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
Mus musculus (mouse)
Samples
27 samples: 9 conditions, mostly in triplicateGroups 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)
Type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) are important for generating and sustaining antitumor immunity. Accordingly, the abundance of cDC1s in human tumors correlates with improved outcomes in cancer. Capitalizing on this role, we previously demonstrated that vaccination with murine cDC1s, generated in culture from bone marrow cells (termed here “in vitro–derived cDC1s”), elicits durable tumor control in multiple preclinical models; however, the immunological mechanisms underlying the efficacy of cDC1 vaccination remain unclear.

Here, we examined whether in vitro–derived cDC1s resemble tumor-infiltrating DC populations and whether MHC-I and MHC-II antigen presentation contribute to cDC1-mediated tumor control following vaccination in melanoma. As expected, MHC-I or MHC-II deficiency had minimal impact on the transcriptional state of cDC1s in homeostasis or following stimulation with the adjuvant poly dI:dC. Moreover, in vitro–derived cDC1s cultured under steady-state conditions closely resembled tumor-infiltrating cDC1s, whereas their poly dI:dC–stimulated counterparts resembled CCR7+ tumor-infiltrating DC populations, also referred to as mregDCs or LAMP3+ DCs. Our data further show that both MHC-I and MHC-II contribute to tumor control upon cDC1 vaccination and that coexpression of MHC-I and MHC-II on the same cDC1 is necessary for a robust vaccine response. We also identified an important function for host cDC1s in supporting the efficacy of vaccination with in vitro–derived cDC1s, as judged by impaired tumor control in Irf8 + 32−/− mice, which lack endogenous cDC1s. Overall, these results indicate that effective antitumor responses depend on MHC-I and MHC-II antigen presentation by vaccine-delivered cDC1s, with additional contributions from host cDC1s.

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 GSE338487_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 PRJNA1494553 and SRA study SRP717658. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Supports a between-group comparison across 27 samples.

How we read this: 9 replicated groups read from 27 sample titles; they account for 27 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.
