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
54 samples: 18 conditions, mostly in triplicateGroups 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.

Integral approach to organelle profiling in human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes enhances in vitro cardiac safety classification of known cardiotoxic compoundsFrontiers in toxicology · 2025
Summary (written by the submitters)
Efficient preclinical prediction of cardiovascular side effects poses a pivotal challenge for the pharmaceutical industry. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) are becoming increasingly important in this field due to inaccessibility of human native cardiac tissue. Functional changes in hiPSC-CMs such as electrophysiological abnormalities, are commonly studied and considered clinically predictive.

However, other clinically-relevant safety parameters, such as structural toxicity, are less understood. This study utilized hiPSC-CMs from multiple donors, cultured in serum-free conditions and treated with a library of 17 small molecules with stratified cardiac side effects, to establish an in-vitro drug screening protocol that leverages the power of morphological profiling with established functional readouts. High-content imaging of subcellular organelles, combined with multi-electrode array (MEA) data, was analyzed to identify cardiac safety clusters. Both supervised and unsupervised clustering revealed patterns associated with known clinical side effects. Overall, clustering based on morphological data more accurately reflected clinical classifications than electrophysiology alone. RNA-sequencing was used to support the mechanistic insights derived from morphological profiling, validating the former as a valuable cardiotoxicity tool. Results demonstrate that a combined approach of analyzing morphology, and electrophysiology enhances in-vitro prediction and understanding of drug cardiotoxicity.

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 GSE289264_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 PRJNA1222304 and SRA study SRP563155. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
