Transcriptome analysis of the microplast derived from MCF7 cells treated with macrophage conditioned medium
Purpose: Next-generation sequencing was carried out to characterize transcripts landscape of the Microplast derived from the MCF7 cells treated with macrophage conditioned medium. Methods: To stimulate microplasts formation, MCF-7 cells were cultured in 50% macrophage conditioned medium and 50% DMEM growth medium for 48 h. Cells and microplasts were harvested and resuspended in ice cold PBS. A low-speed differential centrifugation protocol was used to isolate microplasts. Total RNA was extracted from two biological replicates of microplasts enriched samples using RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). RNA concentration and integrity were determined with Nanodrop 1000 (Nanodrop, Wilmington, DE,USA) spectrophotometry. Libraries were prepared using the TruSeq RNA sample prep kit V2 as per the manufacturer's protocol (Illumina, San Diego, USA). Conclusions: This study provide the first transcriptional profile of the microplast derived from the MCF7 cells. Overall design: Transcriptome profiling of the Microplast was carried out in the duplicates.
