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
28 samples: 28 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groupsGroups 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)
Glioma recurrence remains a major clinical challenge and is associated with poor patient outcomes. To characterize transcriptomic alterations associated with tumor recurrence, we performed bulk RNA sequencing on paired primary and recurrent glioma tissue specimens from 14 patients. According to the 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification of Central Nervous System Tumors, glioblastoma is defined as IDH-wildtype (IDH-wt), CNS WHO grade 4.

Based on these criteria, 11 paired cases were classified as glioblastoma (IDH-wt, grade 4), while three paired cases with IDH-mutant, grade 3 gliomas were included as a comparison group. Differential gene expression analysis was performed between paired primary and recurrent tumors to identify recurrence-associated transcriptomic changes. Functional enrichment and pathway analyses were subsequently conducted to investigate the biological processes and signaling pathways associated with the identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs). This dataset provides a resource for exploring the molecular mechanisms underlying glioma recurrence and may facilitate the identification of potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers associated with disease progression.

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 GSE339484_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 PRJNA1499048 and SRA study SRP720279. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
28 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 28 sample titles: 28 distinct titles with little repetition. 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.
