    • CD14 and complement crosstalk and largely mediate the transcriptional response to Escherichia coli in human whole blood as revealed by DNA microarray 

      Lau, Corinna; Nygård, Ståle; Fure, Hilde; Olstad, Ole Kristoffer; Holden, Marit; Lappegård, Knut Tore; Brekke, Ole Lars; Espevik, Terje; Hovig, Johannes Eivind; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-23)
      Systemic inflammation like in sepsis is still lacking specific diagnostic markers and effective therapeutics. The first line of defense against intruding pathogens and endogenous damage signals is pattern recognition by e.g., complement and Toll-like receptors (TLR). Combined inhibition of a key complement component (C3 and C5) and TLR-co-receptor CD14 has been shown to attenuate certain systemic ...

    • Effect of antiangiogenic therapy on tumor growth, vasculature and kinase activity in basal- and luminal-like breast cancer xenografts 

      Lindholm, Evita Maria; Kristian, Alexandr; Nalwoga, Hawa; Kruger, Kristi; Nygård, Ståle; Akslen, Lars A.; Mælandsmo, Gunhild (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2012-03-31)
      Several clinical trials have investigated the efficacy of bevacizumab in breast cancer, and even if growth inhibiting effects have been registered when antiangiogenic treatment is given in combination with chemotherapy no gain in overall survival has been observed. One reason for the lack of overall survival benefit might be that appropriate criteria for selection of patients likely to respond ...

    • Gene expression profiling of Gram-negative bacteria-induced inflammation in human whole blood: The role of complement and CD14-mediated innate immune response 

      Lau, Corinna; Olstad, Ole Kristoffer; Holden, Marit; Nygård, Ståle; Fure, Hilde; Lappegård, Knut Tore; Brekke, Ole Lars; Espevik, Terje; Hovig, Johannes Eivind; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-05-30)
      Non-sterile pathogen-induced sepsis and sterile inflammation like in trauma or ischemia–reperfusion injury may both coincide with the life threatening systemic inflammatory response syndrome and multi-organ failure. Consequently, there is an urgent need for specific biomarkers in order to distinguish sepsis from sterile conditions. The overall aim of this study was to uncover putative sepsis ...

    • The Genomic HyperBrowser: an analysis web server for genome-scale data 

      Sandve, Geir Kjetil; Gundersen, Sveinung; Johansen, Morten; Glad, Ingrid Kristine; Gunathasan, Krishanthi; Holden, Lars; Holden, Marit; Liestøl, Knut; Nygård, Ståle; Nygaard, Vegard; Paulsen, Jonas; Rydbeck, Halfdan; Trengereid, Kai; Clancy, Trevor; Drabløs, Finn; Ferkingstad, Egil; Kalaš, Matúš; Lien, Tonje Gulbrandsen; Rye, Morten Beck; Frigessi, Arnoldo; Hovig, Johannes Eivind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The immense increase in availability of genomic scale datasets, such as those provided by the ENCODE and Roadmap Epigenomics projects, presents unprecedented opportunities for individual researchers to pose novel falsifiable biological questions. With this opportunity, however, researchers are faced with the challenge of how to best analyze and interpret their genome-scale datasets. A powerful way ...

    • Proteomic analyses identify major vault protein as a prognostic biomarker for fatal prostate cancer 

      Ramberg, Håkon Andre; Richardsen, Elin; De Souza, Gustavo Antonio; Rakaee, Mehrdad; Stensland, Maria; Braadland, Peder Rustøen; Nygård, Ståle; Ögren, Olov; Guldvik, Ingrid; Berge, Viktor; Svindland, Aud; Tasken, Kristin Austlid; Andersen, Sigve (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-20)
      The demographic shift toward an older population will increase the number of prostate cancer cases. A challenge in the treatment of prostate cancer is to avoid undertreatment of patients at high risk of progression following curative treatment. These men can benefit from early salvage treatment. An explorative cohort consisting of tissue from 16 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy, and were ...
