What it is
Single-cell RNA-seqGene activity measured in thousands of individual cells, so cell types can be told apart. Read from the summary: GEO's own type field only says 'expression profiling by sequencing', so confirm it in the paper.

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)
Approximately half of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) relapse or are refractory to hypomethylating agents (HMAs) and experience poor clinical outcomes. We previously reported improved survival in a Phase I/II clinical trial combining the HMA guadecitabine with PD-L1 blockade (atezolizumab) in HMA-relapsed or -refractory MDS, yet the biological features associated with durable responses to this combined epigenetic and immunotherapy approach remain unclear.

Here, we performed integrated bulk and single-cell transcriptomic profiling of bone marrow samples from patients treated on this trial to identify molecular and cellular features associated with survival. Long-term survival was associated with the presence of immunosuppressive myeloid cells and primed dendritic cells at baseline, together with therapy-induced immune reinvigoration characterized by interferon pathway activation and expansion of effector lymphocytes. In contrast, short-term survival was associated with persistent senescence-associated inflammatory programs in CD34⁺ bone marrow cells and elevated expression of immunosuppressive immune checkpoint molecules. These findings suggest that chronic inflammatory and senescent microenvironmental states constrain effective immune activation despite combined epigenetic and immune checkpoint therapy. Here, we reveal distinct bone marrow microenvironments associated with patient survival after combined epigenetic and immune checkpoint therapy and suggest candidate biomarkers to guide patient stratification in high-risk MDS.

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 GSE326589_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: Single-cell studies usually ship their counts as 10x files (matrix.mtx, barcodes.tsv, features.tsv), an .h5 file, or an .rds / .h5ad object that Seurat or Scanpy can open. Look for those among the supplementary files.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1402330 and SRA study SRP662483. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
