Summary (written by the submitters)
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is considered the only curative option for certain malignant hematopoietic disorders, yet its benefits are limited by the developmentof graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Chronic GVHD (cGVHD) is often characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis, propagated by alloreactive donor B- and T-cell involvement.

Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) is the downstream effector in the B-cell receptor signaling pathway and further has a crucial role in mast cell activation, both of which are critical in the pathogenesis of cGVHD. Selective inhibition of BTK may be beneficial in ameliorating cGVHD pathogenesis. In this study, we evaluated the efficiency of acalabrutinib, a highly selective Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor using a murine sclerodermatous cGVHD model. Recipient BALB/c mice received total body irradiation (800cGy), followed by infusion of bone marrow and splenocytes of either syngeneic (BALB/c) or allogeneic (B10.D2) mice and were subsequently treated with acalabrutinib or control from starting three weeks after HSCT until end of week 8. Mice were monitored for clinical signs of GVHD, survival, organ pathology of skin and other organs, and inflammatory mediator expression in serum and skin. Acalabrutinib treatment showed better survival, improved clinical cGVHD scores, and reduced skin pathology. Significant reductions in dermal thickness and skin fibrosis, and mast cell numbers in the acalabrutinib-treated group. In vitro, experiments on mast cell activation show increased pro-inflammatory chemokines CCL2, CCL3, and CCL4 were effectively inhibited by acalabrutinib in a dose-dependent manner. Chemokine analysis from serum samples revealed significant differences in CXCL10, CXCL13, and CCL22 levels compared to the allogeneic control group. Furthermore, the acalabrutinib treatment showed decreased B220+ cells and CD3 infiltration in the skin. RNA-seq analysis of skin identified genes associated with keratinization were downregulated with acalabrutinib treatment. Our results demonstrate that specific inhibition of BTK with acalabrutinib has a potentially beneficial role in ameliorating cGVHD and warrants further investigation in patients with cGVHD.

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 GSE310029_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 PRJNA1365024 and SRA study SRP644917. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
16 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 16 sample titles: 16 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.
