    ( A ) Heatmap summarizing transfer of <t>human</t> <t>mRNAs</t> in Co-culture compared to Mix. qRT-PCR was performed on RNA samples from MBS-MEF Single culture, Mix, and Co-culture samples from two independent biological replicates and the presence of transferred RNA was detected with human-specific oligos for ten transferred genes, as identified in . Four less transferred genes were used as negative controls. Human β-actin was used as a positive control. The color of the heatmap corresponds to the row-wise Z-scores of Ct values of the indicated genes after normalizing for an internal control (18 S rRNA). Increasing darkness corresponds to increasing gene expression. All but one gene (i.e. GNAS) showed good agreement with the RNA-seq results and have a higher fold-change as compared to the Mix sample. Each box represents an average of three independent technical replicates. ( B–C) Verification by smFISH . Three genes (KRT8, PSAP, and CCND1) that demonstrated high level of transfer by RNA-Seq were chosen to be analyzed by smFISH. Acceptor cells (MBS-MEFs) were co-cultured with MCF7 cells together on fibronectin-coated coverslips at a ratio of 1:1 for 12 hr. Following co-culture, the cells were fixed and smFISH was performed using Quasar 570-labeled oligonucleotide probes complementary to the human-specific RNA of the indicated genes and Cy5-labeled probes specific for the MBS sequence. The transfer of mRNAs was detected by wide-field microscopy and quantified using a <t>MATLAB</t> program, FISH-Quant. ( B ) smFISH images. Representative smFISH images of MBS-MEF and MCF7 single cultures, and MCF7 cells in co-culture with MBS-MEFs. Labels: gray, Q570-labeled smFISH probes; blue, DAPI staining of the nucleus. Donor and acceptor cells were distinguished by the high expression of β-actin-MBS (identified by Cy5-MBS probes) in MBS-MEF cells only (not shown). Scale bar: 10 µm.
