    Azithromycin ameliorates sulfur dioxide-induced airway epithelial damage and inflammatory responses 
    Jóelsson, Jón Pétur; Kricker, Jennifer; Arason, Ari Jon; Sigurdsson, Snaevar; Valdimarsdóttir, Bryndís; Garðarsson, Friðrik Rúnar; Page, Clive P.; Lehmann, Fredrik; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn; Ingthorsson, Saevar (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-09-10)
    Background: The airway epithelium (AE) forms the first line of defence against harmful particles and pathogens. Barrier failure of the airway epithelium contributes to exacerbations of a range of lung diseases that are commonly treated with Azithromycin ...

    Azithromycin induces epidermal differentiation and multivesicular bodies in airway epithelia 
    Arason, Ari Jon; Jóelsson, Jón Pétur; Valdimarsdóttir, Bryndís; Sigurdsson, Snaevar; Guðjónsson, Alexander; Halldorsson, Skarphedinn; Jóhannsson, Freyr; Rolfsson, Óttar; Lehmann, Fredrik; Ingthorsson, Saevar; Cherek, Paulina; Gudmundsson, Gudmundur H; Garðarsson, Friðrik R.; Page, Clive P.; Baldursson, Ólafur; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn; Kricker, Jennifer (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-06-24)
    BACKGROUND: Azithromycin (Azm) is a macrolide recognized for its disease-modifying effects and reduction in exacerbation of chronic airway diseases. It is not clear whether the beneficial effects of Azm are due to its anti-microbial activity or other ...

    Cell Internalization in Fluidic Culture Conditions Is Improved When Microparticles Are Specifically Targeted to the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) 
    Mora-Espí, Inmaculada; Ibáñez, Elena; Soriano, Jorge; Nogués, Carme; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn; Barrios, Leonardo (MDPI AG, 2019-04-11)
    Purpose: To determine if the specific targeting of microparticles improves their internalization by cells under fluidic conditions. Methods: Two isogenic breast epithelial cell lines, one overexpressing the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 ...

    Expression of ncRNAs on the DLK1-DIO3 Locus Is Associated With Basal and Mesenchymal Phenotype in Breast Epithelial Progenitor Cells 
    Budkova, Zuzana; Sigurðardóttir, Anna Karen; Briem, Eiríkur; Bergthorsson, Jon Thor; Sigurðsson, Snævar; Magnusson, Magnus Karl; Traustadottir, Gunnhildur Asta; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn; Hilmarsdóttir, Bylgja (Frontiers Media SA, 2020-06-16)
    Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its reversed process mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) play a critical role in epithelial plasticity during development and cancer progression. Among important regulators of these cellular processes ...

    HER2 induced EMT and tumorigenicity in breast epithelial progenitor cells is inhibited by coexpression of EGFR 
    Ingthorsson, Saevar; Andersen, K; Hilmarsdóttir, Bylgja; Mælandsmo, Gunhild M; Magnusson, Magnus Karl; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn (Springer Nature, 2015-12-21)
    The members of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase family are important players in breast morphogenesis and cancer. EGFR2/HER2 and EGFR expression have a prognostic value in certain subtypes of breast cancer such as HER2-amplified, ...

    Inhibition of PTP1B disrupts cell–cell adhesion and induces anoikis in breast epithelial cells 
    Hilmarsdóttir, Bylgja; Briem, Eiríkur; Halldórsson, Skarphéðinn; Kricker, Jennifer; Ingthorsson, Saevar; Gústafsdóttir, Sigrún; Mælandsmo, Gunhild M; Magnusson, Magnus Karl; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn (Springer Nature, 2017-05-11)
    Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a well-known inhibitor of insulin signaling pathways and inhibitors against PTP1B are being developed as promising drug candidates for treatment of obesity. PTP1B has also been linked to breast cancer both as ...

    Metabolic re-wiring of isogenic breast epithelial cell lines following epithelial to mesenchymal transition 
    Halldorsson, Skarphedinn; Rohatgi, Neha; Magnúsdóttir, Manuela; Choudhary, Kumari Sonal; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn; Knutsen, Erik; Barkovskaya, Anna; Hilmarsdóttir, Bylgja; Perander, Maria; Mælandsmo, Gunhild M.; Guðmundsson, Steinn; Rolfsson, Óttar (Elsevier BV, 2017-06)
    Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) has implications in tumor progression and metastasis. Metabolic alterations have been described in cancer development but studies focused on the metabolic re-wiring that takes place during EMT are still limited. ...

    MiR-203a is differentially expressed during branching morphogenesis and EMT in breast progenitor cells and is a repressor of peroxidasin 
    Briem, Eiríkur; Budkova, Zuzana; Sigurðardóttir, Anna Karen; Hilmarsdóttir, Bylgja; Kricker, Jennifer; Timp, Winston; Magnusson, Magnus Karl; Traustadottir, Gunnhildur Asta; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn (Elsevier BV, 2019-02)
    MicroRNAs regulate developmental events such as branching morphogenesis, epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and its reverse process mesenchymal to epithelial transition (MET). In this study, we performed small RNA sequencing of a breast epithelial ...

    YKL-40/CHI3L1 facilitates migration and invasion in HER2 overexpressing breast epithelial progenitor cells and generates a niche for capillary-like network formation 
    Morera, Erika; Steinhäuser, Sarah Sophie; Budkova, Zuzana; Ingthorsson, Saevar; Kricker, Jennifer; Krueger, Aileen; Traustadottir, Gunnhildur Asta; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-09-03)
    Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental event that is hijacked in some diseases such as fibrosis and cancer. In cancer, EMT has been linked to increased invasion and metastasis and is generally associated with a poor prognosis. ...
