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
10 samples: 5 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.

Summary (written by the submitters)
This study aims to elucidate the transcriptomic changes and metabolic reprogramming in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (GEP-NET) cells following PIKfyve inhibition, using both genetic (CRISPR-mediated knockdown) and pharmacological (Apilimod treatment) approaches. The research focuses on the impact of PIKfyve inhibition on lipid metabolism, cholesterol homeostasis, and mTOR signaling in QGP-1, BON-1, and GOT-1 cell lines.
Read the full summary ↓
By analyzing RNA sequencing data from these experimental conditions, we seek to identify differentially expressed genes and enriched pathways associated with PIKfyve inhibition. This investigation is part of a broader effort to develop novel combination therapies that could potentially overcome resistance to mTOR inhibitors, the current standard of care for advanced GEP-NETs. The study's findings may provide insights into the therapeutic potential of targeting PIKfyve-driven lipid metabolism in combination with mTOR inhibition, potentially offering new strategies to improve treatment efficacy and patient outcomes in GEP-NETs and other mTOR-driven cancers.

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 GSE293843_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 PRJNA1246577 and SRA study SRP576518. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
5 conditions, mostly in duplicate
QGP1_sgNC ×2 QGP1_sgPIKFYVE_1 ×2 QGP1_DMSO ×2 QGP1_Torin1 ×2 QGP1_Apilimod ×2

Supports a between-group comparison across 10 samples.

How we read this: 5 replicated groups read from 10 sample titles; they account for 10 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.
