Differential expression levels of mRNAs in control 4T1 versus M2 macrophages co-cultured 4T1 murine breast cancer cells
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are closely related to poor prognosis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Thus, gaining insight into how TAMs support cancer progression could contribute to effective therapies. We utilized the 4T1 murine TNBC cell line and murine bone marrow-derived macrophages to assess TAMs mediated pro-proliferative effects in vivo and in vitro. Further, Transcriptional analysis was performed to identify pathways activated in TAMs stimulated 4T1 cells.  To simulate tumor microenvironment, M2 macrophages and 4T1 cells were plated into upper and lower chambers of Transwell co-culture systems respectively. we performed RNA-sequencing analysis of 4T1 cells incubated with vehicle control or M2 macrophages. Overall design: A high throughput sequencing about mRNAs was perfomed  in control 4T1 versus M2 macrophages co-cultured 4T1 cells, without replicate.
