• B-type natriuretic peptide expression and cardioprotection is regulated by Akt dependent signaling at early reperfusion 

      Breivik, Lars Ertesvåg; Jensen, Andreas; Guvåg, Steinar; Aarnes, Eva-Katrine; Aspevik, Anne; Helgeland, Erik; Hovland, Siren; Brattelid, Trond; Jonassen, Anne K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-04)
      Exogenously administered B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) has been shown to offer cardioprotection through activation of particulate guanylyl cyclase (pGC), protein kinase G (PKG) and KATP channel opening. The current study ...

      Parolini, Cinzia; Vik, Rita; Busnelli, Marco; Bjørndal, Bodil; Holm, Sverre; Brattelid, Trond; Manzini, Stefano; Ganzetti, Giulia S.; Dellera, Federica; Halvorsen, Bente; Aukrust, Pål; Sirtori, Cesare R.; Nordrehaug, Jan Erik; Skorve, Jon; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Chiesa, Giulia (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-05-19)
      Fish consumption is considered health beneficial as it decreases cardiovascular disease (CVD)-risk through effects on plasma lipids and inflammation. We investigated a salmon protein hydrolysate (SPH) that is hypothesized ...
