Summary (written by the submitters)
Medulloblastoma, the most common malignant pediatric brain tumour is currently treated with non-specific cytotoxic therapies including surgery, whole brain radiation, and aggressive chemotherapy. As medulloblastoma exhibits marked intertumoural heterogeneity, with at least four distinct molecular variants, prior attempts to identify targets for therapy have been underpowered due to small samples sizes.

Here we report somatic copy number aberrations (SCNAs) in 1087 unique medulloblastomas. SCNAs are more common than SNVs in medulloblastoma, and are predominantly subgroup enriched. The most common region of focal copy number gain is a tandem duplication of the Parkinson's disease gene SNCAIP, which is exquisitely restricted to Subgroup 4alpha. Recurrent translocations of PVT1, including PVT1-MYC and PVT1-NDRG1 that arise through localized chromosomal shattering (topochromothripsis) are restricted to Group 3 tumours. Numerous actionable SCNAs, including recurrent events targeting TGFbeta signaling in Group 3, and NF-kappaB signaling in Group 4 suggest future avenues for rational, targeted therapy This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI, 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.

All supplementary files ↗
3 · The original raw files

Whole study · RAW.tar

Everything the authors deposited as one archive (GSE37385_RAW.tar), including the raw array or instrument files. Can be large; the picker in step 2 takes just the samples you need.

What the files usually look like: For arrays the series matrix is normally the normalised expression table you want; the raw array files (CEL and similar) are in the RAW.tar.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA161029. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
