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.
Organism
Homo sapiens (human)
Topic
GlioblastomaThis series is part of our curated briefing on it.
Samples
24 samples: 24 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groupsGroups 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.

The invasion phenotypes of glioblastoma depend on plastic and reprogrammable cell statesNature communications · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Glioblastoma (GBM), the most common primary brain cancer in adults, is characterized by rapid local invasion along diverse routes, such as infiltration of white matter tracts and penetration of perivascular spaces. We investigate the hypothesis that GBM invasion routes correlate with the transcriptional states of individual cells and identify regulators of route-specific invasion.
Read the full summary ↓
Utilizing patient-derived GBM xenograft models, we integrate single-cell transcriptomics and spatial proteomics, revealing that mesenchymal and oligodendrocyte progenitor-like GBM cells migrate perivascularly, while neural progenitor and astrocyte-like GBM cells invade diffusely. Computational reconstruction identifies ANXA1 as a perivascular invasion driver and lineage-restricted transcription factors RFX4 and HOPX as drivers of diffuse invasion, predictive of patient survival. Genetic ablation of these genes alters invasion phenotypes and extends survival in xenografted mice, clarifying the role of cell states in GBM invasion, and highlighting potential therapeutic targets for selective invasion route targeting in GBM patients.

This dataset
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 GSE270083_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 PRJNA1124967 and SRA study SRP514393. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
24 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 24 sample titles: 24 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.
