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
Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
12 samples: 2 × T1 young D vs 2 × T1 old D vs 2 × T2 young D vs 2 × T2 old DGroups 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.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Ovarian somatic cells are essential for tissue function, but there are no ex vivo models which maintain the cellular heterogeneity, in addition to the cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions of this compartment. We engineered a novel ovarian somatic organoid model in which a stroma-enriched fraction of primary mouse ovarian somatic cells was cultured in scaffold-free agarose micromolds.
Read the full summary ↓
We sought to use this ovarian somatic organoid model to investigate mechanisms of ovarian aging and performed single cell RNA sequencing using primary ovarian somatic cells isolated from reproductively young and old mice, as well as organoids generated from young and old mice at days 1 and 6 of culture to assess age-dependent changes to cellular composition.

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 GSE273891_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 PRJNA1143554 and SRA study SRP523950. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
2 × T1 young D vs 2 × T1 old D vs 2 × T2 young D vs 2 × T2 old D

Supports a between-group comparison across 8 samples.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 12 sample titles; they account for 8 of them. 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.
