PD-L1 ChIP-seq in MDA-MB-231 cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Although membrane-anchored PD-L1 has been well-studied for its engagement with PD-1 on T cells to evade anti-tumor immunity, whether PD-L1 regulate oncogenic signaling pathways in tumor cells remains elusive. We found that a portion of PD-L1 could translocate to the nucleus and knockout of PD-L1 changed RNA profiles in MDA-MB-231 cells. To further explore potential role of PD-L1 in regulating gene expression in tumor cells, we performed ChIP-seq in HA tag-inserted (after the signal peptide) PD-L1 re-expressed MBA-MB-231cells (endogenous PD-L1 knockout background). Methods: HA-insert-PD-L1 was re-introduced into MDA-MB-231 PD-L1 knockout cells using lentivirus and then the infected cells were selected with puromycin to make stable subclones. ChIP experiments were performed using HA antibody (Abcam, ab9110). Conclusions: Our study indicates that nuclear PD-L1 has potential roles in regulating gene transcription. More efforts are needed to further dissect the exact working model.
