RNA-seq of murine macrophages (J774A.1 and Raw264.7) grown for 48 hours in conditioned media collected from primary murine Triple Negative Breast Cancer cells

The goal of the experiment was to demonstrate if the overexpression of human-Prune-1 in Triple Negative breast cancer cells induces M2-polarization of macrophages in vitro. For this purpose, murine primary cells from breast tumor developed by Genetically Engineered Mouse Models (GEMMs) of TNBC (i.e., MMTV-Wnt1) and metastatic TNBC overexpressing both human Prune-1 and Wnt1 in mammary gland (i.e., MMTV-Prune-1/Wnt1) were obtained. Conditioned media were collected from these primary cells (1x106 cells) after 24 hours. Murine macrophages (J774A.1 and Raw264.7; 1x106) were starved for six hours and then grown for 48 hours in those conditioned media collected from MMTV-Wnt1 and MMTV-Prune-1/Wnt1 cells. Untreated macrophages were used as negative control for the experiment.
