Summary (written by the submitters)
Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers due to its high metastasis rate in liver. However, little is known about the molecular features of hepatic metastases due to difficulty in obtaining fresh tissues and low tumor cellularity. Methods and Results: We conducted RNA sequencing for synchronous surgically resected PTs and the paired HMs from 14 hepatic oligometastatic PDACs and experimentally validated our findings in specimens from 35 of such cases.

The comprehensive analysis of gene expressions showed largely similarity between PTs and HMs. However, hepatic metastases also showed unique characteristics, such as stronger abilities of proliferation, downregulation of EMT activity and metabolic rewiring. More interesting, altered tumor microenvironments were observed in hepatic metastases, especially higher proportion of tumor infiltrating M2 macrophage and upregulation of complement cascade. Further experiments demonstrate that expression of C1q increased continuously from normal to PTs to HMs, C1q was mainly produced from M2 macrophage, and C1q promoted migration and invasion of PDAC cells. Conclusion: Taken together, we found potential factors that contribute to different stages of PDAC metastasis. Our study broadens the understandings of molecular mechanisms driving PDAC metastasis.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE151580_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA636396. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
