(2021-09-17)Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is fundamental to both normal tissue development and cancer progression. We hypothesized that EMT plasticity defines a range of metabolic phenotypes and that individual breast epithelial metabolic phenotypes ... -
(MDPI AG, 2019-11-01)Mutations in BRCA1 result in predisposal to breast and ovarian cancers, but many variants exist with unknown clinical significance (VUS). One is BRCA1 c.4096+3A>G, which affects production of the full-length BRCA1 transcript, while augmenting transcripts ...
-
(2015)Myoepithelial cells (MEPs) are specialized cells derived from epithelial progenitor cells, yet they also express the contractile machinery of smooth muscle cells. MEPs are prominent in glandular tissues where their function is to help expel secretions ...
-
(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 ...
-
(2019-05-14)INTRODUCTION: Glutaminase inhibitors target cancer cells by blocking the conversion of glutamine to glutamate, thereby potentially interfering with anaplerosis and synthesis of amino acids and glutathione. The drug CB-839 has shown promising effects ...
-
(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, ...
-
(2023-08)The disruption of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis occurs in many human diseases. Atlastins (ATLs) maintain the branched network of the ER. The dysregulation of ATL2, located at ER network junctions, has been associated with cancer. ATL2 is ...
-
(2021-11-19)Breast cancer is the cancer most often diagnosed in women. MicroRNAs (MIRs) are short RNA molecules that bind mRNA resulting in their downregulation. MIR21 has been shown to be an oncomiR in most cancer types, including breast cancer. Most of the effects ...
-
(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 ...
-
(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. ...
-
(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 ...
-
(2022-01-04)Lungnakrabbamein er annað algengasta krabbameinið á Íslandi hjá konum og þriðja hjá körlum. Þótt hægt hafi á nýgengi sjúkdómsins á undanförnum árum dregur ekkert krabbamein fleiri Íslendinga til dauða. Einkenni lungnakrabbameins geta verið staðbundin ...
-
(2019-04-05)Post-translational modification of intracellular proteins with a single N-acetylglucosamine sugar (O-GlcNAcylation) regulates signaling, proliferation, metabolism and protein stability. In breast cancer, expression of the enzyme that catalyzes ...
