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
Homo sapiens (human)

Lung cancerThis 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.

Lnc-RAINY regulates genes involved in radiation susceptibility through DNA:DNA:RNA triplex-forming interactions and has tumor therapeutic potential in lung cancersNon-coding RNA research · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Lung Cancer is the leading cause of cancer related deaths worldwide. Unfortunately, radiation resistance is a major problem facing lung cancer patients. Recently, we identified a group of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) known as linc-SPRY3 RNAs, expressed from the Y-chromosome, that play a role in radiation sensitivity by decreasing tumor burden in vitro and in vivo after radiation.
Read the full summary ↓
In this study, we found that the linc-SPRY3 RNAs are one large lncRNA that we named Radiation Induced Y-chromosome linked long non-coding RNA (lnc-RAINY). Through ATAC-Seq and Immunoprecipitation experiments, we show that lnc-RAINY interacts with DNA in a triple helix to change chromatin opening and gene expression. We also identified that lnc-RAINY regulates CDC6 and CDC25A expression affecting the induction of senescence, inhibition in cell migration, and cell cycle regulation. Furthermore, the administration of nanoparticle encapsulated lnc-RAINY into a lung cancer patient-derived xenograft model dramatically reduces tumor progression demonstrating its therapeutic potential.

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 GSE274485_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 PRJNA1146491 and SRA study SRP528179. 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.
