    • Legumain in Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Substudy of the PLATO (Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes) Trial 

      Gregersen, Ida; Michelsen, Annika; Lunde, Ngoc Nguyen; Åkerblom, Axel; Lakic, Tatevik G.; Skjelland, Mona; Skagen, Karolina Ryeng; Becker, Richard C.; Lindbäck, Johan; Himmelmann, Anders; Solberg, Rigmor; Johansen, Harald Thidemann; James, Stefan K.; Siegbahn, Agneta; Storey, Robert F.; Kontny, Frederic; Aukrust, Pål; Ueland, Thor; Wallentin, Lars; Halvorsen, Bente (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-15)
      <i>Background</i> - The cysteine protease legumain is increased in patients with atherosclerosis, but its causal role in atherogenesis and cardiovascular disease is still unclear. The aim of the study was to investigate the association of legumain with clinical outcome in a large cohort of patients with acute coronary syndrome.<p><p> <i>Methods and Results</i> - Serum levels of legumain were ...

    • Legumain is upregulated in acute cardiovascular events and associated with improved outcome – potentially related to anti-inflammatory effects on macrophages 

      Lunde, Ngoc Dieu Nguyen; Gregersen, Ida; Ueland, Thor; Shetelig, Christian; Holm, Sverre; Kong, Xiang Yi; Michelsen, Annika; Otterdal, Kari; Yndestad, Arne; Broch, Kaspar; Gullestad, Lars; Nyman, Tuula Anneli; Bendz, Bjørn; Eritsland, Jan; Hoffmann, Pavel; Skagen, Karolina Ryeng; Gonçalves, Isabel; Nilsson, Jan; Grenegård, Magnus; Poreba, Marcin; Drag, Marcin; Seljeflot, Ingebjørg; Sporsheim, Bjørnar; Espevik, Terje; Skjelland, Mona; Johansen, Harald Thidemann; Solberg, Rigmor; Aukrust, Pål; Björbacka, Harry; Andersen, Geir Øystein; Halvorsen, Bente (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-14)
      <i>Background and aims</i> - We have previously found increased levels of the cysteine protease legumain in plasma and plaques from patients with carotid atherosclerosis. This study further investigated legumain during acute cardiovascular events.<p><p> <i>Methods</i> - Circulating levels of legumain from patients and legumain released from platelets were assessed by enzyme-linked-immunosorbent ...

    • A Novel Porcine Model of Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury After Cross-Clamping the Thoracic Aorta Revealed Substantial Cardiopulmonary, Thromboinflammatory and Biochemical Changes Without Effect of C1-Inhibitor Treatment 

      Nielsen, Erik Waage; Miller, Yoav; Brekke, Ole Lars; Grond, Joost; Duong, Anh Hoang; Fure, Hilde; Ludviksen, Judith K; Pettersen, Kristin; Reubsaet, Leon; Solberg, Rigmor; Johansen, Harald Thidemann; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-01)
      Ischemic injury worsens upon return of blood and innate immunity including the complement system play a central role in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) as in thoracic aortic surgery. Complement component1 inhibitor (C1-INH) has been shown to reduce IRI and is a broad-acting plasma cascade inhibitor. We established a new porcine model of IRI by cross-clamping the thoracic aorta and evaluated the ...

    • Nuclear Legumain Activity in Colorectal Cancer 

      Haugen, Mads Haugland; Johansen, Harald Thidemann; Pettersen, Solveig; Solberg, Rigmor; Brix, Klaudia; Flatmark, Kjersti; Mælandsmo, Gunhild (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      The cysteine protease legumain is involved in several biological and pathological processes, and the protease has been found over-expressed and associated with an invasive and metastatic phenotype in a number of solid tumors. Consequently, legumain has been proposed as a prognostic marker for certain cancers, and a potential therapeutic target. Nevertheless, details on how legumain advances ...
