• Brazilian Thyroid WES

  Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a rare malignant tumor that arises from parafollicular cells. Approximately 8% of thyroid cancer cases are MTC, and about 25% of these have a hereditary component. Incorporating molecular parameters into tumor classification is important. Besides, the presence of pathogenic germline variants can impact directly on cancer prevention. Thus, the aim of this study was to perform whole exome sequencing (WES) on a consecutive series of hereditary RET wild-type MTC patients to identify genetic variants that may be involved in the carcinogenesis of this tumor. WES was performed on 28 patients negative for germline RET pathogenic variants using the NovaSeq 6000 platform. Variant classification followed American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines.Our study represents a significant advancement in gene discovery for MTC genetics.

• Transcriptomic changes in amniotic fluid associated with the fetal inflammatory response

  The fetal inflammatory response (FIR) increases the risk of perinatal brain injury, particularly in extremely low gestational age newborns (ELGANs, < 28 weeks of gestation). Most FIR cases are subclinical, i.e., usually FIR does not trigger observable symptoms in the mother beyond those associated with premature birth. The study of transcriptomic changes asssociated with FIR in amniotic fluid could help finding new clinical actionable FIR biomarkers.

• SUM-seq data for Primary T-cells differentiated to helper subtypes

  Briefly, naive CD4+ T cells were isolated from PBMCs obtained from buffy coats from three healthy human donors, and differentiated into Th0, iTreg, Th2, Th1, Th17, and IFN-β-activated subsets. This allowed us to study the differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into distinct helper subsets under the influence of a specific cytokine environment. Following 5 days of differentiation, T cells were left unstimulated or re-stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and ionomycin to assess their functional responses. Thus, this SUM-seq experiment consisted of 36 multiplexed conditions (3 donors x 6 stimulations x with/without re-stimulation). Single-cell chromatin accessibility and gene expression data is provided as demultiplexed fastq files.
