Cancer metastasis remains one of the major causes of cancer deaths. The molecular mechanisms of pro-survival lipid signaling activation in inducing cancer cell migration and metastasis are largely unknown. Here, our RNA seq data showed that S1PR1 overexpression B16 melanoma cells injected in C57BL/6 mice via tail vein, activates endogenous complement signaling and inflammasome to induce tumor lung metastasis. Overall design: C57BL/6 mice (Wildtype) and C3 knockout mice, were injected with S1PR1 overexpression B16 melanoma cell lines, via tail vein. Empty vector was injected in wildtype mice as control. After 21-30 days, mice were euthanized and lung extracted and stored in RNA stabilizer solution (ThermoFisher Scientific, cat# AM7022), until ready to use. Total RNA from mice lungs were isolated and sent for RNA sequencing.
