Cytosolic phospholipase A2 alpha regulates TLR signaling and migration in metastatic 4T1 cells
We aimed at characterizing the response to reduced cPLA2a activity in metastatic versus non-metastatic cells. We employed an isogenic murine cell line pair displaying metastatic (4T1) and non-metastatic (67NR) phenotype to investigate the role of cPLA2a on migration. Further, we elucidate the effect of reduced cPLA2a activity on global gene expression in the metastatic cell line We found that cPLA2a inhibition may inhibit metastasis through an anti-migratory effect, possibly involving Toll-like receptor signaling and type I interferons Overall design: Subconfluent cells were treated with 15 uM  cPLA2a inhibitor treated or vehicle (DMSO)  for 24 h before RNA isolation.
