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.

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.

BAP1 dysregulation impairs trophoblast differentiation and contributes to placental dysfunction in preeclampsiaCell death & disease · 2026
Summary (written by the submitters)
Preeclampsia, a life threatening hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, is a leading cause of maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Its early onset form (EO PE), requiring delivery before 34 weeks of gestation, is particularly severe and closely linked to defective trophoblast differentiation. Here, we identify BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) and its cofactors ASXL2 and ASXL3 are upregulated in EO PE placentas.
Read the full summary ↓
Enforced BAP1 expression in human trophoblast stem cells reinforced epithelial identity, enhanced adhesion, and impaired both extravillous trophoblast differentiation and syncytiotrophoblast formation. Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analyses revealed suppression of lineage-specific pathways alongside maintenance of progenitor-like and pro-inflammatory signatures. In trophoblast organoids, excess of BAP1 disrupted syncytial maturation and induced interferon-driven pathways overlapping with EO PE transcriptomes. Together, these findings establish BAP1 as a key regulator of human trophoblast differentiation and implicate its dysregulation in the pathogenesis of EO PE, providing mechanistic insight into the cellular basis of placental dysfunction.

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 GSE311483_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 PRJNA1369537 and SRA study SRP648965. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 32 samples.

How we read this: 8 replicated groups read from 32 sample titles; they account for 32 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.
