    • Clinically Relevant Biomarker Discovery in High-Risk Recurrent Neuroblastoma 

      Utnes, Peter; Løkke, Cecilie; Flægstad, Trond; Einvik, Christer (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-03-11)
      Neuroblastoma is a pediatric cancer of the developing sympathetic nervous system. High-risk neuroblastoma patients typically undergo an initial remission in response to treatment, followed by recurrence of aggressive tumors that have become refractory to further treatment. The need for biomarkers that can select patients not responding well to therapy in an early phase is therefore needed. In this ...

    • Exosome-like extracellular vesicles from MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cells contain oncogenic miRNAs 

      Haug, Bjørn Helge; Hald, Øyvind; Utnes, Peter; Roth, Sarah A; Løkke, Cecilie; Flægstad, Trond; Einvik, Christer (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      <p><i>Background:</i> In recent years, evidence has accumulated indicating that both normal and cancer cells communicate via the release and delivery of macromolecules packed into extracellular membrane vesicles. <p><i>Materials and Methods:</i> We isolated nano-sized extracellular vesicles from MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cell lines using ultracentrifugation and exosome precipitation (Exoquick) ...

    • Non-state actors in world politics : a case study on how transnational advocacy networks seek to influence the Arms Trade Treaty 

      Utnes, Peter (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2010-05-31)
