Summary (written by the submitters)
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the 6th most prevalent cancer and a chief cause of cancer-related mortality throughout the world. SIRT6 is a fundamental sirtuin that governs several disease processes encompassing inflammation and cancer, including HCC. Longevity in centenarian Ashkenazi Jews was recently associated to novel allelic variants of SIRT6 (N308K/A313S), which ameliorate genome maintenance and DNA repair, and suppress cancer cells.

It is currently unknown whether the above-mentioned SIRT6 variants display divergent or similar roles in HCC pathogenesis, compared to the wild type (WT) counterpart. In this work, our goal was to elucidate how these new centenarian-associated SIRT6 genetic variants may modulate HCC cell lines (HepG2 and Huh-7) aggressiveness and behavior, using functional and transcriptomic approaches. We demonstrate that adeno-associated virus (AAV2/8)-mediated overexpression of centenarian-associated SIRT6 variants hampered HCC cells proliferation, with transcriptomic data showing modulation of hallmark genes involved in the turnover of collagen/extracellular matrix (ECM). Also, we found that AAV2/8-mediated overexpression of SIRT6 N308K/A313S decreased invasion and also increased stiffness in HCC cells, as measured by nanoindentation, in a more pronounced fashion compared to SIRT6 WT. Intracellular stiffness is a property of the cancer cells themselves, which, along with ECM invasiveness, plays a significant role in the progression of HCC. In conclusion, these data suggest that increased intracellular stiffening mirror increased cell motility and invasive behavior, and it can be indicative of suppressed cancer development and progression by centenarian-associated SIRT6 N308K/A313S mutant.

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 GSE314110_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 PRJNA1390109 and SRA study SRP655985. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 18 samples.

How we read this: 6 replicated groups read from 18 sample titles; they account for 18 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.
