      Andresen, Vibeke; Erikstein, Bjarte Skoe; Mukherjee, Herschel; Sulen, Andre; Popa, Mihaela Lucia; Sørnes, Steinar; Reikvam, Håkon; Chan, Kok-Ping; Hovland, Randi; McCormack, Emmet; Bruserud, Øystein; Myers, Andrew G.; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12-01)
      Mutated nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) acts as a proto-oncogene and is present in ~30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here we examined the in vitro and in vivo anti-leukemic activity of the NPM1 and chromosome ...
    • Candidate markers for stratification and classification in rheumatoid arthritis 

      Bader, Lucius; Gullaksen, Stein-Erik; Blaser, Nello; Brun, Morten; Bringeland, Gerd Haga; Sulen, Andre; Gjesdal, Clara Gram; Vedeler, Christian A.; Gavasso, Sonia (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-05)
      Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune, inflammatory disease, characterized by synovitis in small- and medium-sized joints and, if not treated early and efficiently, joint damage, and destruction. RA is a ...
    • Modulation of phospho-proteins by interferon-alpha and valproic acid in acute myeloid leukemia 

      Forthun, Rakel Brendsdal; Hellesøy, Monica; Sulen, Andre; Kopperud, Reidun Kristin; Sjøholt, Gry; Bruserud, Øystein; McCormack, Emmet; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Purpose. Valproic acid (VPA) is suggested to be therapeutically beneficial in combination with interferon-alpha (IFNα) in various cancers. Therefore, we examined IFNα and VPA alone and in combinations in selected AML models, ...
    • Signaling effects of sodium hydrosulfide in healthy donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells 

      Sulen, Andre; Gullaksen, Stein-Erik; Bader, Lucius; McClymont, David; Skavland, Jørn; Gavasso, Sonia; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-11)
      Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gasotransmitter in human physiology and inflammatory disease, however, with limited knowledge of how signal transduction pathways are involved in immune cells. To examine the effects ...
    • Titrating complex mass cytometry panels 

      Gullaksen, Stein-Erik; Bader, Lucius; Hellesøy, Monica; Sulen, Andre; Fagerholt, Oda Helen Eck; Engen, Caroline Benedicte Nitter; Skavland, Jørn; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore; Gavasso, Sonia (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-13)
      We describe here a simple and efficient antibody titration approach for cell‐surface markers and intracellular cell signaling targets for mass cytometry. The iterative approach builds upon a well‐characterized backbone ...
