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
Homo sapiens (human)
Samples
20 samples: 10 × NO vs 10 × DOGroups 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)
The increasing incidence of diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) among women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART) poses significant challenges, as DOR is associated with lower pregnancy and live birth rates. This study aimed to investigate the molecular signatures related to ageing in women with DOR and their potential implications for understanding the underlying mechanisms of DOR.

We collected peripheral blood samples from 20 infertile women under 40 years of age, including 10 patients with DOR and 10 with normal ovarian reserve (NOR). Using DESeq2, we identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the DOR and NOR groups. DOR-related ageing genes were obtained by intersecting DEGs with three senescence-related databases (CellAge, CSGene, SenMayo). Transcriptomic profiling identified 14 ageing-related DEGs, of which E2F2, SYT1, BNIP3L, AREG, FOXO3, CTNNAL1, RBM38, BCL2L1, ALOX15B, MITF, TOP1, TRIM10, and PCGF2 were upregulated, and PROX1 was downregulated, in the DOR group. Functional enrichment analysis indicated a strong association between these DEGs and processes related to oxidative stress, apoptosis, and mitochondrial dysfunction. The findings underscore the systemic molecular ageing abnormalities present in women with DOR, providing insights into potential targets for therapeutic intervention aimed at improving ART outcomes.

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 GSE315266_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 PRJNA1395527 and SRA study SRP658861. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
10 × NO vs 10 × DO

Supports a between-group comparison across 20 samples.

How we read this: 2 replicated groups read from 20 sample titles; they account for 20 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.
