Summary (written by the submitters)
Building upon a foundational Human Kidney resource, we present a comprehensive multi-modal atlas that defines spatially resolved versus unresolved repair states and mechanisms in human kidney disease. Homeostatic interactions between injured kidney epithelium and its surrounding milieu determine successful repair outcomes, while pathogenic signaling promotes unresolved inflammation and fibrosis leading to chronic disease.

We integrated multiple single-cell and spatial modalities across ~700 samples from >350 patients (~250 research biopsies), analyzing ~1.7 million cells alongside complementary mouse multi-omic profiles spanning acute-to-chronic injury and aging (>300,000 cells) and spatial transcriptomic analysis of 150 human biopsies. This cross-species atlas delineates functional pathways and druggable targets across the nephron and defines gene regulatory networks and chromatin landscapes governing tubular, fibroblast, and immune cell transitions from injury to either recovery or failed repair states. We identified distinct cellular states associated with specific pathological features that show dynamic distributions between acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), organized within unique spatial niches that reveal progression mechanisms from early injury to unresolved disease. Gene regulatory analyses prioritized key transcription factor activities (SOX4, SOX9, NFKB1, REL, KLFs) and their target networks establishing disease states and tissue microenvironments. These regulatory programs were directly linked to clinical outcomes, identifying molecular signatures of recovery and secreted biomarkers predictive of AKI-to-CKD progression, providing a key resource for therapeutic development and precision medicine approaches in kidney disease.

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 GSE308709_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 PRJNA1332574 and SRA study SRP624849. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
36 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 36 sample titles: 36 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.
