Summary (written by the submitters)
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infections are one of the most common causes of acute viral hepatitis, annually causing over 3 million symptomatic cases and 70,000 deaths worldwide. Historically, HEV was described as a hepatotropic virus, but has recently been associated with various extrahepatic manifestations including neurological disorders such as Guillain-Barré syndrome and neuralgic amyotrophy.

However, the underlying pathogenesis of these neurological diseases remains largely unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate extrahepatic HEV manifestations in a neuronal model system using human induced primary neurons (iPNs). Renal epithelial cells from human urine were reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to generate neuronal progenitor cells, which were subsequently differentiated into iPNs over 21 days. These iPNs supported HEV infection preferentially in neurite-bearing cells. Transcriptional profiling of the neuronal development process as well as viral infection dynamics in iPNs uncovered a lack of antiviral innate immune responses to HEV infection with only an intrinsic expression of distinct interferon-regulated genes (ISGs) and signaling molecules. Viral open reading frame 2 (ORF2) encoded capsid protein could be visualized by volumetric three-dimensional reconstitution within the neurites, which were reduced in length in an HEV inoculation-dependent manner. In conclusion, this neuron-derived human model system provides a powerful tool for studying extrahepatic manifestations of HEV infection. It further indicates a potential mechanism of pathogenesis driven by the interaction between host and viral factors.

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 GSE275473_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 PRJNA1151015 and SRA study SRP528100. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
10 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 10 sample titles: 10 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.
