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.
Summary (written by the submitters)
Different types of in vitro expanded stem cells can contribute to embryonic or extra-embryonic compartments after microinjection into blastocysts. However, whether stem cells could give rise to advanced gastrulating whole embryo-like structures with both embryonic and extra-embryonic compartments, without relying on a micro-injected host embryo, remains to be achieved.
Read the full summary ↓
Thus far, in vitro aggregated stem cells have failed to generate post-gastrulation embryos ex utero or in utero, which partially resulted from the lack of methods for prolonged expansion of embryos until advanced developmental stages ex utero. Here we adapt recently optimized platform and conditions for ex utero growth of natural embryos, to generate complete mouse synthetic embryos, with both embryonic and extra-embryonic compartments, and by starting solely from naïve ESCs. The latter is achieved following co-aggregating non-transduced naïve ESCs, with Cdx2- and Gata4- transiently pulsed naïve ESCs, to promote their trophoblast and primitive endoderm lineage induction, respectively. The obtained synthetic embryos adequately advance in this platform through developmental milestones and accomplish gastrulation and develop organs progenitors within normally developed extra-embryonic compartments. Our findings highlight the plastic developmental potential of the naïve pluripotent state to functionally self-organize and reconstitute the entire early mammalian embryo.

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 GSE208680_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: Single-cell studies usually ship their counts as 10x files (matrix.mtx, barcodes.tsv, features.tsv), an .h5 file, or an .rds / .h5ad object that Seurat or Scanpy can open. Look for those among the supplementary files.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA860991 and SRA study SRP403522. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
