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.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is defined as a declined cognition, measured by neuropsychological tests, that persists for months or even longer after surgery. Heterogeneities in the diagnosis of POCD usually involve differences in the test batteries, the cutoffs, and the timing of assessments. Although peripheral and CSF markers of neuroinflammation have been shown to correlate with increased risk of POCD, most of them are non-specific and cannot be used for POCD diagnosis.

These factors hampered the understanding of the pathogenesis of POCD as well as the development of effective preventions/treatments. In this study, we found Ttr in a panel of potential POCD biomarkers identified using time-series analysis of the transcriptomes and proteomes of the hippocampi of POCD mice that diagnosed on individual basis with composite Z-scores of test batteries consisting of Y maze and open field test. Compared with their counterparts without POCD, the levels of Ttr were significantly lower in the peripheral circulation as well as in the microglia and interstitials space in the hippocampi of the mice developed POCD at all indicated time points after surgery. Significantly lower levels of peripheral TTR were also found in human patients that displayed impaired cognition after abdominal surgeries, compared with those who did not. Endogenous expression of Ttr was verified in microglia cells both in vitro and in vivo. Results of in vitro assay indicated a potential role of Ttr in ameliorating LPS-induced microglial priming and protecting the differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) in proinflammatory microenvironment, which was one of the determinant factors in regulating the pathological progression of POCD.

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 GSE276942_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 PRJNA1159782 and SRA study SRP532115. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
17 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 17 sample titles: 17 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.
