Etiology of congenital thyroid dysfunction in Down Syndrome: a multi-omics investigation

The goal of this study was to investigate dfiferences in the thyroid DNA methylome and transcriptome between fetuses with Down syndrome and fetuses with no genetic/developmental abnormality.

EGAD50000000387	The current data pertains RNA-sequencing reads obtained from thyroid samples acquired from fetuses with Down syndrome and fetuses with no genetic/developmental abnormality. Total RNA was isolated from left lobe from thyroid samples using a hand-held homogenizer and the Promega ReliaPrep RNA Miniprep System (Thermo Fisher Scientific). RNA yield was determined with the NanoDrop Microvolume Spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Fragmentation and mRNA library preparation was performed using the Kapa mRNA Hyperprep Kit (Roche, Basel, Switzerland). Libraries were equimolar pooled and quality was checked on a TapeStation system using the DNA1000 ScreenTape (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Libraries were sequenced with poly(A) selection to sequence all messenger RNA for gene expression analysis on the NovaSeq6000 PE150 (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA), producing at least 40M 150-bp paired-end reads per library.
