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

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)
Patients with hypertension or obesity can develop glomerular dysfunction characterized by injury and depletion of podocytes. To better understand the molecular processes involved, young mice were treated with either deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) or fed a high-fat diet (HFD) to induce hypertension or obesity, respectively. The transcriptional changes associated with these phenotypes were measured by unbiased bulk mRNA-sequencing of isolated podocytes from experimental models and their respective controls.

Key findings were validated by immunostaining. In addition to a decrease in canonical proteins and reduced podocyte number, podocytes from both hypertensive and obese mice exhibited a sterile inflammatory phenotype characterized by increases in NLRP3 inflammasome, protein cell death-1, and Toll-Like Receptor pathways. Finally, although the mice were young, podocytes in both models exhibited increased expression of senescence and aging genes, including genes consistent with a senescence-associated secretory phenotype. However, there were differences between the hypertension- and obesity-associated senescence phenotypes. Both show stress-induced podocyte senescence characterized by increased p21 and p53. Moreover, in hypertensive mice, this is superimposed upon age-associated podocyte senescence characterized by increased p16 and p19. These results suggest that senescence, aging, and inflammation are critical aspects of the podocyte phenotype in experimental hypertension and obesity in mice.

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 GSE255723_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 PRJNA1076227 and SRA study SRP489751. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
34 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 34 sample titles: 34 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.
