What it is
Single-cell RNA-seqGene activity measured in thousands of individual cells, so cell types can be told apart. Read from the summary: GEO's own type field only says 'expression profiling by sequencing', so confirm it in the paper.

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.

Foxp3 and BATF cooperatively direct cis-regulatory programs and gene expression for effector Treg cell differentiationImmunity · 2026
Summary (written by the submitters)
Mechanisms by which diverse transcription factors (TFs), particularly the master regulator Foxp3, shape the heterogeneous transcriptional and epigenetic landscape of regulatory T (Treg) cells remain poorly understood. Here, we discovered that Foxp3 cooperates with BATF to direct cis-regulatory programs and gene expression essential for differentiation of immunosuppressive effector Treg (eTreg) cells.
Read the full summary ↓
Simultaneous single-cell chromatin accessibility and transcriptome profiling, combined with topic modeling, identified cis-regulatory elements and associated programs jointly regulated by these TFs in eTreg cells. Genome-wide mapping of Treg cell-specific BATF and eTreg cell-specific Foxp3 binding sites revealed their co-binding at some of these cis-elements, synergistically enhancing accessibility and transcription. Furthermore, we provide evidence that Foxp3 interacts with specific TFs to orchestrate diverse cis-regulatory programs among Treg cell differentiation states. Thus, Foxp3 serves as a master, but context-dependent regulator, cooperating with other TFs, including BATF, to shape the heterogeneous cis-regulatory and transcriptional landscape critical for functional Treg cell differentiation.

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 GSE267967_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: Single-cell studies usually ship their counts as 10x files (matrix.mtx, barcodes.tsv, features.tsv), an .h5 file, or an .rds / .h5ad object that Seurat or Scanpy can open. Look for those among the supplementary files.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1113962 and SRA study SRP508910. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
26 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 26 sample titles: 26 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.
