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
Homo sapiens (human)
Samples
68 samples: 68 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groupsGroups 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.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Background and Aims: Evidence for a genetic contribution to eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) exists from family and genome-wide association studies. Extensive investigation into rare variants contributing to EoE has not been performed. The Aim is to evaluate families with multiple cases of EoE by genomic and transcriptomic sequencing to identify genes predisposing to EoE.

Methods: We whole exome sequenced (WES) distant relative pairs (e.g., cousins) in extended EoE pedigrees and other affected relatives to identify rare, shared, potentially pathologic variants. Whole-transcriptome sequencing by RNA-Seq was performed in nuclear families with multiple EoE cases. We compared the overlap of genes from DNA and RNA sequencing for relevance to disease manifestations. Results: WES was performed in 50 familial cases in 21 EoE extended pedigrees. We observed 219 rare, candidate predisposition variants in 210 genes with complete sharing among all affected family members. Transcriptome sequencing was performed for 43 EoE cases in 18 nuclear kindreds, including 6 relatives without EoE. We observed 10,070 total differentially expressed genes compared to controls. We identified three genes (MUC16, ADGRE1, and TENM3) with evidence of rare variant sharing and differential gene expression among all affected family members. We identified 43 other genes with partial sharing of rare variants among affected family members and with differential gene expression. Several genes identified as prominent in EoE were also differentially expressed in unaffected relatives. Conclusions: Multiple genes related to immune response, barrier dysfunction, and cell adhesion were identified in familial EoE cases and unaffected family members supporting a genetic familial predisposition and a possible multi-hit background to disease pathophysiology.

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 GSE250595_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 PRJNA1054589 and SRA study SRP478977. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
68 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 68 sample titles: 68 distinct titles with little repetition. 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.
