Summary (written by the submitters)
Nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 2 (NR4A2) is a widely expressed immediate early gene induced by a host of physiological signals such as growth factors, cytokines, and neurotransmitters. In the adult mammalian heart, including in cardiomyocytes, NR4A2 mRNAs increase more than 60-fold in response to beta-adrenergic stimulation.

However, the nature of the transcriptional remodeling induced by NR4A2 in the stressed heart has remained poorly investigated. We show here that NR4A2 activation in mouse cardiomyocytes profoundly alters the sub-transcriptomes controlling metabolic pathways and calcium transients in the heart. At the metabolic level, NR4A2 induced the expression of glycolytic enzymes while simultaneously down-regulating fatty acid oxidation. Increased NR4A2 expression was also associated with the repression of several genes critical for t-tubules formation, dyads organization, and calcium flux. The findings shed light on a novel regulatory mechanism controlling cardiac homeostasis, and establish a framework to investigate further the roles played by NR4A2 in fetal reprogramming of the adult mammalian heart under various stress conditions.

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 GSE294805_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 PRJNA1251628 and SRA study SRP579168. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

How we read this: 8 replicated groups read from 32 sample titles; they account for 24 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.
