Tumor tissues were frozen in RNAlater solution (Thermo #PA5-39542) and RNA was extracted using the RNeasy plus mini kit (Qiagen #74134). cDNA libraries were built using NEB Next Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB #E7530S). Samples were multiplexed using NEB Next Multiplex Oligos for Illumina (NEB #E7710L). Samples were sequenced on an Illumina NexSeq 500 and reads were aligned to the mouse genome (GRCm38) using HiSat258 (link). Mapped reads were counted using the featureCounts function from the Subread59 (link) package. Differential expression between groups was calculated using edgeR50 (link).
