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.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Organoids are emerging as a powerful human-based in vitro tool in the biomedical field. However, patient-derived liver organoids fail to recapitulate the liver epithelial heterogeneity and its generation still requires liver surgical resections, thus limiting personalized chronic liver diseases modeling. Here, we report the derivation of organoids from intact liver needle biopsies(b-Orgs) from alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) patients for precision disease modeling and drug testing.

B-Orgs were generated with an efficiency of 80% from patients with early and advanced stages of ALD. b-Orgs show an enriched hepatocyte phenotype as assessed by immunofluorescence, functional studies, and transcriptomics. Single cell RNA-sequencing revealed a heterogeneous epithelial composition comprising hepatocyte, biliary and progenitor hepatobiliary populations, mirroring the epithelial populations found in advanced ALD patients. Moreover, b-Orgs preserve disease-stage features, as b-Orgs from advanced ALD patients showed increased expression of genes related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition, angiogenesis and inflammation. Stimulation of b-Orgs with ethanol and pro-inflammatory mediators,promoted ALD features such asROS production, lipid accumulation, inflammation and decreased proliferation, which were mitigated in response to prednisolone. Overall, we provide a new methodology to obtain b-Orgs showing epithelial complexity and patient specific features, thus expanding organoid-based liver disease modelling for personalized medicine.

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 GSE273146_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 PRJNA1140246 and SRA study SRP522268. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
