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.

Reparative immunological consequences of stem cell transplantation as a cellular therapy for refractory Crohn's diseaseGut · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Background Treatment strategies for Crohn’s disease (CD) suppress diverse inflammatory pathways but many patients remain refractory to treatment. Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is an emerging therapy for medically-refractory CD though the mechanisms through which it circumvents refractory pathophysiology are unknown.

Objective The objective of this study is to understand how the immune system reconstitutes post-SCT and whether SCT may function as a cellular therapy restoring appropriately responsive immune cell populations from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Design Adults with CD with active clinical and endoscopic disease who failed available medical therapies were enrolled in a Phase II study of SCT for refractory CD (n=19). Blood and intestinal samples were collected longitudinally and analyzed using CyTOF, scRNA-seq and TCRβ-seq. Stem cell autografts were functionally assayed in mouse xenograft models. Results scRNA-seq and CyTOF analyses reveal that SCT predominantly affected the intestinal myeloid lineage with loss of inflammatory populations and return of macrophages capable of supporting mucosal healing. Xenograft models using patient HSCs suggested HSCs support the early reconstitution of the myeloid lineage and reveal an impairment of short and long-term HSC engraftment that may determine SCT outcomes. Conclusions This study suggests SCT functions as a myeloid-directed cellular therapy reinforcing the critical role of macrophages in refractory CD pathophysiology and as a target for cellular therapies. Furthermore, we report an unrecognized functional heterogeneity among HSC subpopulations in CD that may be relevant to our understanding of CD treatment and pathophysiology.

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 GSE284677_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 PRJNA1200031 and SRA study SRP552438. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
36 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 36 sample titles: 36 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.
