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
Homo sapiens (human)
Samples
28 samples: 14 conditions, mostly in duplicateGroups 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.
Paper
The transcription factor ZNF469 regulates collagen production in liver fibrosisJCI insight · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) - characterized by excess accumulation of fat in the liver - now affects one third of the world’s population. As NAFLD progresses, extracellular matrix components including collagen accumulate in the liver causing tissue fibrosis, a major determinant of disease severity and mortality.
Read the full summary ↓
To identify transcriptional regulators of fibrosis, we computationally inferred the activity of transcription factors (TFs) relevant to fibrosis by profiling the matched transcriptomes and epigenomes of 108 human liver biopsies from a deeply-characterized cohort of patients spanning the full histopathologic spectrum of NAFLD. CRISPR-based genetic knockout of the top 100 TFs identified ZNF469 as a regulator of collagen expression in primary human hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Gain- and loss-of-function studies established that ZNF469 regulates collagen genes and genes involved in matrix homeostasis through direct binding to gene bodies and regulatory elements. By integrating multiomic large-scale profiling of human biopsies with extensive experimental validation we demonstrate that ZNF469 is a transcriptional regulator of collagen in HSCs. Overall, these data nominate ZNF469 as a previously unrecognized determinant of NAFLD-associated liver fibrosis.

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 GSE287614_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.

Supports a between-group comparison across 28 samples.

How we read this: 14 replicated groups read from 28 sample titles; they account for 28 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.
