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
15 samples: 5 × Control mouse (cortex) # vs 5 × Microglia depletion (cortex) # vs 5 × microglia-repopulated condition (cortex) #Groups 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.

Microglia modulate the cerebrovascular reactivity through ectonucleotidase CD39Nature communications · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Microglia and the border-associated macrophages contribute to the modulation of cerebral blood flow, but the mechanisms have remained uncertain. Here, we show that microglia regulate the cerebral blood flow baseline and the responses to whisker stimulation or intra-cisternal magna injection of adenosine triphosphate, but not intra-cisternal magna injection of adenosine in mice model.

Notably, microglia repopulation corrects these cerebral blood flow anomalies. The microglial-dependent regulation of cerebral blood flow requires the adenosine triphosphate-sensing P2RY12 receptor and ectonucleotidase CD39 that initiates the dephosphorylation of extracellular adenosine triphosphate into adenosine in both male and female mice. Pharmacological inhibition or CX3CR1-CreER-mediated deletion of CD39 mimics the cerebral blood flow anomalies in microglia-deficient mice and reduces the upsurges of extracellular adenosine following whisker stimulation. Together, these results suggest that the microglial CD39-initiated breakdown of extracellular adenosine triphosphate co-transmitter is an important step in neurovascular coupling and the regulation of cerebrovascular reactivity.

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 GSE245107_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 PRJNA1026953 and SRA study SRP465816. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design

Supports a between-group comparison across 15 samples.

How we read this: 3 replicated groups read from 15 sample titles; they account for 15 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.
