Overview

Gene expression analysis reveals APOO enhances macrophage polarization in breast cancer, suggesting it as a biomarker and therapy target.

Key Points

  • This research aims to elucidate the role of APOO in macrophage polarization and its molecular mechanisms in breast cancer.
  • Analyzed gene expression data from single-cell RNA sequencing and TCGA-BRCA.
  • Overexpressed APOO in tumor cells and co-cultured with macrophages.
  • Assessed M2 polarization through CD206 flow cytometry and qRT-PCR.
  • Identified APOO as a key differentially expressed gene in breast cancer.
  • Higher APOO expression was correlated with increased M2-like macrophage infiltration.
  • Functional assays indicated APOO promotes M2 polarization through the ADCK2 signaling pathway.
