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
14 samples: 4 × WT CLP24h vs 4 × ZBP1ko Sham vs 3 × WT Sham vs 3 × ZBP1ko CLPGroups 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)
Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI), characterized by severe hypoxemia and pulmonary leakage, remains a leading cause of mortality in intensive care units. The exacerbation of ALI during sepsis is largely attributed to uncontrolled inflammatory responses and endothelial dysfunction. Emerging evidences suggest an important role of Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) as a sensor in innate immune to drive inflammatory signaling and cell death during infections.

However, the role of ZBP1 in sepsis-induced ALI has yet to be defined. We utilized ZBP1 knockout mice and combined single-cell RNA sequencing with experimental validation to investigate ZBP1's roles in the regulation of macrophages and lung endothelial cells during sepsis. We demonstrate that in sepsis, ZBP1 deficiency in macrophages reduces mitochondrial damage and inhibits glycolysis, thereby altering the metabolic status of macrophages. Consequently, this metabolic shift leads to a reduction in the differentiation of macrophages into pro-inflammatory states and decreases macrophage pyroptosis triggered by activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. These changes significantly weaken the inflammatory signaling pathways between macrophages and endothelial cells, and alleviate endothelial dysfunction and cellular damage. These findings reveal important roles for ZBP1 in mediating multiple pathological processes involved in sepsis-induced ALI by modulating the functional states of macrophages and endothelial cells, thereby highlighting its potential as a promising therapeutic target.

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 GSE278767_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 PRJNA1168866 and SRA study SRP536571. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design

Supports a between-group comparison across 14 samples.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 14 sample titles; they account for 14 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.
