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
Head and neck cancerThis series is part of our curated briefing on it.
Samples
12 samples: 4 × OSCC PECA_PJ41 Control vs 4 × OSCC PECA_PJ41 Plasma vs 4 × OSCC PECA_PJ41 PRPGroups 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)
Platelets are involved in tumor progression by influencing cancer cell behavior through molecular and cellular interactions. In this study, we investigated the transcriptional response of PE/CA-PJ41 OSCC cells upon exposure to human plasma or PRP. Three experimental conditions were analysed: control, treated with 10% human plasma and 10% Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP).
Read the full summary ↓
After 48h, total RNA was extracted, and libraries were generated using polyA selection prior to paired-end sequencing on the Illumina NovaSeq X Plus platform. Twelve samples in total (four biological replicates per condition) were analyzed. The aim of this study is to compare the impact of plasma and PRP on gene expression in OSCC PJ41 cells, and to identify transcriptional changes specifically associated with platelets. This dataset is intended to serve as a ressource for understanding how platelets shape the tumor microenvironment and influence OSCC cell behavior at the molecular level.

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 GSE296894_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 PRJNA1261931 and SRA study SRP584712. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
4 × OSCC PECA_PJ41 Control vs 4 × OSCC PECA_PJ41 Plasma vs 4 × OSCC PECA_PJ41 PRP

Supports a between-group comparison across 12 samples.

How we read this: 3 replicated groups read from 12 sample titles; they account for 12 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.
