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
12 samples: 3 × Myc-Cap, DMSO treated vs 3 × Myc-Cap, YJ1206 treated 24 h vs 3 × Myccap Tumor Vehicle vs 3 × Myccap Tumor YJ1206Groups 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.

CDK12/13 inactivation triggers STING-mediated antitumor immunity in preclinical modelsThe Journal of clinical investigation · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Inactivation of cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) characterizes an immunogenic molecular subtype of prostate cancer, marked by genomic instability and increased intratumoral T cell infiltration. However, the mechanisms underlying this phenotype and its therapeutic implications remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that CDK12 inactivation or suppression of its paralog CDK13 activates stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling across multiple cancer types.

Analysis of clinical cohorts receiving immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) revealed that reduced CDK12/13 expression correlates with improved survival and treatment response. Mechanistically, CDK12/13 depletion or targeted degradation induces transcription-replication conflicts and R-loop accumulation, triggering cytosolic DNA release and subsequent STING activation. Functionally, CDK12/13 degradation significantly delays tumor growth and exhibits synergistic effects with anti-PD1 therapy in various syngeneic tumor models. This combination enhances STING activity and promotes the infiltration and activation of CD8+ T cells within tumors. Notably, the anti-tumor effects of this combination require STING signaling and functional CD8+ T cells. These findings identify CDK12/13 as promising therapeutic targets for enhancing ICB efficacy, highlighting their potential to amplify STING-mediated anti-tumor immunity. This work provides a mechanistic framework for leveraging CDK12/13 antagonists in combination with ICB to improve clinical outcomes in cancer therapy.

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 GSE283088_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 PRJNA1191845 and SRA study SRP548221. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
3 × Myc-Cap, DMSO treated vs 3 × Myc-Cap, YJ1206 treated 24 h vs 3 × Myccap Tumor Vehicle vs 3 × Myccap Tumor YJ1206

Supports a between-group comparison across 12 samples.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 12 sample titles; they account for 12 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.
