What it is
Single-cell RNA-seqGene activity measured in thousands of individual cells, so cell types can be told apart. Read from the summary: GEO's own type field only says 'expression profiling by sequencing', so confirm it in the paper.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Effective cancer immunotherapy relies on the clonal proliferation and expansion of CD8+ T cells in the tumor. However, our insights into clonal expansions are limited, owing to an inability to track the same clones in tumors over time. Here, we developed a multi-site tumor mouse model system to track hundreds of expanding and contracting CD8+ T cell clones over multiple timepoints in tumors of the same individual.
Read the full summary ↓
Through coupling of clonal expansion dynamics and single-cell RNA/TCR-seq data, we identified a transcriptomic signature in PD-1+Ly108+ precursor exhausted cells that strongly predicts rates of intratumoral clone expansion. The signature correlates with expansion in mice, both with and without immunotherapies, and in patients undergoing PD-1 blockade therapy. Expression of the signature during treatment corresponds with positive clinical outcomes. Downregulation of the signature precedes clone contraction – a phase in which clones contract but maintain revivable precursor exhausted cells in the tumor. LAG-3 blockade re-activates the expansion signature, re-expanding pre-existing clones, including previously contracted clones. These findings reveal how the study of clonal expansion dynamics provide a powerful ‘pan-immunotherapy’ signature for monitoring immunotherapies with implications for their future development.

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 PRJNA1301943 and SRA study SRP606831. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
