A data frame containing metadata for samples from the Marthandan et al. (2016) study (GEO code GSE63577).
Usage
data(metadata_example)
Format
A data frame with 45 rows and 6 columns:
- sampleID
Unique sample identifier.
- DatasetID
Identifier for the dataset (e.g., "Marthandan2016").
- CellType
Cell type, e.g. "Fibroblast".
- Condition
Experimental condition ("Senescent" or "Proliferative").
- SenescentType
Mechanism of senescence (e.g., "Telomere shortening" for senescent samples, "none" for proliferative).
- Treatment
Treatment or age descriptor (e.g., "PD72 (Replicative senescence)" for senescent samples, "young" for proliferative).
