      Haugstøyl, Martha Eimstad; Cornillet, Martin; Strand, Kristina; Stiglund, Natalie; Sun, Dan; Lawrence-Archer, Laurence; Hjellestad, Iren Drange; Sparrelid, Ernesto; Busch, Christian; Hjelmesæth, Jøran Sture; Hertel, Jens Kristoffer; Ponzetta, Andrea; Mellgren, Gunnar; Fernø, Johan; Björkström, Niklas K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Adipose tissue inflammation is a driving factor for the development of obesity-associated metabolic disturbances, and a role of adipose tissue T cells in initiating the pro-inflammatory signaling is emerging. However, data ...
    • Subtype-specific surface proteins on adipose tissue macrophages and their association to obesity-induced insulin resistance 

      Strand, Kristina; Stiglund, Natalie; Haugstøyl, Martha Eimstad; Kamyab, Seyedeh Zahra; Langhelle, Victoria Puntervold; Dyer, Laurence; Busch, Christian; Cornillet, Martin; Hjellestad, Iren Drange; Nielsen, Hans Jørgen; Njølstad, Pål Rasmus; Mellgren, Gunnar; Björkström, Niklas K.; Fernø, Johan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      A chronic low-grade inflammation, originating in the adipose tissue, is considered a driver of obesity-associated insulin resistance. Macrophage composition in white adipose tissue is believed to contribute to the pathogenesis ...
