SiglecF hi TANs secrete TGFβ. (A) GO analysis of differentially expressed genes between RIL175 cells and those co-cultured with SiglecFhi TANs. BP, biological process. (B and C) NicheNet analysis of scRNA-seq data from NRAS/AKT HCC mice treated with αLy6G or isotype control mAbs. Prioritized ligands and their target genes driving transcriptomic changes in tumor cells after αLy6G treatment (B). Log fold-change (LFC) in senders of ligands to tumor cells after αLy6G treatment (C). (D) Relative expression of indicated genes among neutrophil subsets from NRAS/AKT HCC mice. (E) Representative FACs plots (left) and percentage of LAP (TGFβ1)+ cells among TAN subsets. (F) Spontaneous TGFβ production by SiglecF– and SiglecFhi TANs. Each symbol represents one mouse (E) or TANs isolated from two to three mice (F). Data are mean ± SEM and represent two independent experiments (E and F). *P < 0.05, ****P < 0.0001 by unpaired Student’s t test (E and F).
