What it is
RNA-seq (gene expression)Gene activity measured by sequencing. The summary does not mention single-cell work, so this is most likely bulk: one average per sample, the usual starting point for comparing groups.
Organism
Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
18 samples: 10 × Ins1Cre_NRK1_Islet_KO vs 8 × Ins1Cre_NRK1_Islet_WTGroups are read from the sample names, not from the paper. Check the list below.
Data you can get
A processed table (series matrix) and supplementary files from NCBI; the raw sequencing reads from ENA. Which of these hold counts depends on the study, so check the file list.

Nicotinamide riboside kinase 1 protects against diet and age-induced pancreatic β-cell failureMolecular metabolism · 2022
Summary (written by the submitters)
Objective: Disturbances in NAD+ metabolism have been described as a hallmark for multiple metabolic and age-related diseases, including type 2 diabetes. While alterations in pancreatic -cell function are critical determinants of whole-body glucose homeostasis, the role of NAD+ metabolism in the endocrine pancreas remains poorly explored.

Here, we aimed to evaluate the role of nicotinamide riboside (NR) metabolism in maintaining NAD+ levels and pancreatic -cell function in pathophysiological conditions. Methods: Whole body and pancreatic -cell-specific NRK1 knockout (KO) mice were metabolically characterized in situations of high-fat feeding and aging. We also analyzed pancreatic -cell function and gene expression. Results: We first demonstrate that NRK1, the essential enzyme for the utilization of NR, is substantially expressed in pancreatic -cells. While NR treatment did not alter glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic islets from young healthy mice, NRK1 knockout mice displayed glucose intolerance and compromised -cells response to a glucose challenge upon high-fat feeding or aging. Interestingly, β cells dysfunction stemmed from the functional failure of other organs, such as liver and kidney, and the associated changes in circulating peptides and hormones, as mice lacking NRK1 exclusively in β-cells did not show altered glucose homeostasis. Conclusions: This work unveils a new physiological role for NR metabolism in the maintenance of glucose tolerance and pancreatic -cell function in high-fat feeding or aging conditions.

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 GSE208552_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 PRJNA860157 and SRA study SRP387085. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
10 × Ins1Cre_NRK1_Islet_KO vs 8 × Ins1Cre_NRK1_Islet_WT

Supports a between-group comparison across 18 samples.

How we read this: 2 replicated groups read from 18 sample titles; they account for 18 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
