Summary (written by the submitters)
The β-thalassemia is a recessively inherited disease affecting millions around the world. Pharmacological induction of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is an effective therapeutic strategy for the management of β-thalassemia. DNA methyltransferase inhibitors are effective HbF inducers, however was not currently approved for β-thalassemia treatments.

Here we report that the newly developed non-nucleoside DNMT1 inhibitor DMT207 strongly reactivates the expression of HbF in HUDEP-2 cells and adult primary erythroblasts with minimal toxicity. Moreover, in a mouse model of β-thalassemia, the administration of DMT207 effectively induces the expression of mouse fetal- and embryonic-type hemoglobin, promotes the maturation of erythroid cells, and alleviates the splenomegaly of mice. Further multi-omics studies expose γ-globin as one of the most sensitive genes in response to DMT207 treatment. Mechanistically, DMT207 inhibits DNMT1 enzymatic activity through trapping DNMT1 into an open conformation and meanwhile enhances interactions between the conformationally-kinked DNMT1 and UHRF1, partially contributing to specific degradation of DNMT1. Thus, we conclude that DMT207 is a promising novel DNMT1 inhibitor that could benefit patients with β-thalassemia.

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 GSE298941_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: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1267699. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

How we read this: Read from 10 sample titles: 8 distinct titles with little repetition. 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.
