ABSTRACT: Using a Cre-LoxP-based cell fusion assay we able to demonstrate that the fusion of human M13SV1-Cre breast epithelial cells and human MDA-MB-435-pFDR1 breast cancer cells was induced by TNF-alpha both under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. To investigate the impact of TNF-alpha on the gene expression profile of the cells M13SV1 and MDA-MB-435-pFDR1 cells were cultured for three days in the presence of 100ng/ml TNF-alpha both under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. Untreated cells served as a control. Subsequently, total RNA was extracted from the cells. Total RNA of three independent experiments that matched RIN criteria of 8 to 10 was pooled. Synthesis and Cy3 labeling of cDNA and hybridization of microarrays and microarray analysis was performed by Source Biosciences (Nottingham, UK). Microarray gene expression data were analyzed using GeneSpring GX v14.8 software (Agilent Technologies).
