MiR-21 enriched in exosomes promotes macrophage M2 polarization. A RNA sequence was performed to analyze the different expression miRNAs between the exosomes secreted by H1299 cultured in normoxia (N) and hypoxia (H). B The top 10 differentially expressed miRNAs was validated by RT-qPCR in clinical tissues of lung cancer patients. The relative expressions were averaged and plotted. C The expression of miR-21 in mTHP-1 after transfected mimic or inhibitor and corresponding control was detected by RT-qPCR. D The quantity of CD163+CD206+ M2 macrophage after overexpress or knockdown miR-21 in mTHP-1 was by using flow cytometry. E RT-qPCR was for the marker genes examining in macrophages that co-cultured with the normoxia and hypoxia exosomes, including TNF, Arg1, IL-10, and TGF-β. F Clone formation assay of H1299 was assayed after co-culture with miR-21 knockdown or overexpression of mTHP-1. Data was expressed as mean ± SD. n = 3. *P < 0.05,**P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
