Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
125 samples: 125 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groupsGroups 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)
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has improved outcomes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), yet there is an unmet need for predictive, blood-based biomarkers to guide treatment. We longitudinally profiled peripheral immune responses in a mouse HNSCC model treated with anti–PD-1, using single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing with paired TCR sequencing.
Read the full summary ↓
Early expansion of effector memory T cells (Tem) and B cells was associated with ICB response. Here, we show that the LiBIO score, a composite of Tem and B cell signatures, robustly predicts ICB response in HNSCC blood and tumor cohorts, outperforming existing biomarkers. Furthermore, the LiBIO score generalizes to melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, and breast cancer, demonstrating potential as a clinically applicable blood-based biomarker for ICB response across multiple cancer types.

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 GSE299683_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: Single-cell studies usually ship their counts as 10x files (matrix.mtx, barcodes.tsv, features.tsv), an .h5 file, or an .rds / .h5ad object that Seurat or Scanpy can open. Look for those among the supplementary files.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1276060. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
125 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 125 sample titles: 125 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.
