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)
Topic
Breast cancerThis series is part of our curated briefing on it.
Samples
29 samples: 8 conditions, mostly with about 4 replicates eachGroups 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
Molecular profiling of chemotherapy-resistant breast cancer reveals DNA methylation remodeling associated with the acquisition of paclitaxel resistanceDrug resistance updates : reviews and commentaries in antimicrobial and anticancer chemotherapy · 2026
Summary (written by the submitters)
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy in women worldwide, yet treatment success is frequently compromised by the development of therapeutic resistance. The complex nature of this resistance necessitates in-depth investigation to identify the mechanisms underlying the resistant phenotype of tumor cells and to develop effective therapeutic strategies.
Read the full summary ↓
This study details the derivation and comprehensive functional and molecular characterization of doxorubicin- and paclitaxel-resistant breast cancer cell lines representing three distinct subtypes. Additionally, a triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cell line was used to explore the potential of the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor decitabine in reversing aberrant DNA methylation patterns associated with chemotherapy resistance. The study also evaluates decitabine's ability to enhance therapeutic efficacy in treatment-resistant TNBC.

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 GSE293933_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 PRJNA1247467 and SRA study SRP576918. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
8 conditions, mostly with about 4 replicates each
A_DAC ×4 A_DAC_DOX ×4 A_veh ×4 B_DOX ×4 B_veh ×4 A_DOX ×3 B_DAC ×3 B_DAC_DOX ×3

Supports a between-group comparison across 29 samples.

How we read this: 8 replicated groups read from 29 sample titles; they account for 29 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.
