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
Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
175 samples: 44 conditions, mostly with about 4 replicates eachGroups 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)
This study investigates the developmental impact of placental allopregnanolone (ALLO) insufficiency on the mouse brain transcriptome in an age-, sex-, and region-specific manner. We generated mice with reduced ALLO levels by specifically deleting the gene encoding the synthetic enzyme for ALLO (Akr1c14) in trophoblasts using an Akr1c14-floxed mouse with a Cyp19a-Cre mouse.
Read the full summary ↓
The somatosensory cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum of both WT and plKO mice were collected from males and females at postnatal days 0, 7, 15, and 30. Libraries were prepared using the Illumina TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library prep kit and sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq sequencer with 2 x 100 bp paired-end cycles. The analysis reveals sex- and region-specific transcriptomic changes following reduced placental ALLO, with differentially expressed genes associated with inflammatory signaling.

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 GSE306583_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 PRJNA1311349 and SRA study SRP613457. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 175 samples.

How we read this: 44 replicated groups read from 175 sample titles; they account for 175 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.
