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)

16 samples: 4 × liver, KO CLP, vs 4 × liver, KO SHAM, vs 4 × liver, WT CLP, vs 4 × liver, WT SHAM,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.

Summary (written by the submitters)
In sepsis, limited food intake and increased energy expenditure induce a starvation response, which is compromised by a quick decline in expression of hepatic PPARα, a transcription factor essential in intracellular catabolism of free fatty acids. The mechanism upstream of this PPARα downregulation is unknown. We found that sepsis causes a progressive hepatic loss-of-function of HNF4α, which has strong impact on the expression of several important nuclear receptors, including PPARα.
Read the full summary ↓
HNF4α depletion in hepatocytes dramatically increases sepsis lethality, steatosis and organ damage and prevents an adequate response towards IL6, which is critical for liver regeneration and survival. An HNF4α agonist protects against sepsis at all possible levels, irrespectively of bacterial loads, suggesting HNF4α is crucial in disease tolerance to sepsis. In conclusion, hepatic HNF4α fails in sepsis, causing PPARα downregulation and metabolic problems and a disturbed IL6-mediated acute phase response. The data open new insights and therapeutic options in sepsis.

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 GSE260635_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 PRJNA1082376 and SRA study SRP492690. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
4 × liver, KO CLP, vs 4 × liver, KO SHAM, vs 4 × liver, WT CLP, vs 4 × liver, WT SHAM,

Supports a between-group comparison across 16 samples.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 16 sample titles; they account for 16 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.
