• Direct small RNA signatures in extracellular vesicles from breast cancer cell lines 

      Fiskaa, Tonje; Knutsen, Erik; Nikolaisen, Malene; Jørgensen, Tor Erik; Johansen, Steinar Daae; Perander, Maria; Seternes, Ole Morten (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-08-31)
      Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, and different subtypes of breast cancer show distinct cellular morphology, gene expression, metabolism, motility, proliferation, and metastatic potential. Understanding the molecular features responsible for this heterogeneity is important for correct diagnosis and better treatment strategies. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their associated molecules ...
    • Identification of a core EMT signature that separates basal-like breast cancers into partial- and post-EMT subtypes 

      Knutsen, Erik; Sajib, Saikat Das; Fiskaa, Tonje; Lorens, James Bradley; Gudjonsson, Thorarinn; Mælandsmo, Gunhild Mari; Johansen, Steinar Daae; Seternes, Ole Morten; Perander, Maria (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-12-04)
      Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular plasticity program critical for embryonic development and tissue regeneration, and aberrant EMT is associated with disease including cancer. The high degree of plasticity in the mammary epithelium is reflected in extensive heterogeneity among breast cancers. Here, we have analyzed RNA-sequencing data from three different mammary epithelial cell ...
    • Performance Comparison of Digital microRNA Profiling Technologies Applied on Human Breast Cancer Cell Lines 

      Knutsen, Erik; Fiskaa, Tonje; Ursvik, Anita; Jørgensen, Tor Erik; Perander, maria; Lund, Eiliv; Seternes, Ole Morten; Johansen, Steinar (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      MicroRNA profiling represents an important first-step in deducting individual RNA-based regulatory function in a cell, tissue, or at a specific developmental stage. Currently there are several different platforms to choose from in order to make the initial miRNA profiles. In this study we investigate recently developed digital microRNA high-throughput technologies. Four different platforms were ...
