      Background: About 20% of patients diagnosed with endometrial cancer (EC) are considered high-risk with unfavorable prognosis. In the framework of the European Network for Individualized Treatment in EC (ENITEC), we ...

    • MRPS23 amplification and gene expression in breast cancer; association with proliferation and the non-basal subtypes 

      Klæstad, Elise; Opdahl, Signe; Engstrøm, Monica J; Ytterhus, Borgny; Wik, Elisabeth; Bofin, Anna Mary; Valla, Marit (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-16)
      Purpose MRPS23 is recognized as a driver of proliferation in luminal breast cancer. The aims of the present study were to describe MRPS23 copy number change in breast cancer, and to assess associations between MRPS23 copy ...

    • A novel age-related gene expression signature associates with proliferation and disease progression in breast cancer 

      Ingebriktsen, Lise Martine; Finne, Kenneth; Akslen, Lars Andreas; Wik, Elisabeth (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Background and objective Breast cancer (BC) diagnosed at ages <40 years presents with more aggressive tumour phenotypes and poorer clinical outcome compared to older BC patients. Here, we explored transcriptional BC ...

    • Role of DNA methylation and epigenetic silencing of HAND2 in endometrial cancer development 

      Jones, Allison; Teschendorff, Andrew E.; Li, Quanxi; Hayward, Jane D.; Kannan, Athilakshmi; Mould, Tim; West, James; Zikan, Michal; Cibula, David; Fiegl, Heidi; Lee, Shih-Han; Wik, Elisabeth; Hadwin, Richard; Arora, Rupali; Lemech, Charlotte; Turunen, Henna; Pakarinen, Päivi; Jacobs, Ian J.; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte; Bagchi, Milan K.; Bagchi, Indrani C.; Widschwendter, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-11-12)
      Background: Endometrial cancer incidence is continuing to rise in the wake of the current ageing and obesity epidemics. Much of the risk for endometrial cancer development is influenced by the environment and lifestyle. ...

    • Stathmin expression associates with vascular and immune responses in aggressive breast cancer subgroups 

      Askeland, Cecilie; Wik, Elisabeth; Finne, Kenneth; Birkeland, Even; Arnes, Jarle; Collett, Karin; Knutsvik, Gøril; Krüger, Kristi; Davidsen, Benedicte; Aas, Turid; Eide, Geir Egil; Stefansson, Ingunn; Foulkes, William; Akslen, Lars A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Studies indicate that stathmin expression associates with PI3K activation in breast cancer, suggesting stathmin as a marker for targetable patient subgroups. Here we assessed stathmin in relation to tumour proliferation, ...

    • Stathmin Protein Level, a Potential Predictive Marker for Taxane Treatment Response in Endometrial Cancer 

      Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Trovik, Jone; Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Wik, Elisabeth; Akslen, Lars A.; Birkeland, Even; Bredholt, Therese; Tangen, Ingvild Løberg; Krakstad, Camilla; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-25)
      Stathmin is a prognostic marker in many cancers, including endometrial cancer. Preclinical studies, predominantly in breast cancer, have suggested that stathmin may additionally be a predictive marker for response to ...

    • Tumor-associated lymphocytes and macrophages are related to stromal elastosis and vascular invasion in breast cancer 

      Chen, Ying; Klingen, Tor Audun; Aas, Hans; Wik, Elisabeth; Akslen, Lars Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in breast cancer progression. Here, we investigated tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and associations with macrophage numbers, tumor stromal elastosis, vascular invasion, ...

    • Vessel size as a marker of survival in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer 

      Milosevic, Vladan; Edelmann, Reidunn Jetne; Winge, Ingeborg; Strell, Carina; Mezheyeuski, Artur; Knutsvik, Gøril; Askeland, Cecilie; Wik, Elisabeth; Akslen, Lars Andreas; Östman, Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Purpose: Angiogenesis is crucial for tumor growth and is one of the hallmarks of cancer. In this study, we analyzed microvessel density, vessel median size, and perivascular a-SMA expression as prognostic biomarkers in ...
