      Granerud, Beathe Kiland; Ueland, Thor; Lind, Andreas; Søraas, Arne Vasli; Fevang, Børre; Steffensen, Anne Katrine; Al-Baldawi, Huda; Lund-Johansen, Fridtjof; Aukrust, Pål; Halvorsen, Bente Evy; Dahl, Tuva Børresdatter; Dudman, Susanne; Müller, Fredrik; Holter, Jan Cato (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-31)
      The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 spreads more easily than earlier variants, possibly as a result of a higher viral load in the upper respiratory tract and oral cavity. Hence, we investigated whether the Omicron variant generates a higher viral load than that of the Delta variant in saliva and nasopharynx. Both specimens were collected from 52 Omicron and 17 Delta cases at two time points one week ...

    • Rifaximin alters gut microbiota profile, but does not affect systemic inflammation - a randomized controlled trial in common variable immunodeficiency 

      Jørgensen, Silje Fjellgård; Macpherson, Magnhild Eide; Bjørnetrø, Tonje; Holm, Kristian; Kummen, Martin; Rashidi, Azita; Michelsen, Annika; Lekva, Tove; Halvorsen, Bente; Trøseid, Marius; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Yndestad, Arne; Ueland, Thor; Karlsen, Tom Hemming; Aukrust, Pål; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund; Fevang, Børre (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-01-17)
      Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) patients have reduced gut microbial diversity compared to healthy controls. The reduced diversity is associated with gut leakage, increased systemic inflammation and ten “key” bacteria that capture the gut dysbiosis (dysbiosis index) in CVID. Rifaximin is a broad-spectrum non-absorbable antibiotic known to reduce gut leakage (lipopolysaccharides, LPS) in liver ...

    • Soluble markers of neutrophil, T-cell and monocyte activation are associated with disease severity and parasitemia in falciparum malaria 

      Otterdal, Kari; Berg, Åse; Michelsen, Annika; Patel, Sam; Tellevik, Marit Gjerde; Haanshuus, Christel Gill; Fevang, Børre; Aukrust, Pål; Langeland, Nina; Ueland, Thor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-18)
      <i><p>Background</i>: The immune response during P. falciparum infection is a two-edged sword, involving dysregulation of the inflammatory responses with several types of immune cells participating. Here we examined T-cell, monocyte/macrophage and neutrophil activation during P. falciparum infection by using soluble activation markers for these leukocyte subsets.</p> <i><p>Methods</i>: In a ...
