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.
Organism
Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
14 samples: 7 × mCCDcl1 cells, aldosterone 24h, vs 7 × mCCDcl1 cells, vehicle 24h,Groups 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.

Transmembrane Serine Protease 2 and Proteolytic Activation of the Epithelial Sodium Channel in Mouse KidneyJournal of the American Society of Nephrology : JASN · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
The appropriate regulation of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in the aldosterone-sensitive distal nephron is required for sodium homeostasis and thereby for the long-term regulation of arterial blood pressure. A unique feature of ENaC is its activation by proteolytic cleavage. However, the relevant proteases involved in proteolytic ENaC activation in the kidney remain elusive.

Here, we examined a potential role of transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2). A mouse cortical collecting duct cell line (mCCDcl1) was used as a model system. We performed RNA-Seq transcriptome analysis of mCCDcl1 cells, which confirmed coexpression of Tmprss2 and all three ENaC subunits (Scnn1a, Scnn1b, Scnn1g) in this cell line. Importantly, high baseline expression of TMPRSS2 was detected in these cells without a stimulatory effect of aldosterone on its function or transcription. TMPRSS2 knockout in mCCDcl1 cells compromised γ-ENaC cleavage and reduced baseline and aldosterone-stimulated transepithelial short-circuit currents, which could be rescued by chymotrypsin. A compensatory transcriptional upregulation of other proteases was not observed. From these findings we conclude that TMPRSS2 is likely to contribute to proteolytic ENaC activation in the kidney.

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 GSE274305_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.
