Integrated spatial transcriptomics (Stereo-seq) and bulk RNA-seq of cardiac sonogenetics in rodent heart tissue across time points [RNA-Seq]

First, spatial transcriptomics was performed using Stereo-seq (SAW v8.1.3) to generate spatially resolved gene-expression maps from heart sections, providing GEF outputs, tissue images, and associated QC files. Second, bulk RNA-seq was performed on matched heart tissue samples from wild-type (WT) and sonogenetic (MscL-G22S) groups across multiple time points to quantify gene-level expression changes at the whole-tissue level.

Raw sequencing files (FASTQ) and processed expression matrices (counts/TPM tables) are provided for both assays. Together, these datasets enable cross-validation of spatially localized transcriptional patterns with bulk gene-expression measurements.
