Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Rhinolophus Bat Antiviral Immune Signatures

Multi-tissue transcriptomes from six individuals of Rhinolophus pusillus and Rhinolophus ferrumequinum, integrated with public RNA-seq data from other mammals. The dataset, created by Lamei Zhao and last updated in May 2026, provides a 10.1 KB Excel file containing results from cross-species comparative analyses, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and lncRNA-mRNA regulatory network construction.

Use Cases

• Identify elevated basal antiviral immune gene expression patterns based on comparative transcriptomic analyses.
• Investigate tissue-specific regulatory modules and coordinated immune architectures based on WGCNA results.
• Explore lncRNA-mRNA regulatory networks involved in inflammatory response and DNA damage repair.
• Characterize transcriptional differences associated with viral infection tolerance between R. pusillus and R. ferrumequinum.

Strengths

• Data is derived from a multi-species comparative analysis integrating publicly available RNA-seq datasets.
• Analysis includes weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and lncRNA-mRNA regulatory network construction.
• Dataset is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, allowing for broad reuse and sharing.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain analyses.
• The dataset is very small at 10.1 KB, indicating it likely contains summary results rather than raw sequencing data.
