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
10 samples: 5 × kidney glomeruli, Col4a3 wild-type vs 5 × kidney glomeruli, Col4a3 p.G799RGroups 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.

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid ameliorates renal injury induced by COL4A3 mutationKidney international · 2024
Summary (written by the submitters)
COL4A3/A4/A5 mutations have been identified as critical causes of Alport syndrome and other genetic chronic kidney diseases. However, the underlying pathogenesis remains unclear, and specific treatments are lacking. Here, we constructed a transgenic Alport syndrome mouse model by generating a mutation (Col4a3 p.G799R) identified previously from one large Alport syndrome family into mice.

We observed that the mutation caused a pathological decrease in intracellular and secreted collagen IV α3α4α5 heterotrimers. The mutant collagen IV α3 chains abnormally accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum and exhibited defective secretion, leading to persistent endoplasmic reticulum stress in vivo and in vitro. RNA-seq analysis revealed that the MyD88/p38 MAPK pathway plays key roles in mediating subsequent inflammation and apoptosis signaling activation. Treatment with tauroursodeoxycholic acid, a chemical chaperone drug that functions as an endoplasmic reticulum stress inhibitor, effectively suppressed endoplasmic reticulum stress, promoted secretion of the α3 chains, and inhibited the activation of the MyD88/p38 MAPK pathway. Tauroursodeoxycholic acid treatment significantly improved renal function in vivo. These results partly clarified the pathogenesis of renal injuries associated with Alport syndrome, especially in glomeruli, and suggested that tauroursodeoxycholic acid might be useful for the early clinical treatment of Alport syndrome.

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 GSE261588_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 PRJNA1087890 and SRA study SRP495248. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
5 × kidney glomeruli, Col4a3 wild-type vs 5 × kidney glomeruli, Col4a3 p.G799R

Supports a between-group comparison across 10 samples.

How we read this: 2 replicated groups read from 10 sample titles; they account for 10 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.
