Bovine Preantral Follicle Transcriptome Differential Expression and Enrichment

Noemi Monferini published this dataset on figshare in May 2026. It contains results from transcriptome profiling of bovine preantral follicles, including lists of differentially expressed genes and functional enrichment analyses. The dataset comprises six Excel tables detailing comparisons between primordial, primary, and secondary follicle stages.

Use Cases

• Identify key genes involved in early folliculogenesis based on differential expression analysis.
• Perform functional enrichment analysis using the provided Gene Ontology Biological Processes results.
• Investigate signaling pathways active during follicle transition using the KEGG pathway analysis tables.
• Compare gene expression profiles between primordial, primary, and secondary follicle stages.

Strengths

• Dataset is structured into six distinct analysis tables (S1A-S1F) for clear organization.
• Functional enrichment includes both Gene Ontology Biological Processes and KEGG pathway analyses.
• Results are derived from DESeq2 analysis with a significance threshold (Padj < 0.05).
• Published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse.

Limitations

• The exact number of rows and specific column names are unknown, limiting detailed assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• The 412.2 KB file size indicates a relatively small-scale analysis.
