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.
Summary (written by the submitters)
Tissue lymphatics are crucial for fluid homeostasis and immunosurveillance. We asked whether the lymphatics are adapted to the organ in which they reside, such as along the gut. Duodenal lymphatic capillaries (lacteals) displayed the mot discontinuous tight junction composition versus lacteals at other sites, resulting in a dependence on duodenal lacteals for rapid dietary lipid uptake.

Duodenal helminths abrogated these features. RNAseq of LECs and the mucosa along the intestine revealed that LEC transcriptomes matched the functional profile of the local mucosa. Helminth infection reverses key duodenal signatures like lipid metabolism and immune activation, instead triggering lymphangiogenic and mucosal antimicrobial responses. We identified a putative VEGFR2/3 signaling gradient that may explain differences in tight junction along the small intestine at homeostasis. Inflammation-induced lymphangiogenesis and decreased fat exposure likely underlie duodenal lymphatic impermeability upon helminth infection, while microbial depletion acted additively on lymphatic restructuring. Our study provides molecular insights into lymphatic function along the intestine and stages lymphatic permeability as subject to dynamic regulation by environmental queues.

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 GSE271711_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 PRJNA1132969 and SRA study SRP518523. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
