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.

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.

MicroRNA-181a/b-1 enhances chondroprogenitor anabolism and downregulates aquaporin-9Osteoarthritis and cartilage open · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of miR-138 or miR-181a/b-1 on regulating chondrogenesis. Gene expression profiles were analyzed in human cartilage progenitor cells (CPCs) over-expressing either miR-138 or miR-181a/b-1 following 7 days of chondrogenic induction in high cell density pellet cultures under hypoxic conditions (5% O2).
Read the full summary ↓
CPCs were isolated from human osteoarthritic articular cartilage and over-expression of miR-138 or miR-181a/b-1 was achieved via lentiviral transduction of the precursor form of miR-138 or miR-181a/b-1. Control CPCs were transduced with lentivirus expressing a non-silencing (NS) control RNA sequence. Total RNA was harvested at day 7 of chondrogenic induction and subjected to RNA-Seq analysis.

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 GSE262978_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 PRJNA1095370 and SRA study SRP499191. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
