Selected data and study scope

This dataset contains bulk RNA-seq data from Homo sapiens, sampled from whole hypothalamus. The default comparison examines gene expression in Hypothalamic neural stem cells relative to Human pluripotent stem cells.

The explorer includes 1 track and 1 comparison for this dataset.

The default track, Hypothalamic neural stem-cell model, includes 3 Human pluripotent stem cells samples and 3 Hypothalamic neural stem cells samples in this comparison. These are analysis sample counts. Check the source for biological replication and pooling.

Interpretation and limitations

These data come from a cell-culture model. Check the cell line or differentiation system and the conditions sampled before interpreting a result.

Expression values are CPM (TMM-normalized): counts per million on library sizes adjusted by the TMM factors of the study’s own edgeR fit. This scale adjusts for library size and composition, not gene length. Use it to inspect a feature across the samples in this analysis. CPM values are not absolute transcript counts.

Evidence and verification

Pipeline QC review needed. Human hypothalamic neural stem cells — hPSC differentiation; all 1 registered contrasts on default track hypothalamic_nsc

Experimental design review needed. Human hypothalamic neural stem cells — hPSC differentiation; all 1 registered contrasts on default track hypothalamic_nsc

Author concordance not assessed. Author effect concordance has not been assessed

Pipeline QC can pass while experimental-design limitations remain. Read both assessments before interpreting results.

Open the dataset in the Explorer to read each check and its evidence. Author concordance compares effects for matched genes. It does not require identical author P values or FDR.
