Description
Exploring the novel role of RORC (RORgamma) in breast cancer, utilizing NEXTseq with genetic gain and loss of function and pharmacological treatment. Overall design: For loss of function, control-siRNA or RORC-siRNA was transfected for 48h in three cell lines (MCF-7, T-47D and MDA-MB-231). For gain of function, CMV-empty or CMV-RORC was transfected for 48h in MDA-MB-231 cells. Furthermore, the selective RORC antagonist, SR2211 was utilized. MCF-7 cells were treated either DMSO or SR2211 (5uM) for 24h. Total RNA was extracted with the RNeasy kit. NEXTseq was performed for transcriptome analysis.
