Mitochondrial DNA Instability Is Common in HIV-Exposed Uninfected Newborns
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Worldwide, one million HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) children are born yearly, and chronic health impairments have been reported in these children. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) instability and altered mtDNA content have been ... -
Mitochondrial DNA sequencing of a wet-collection syntype demonstrates the importance of type material as genetic resource for lantern shark taxonomy (Chondrichthyes: Etmopteridae)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)After initial detection of target archival DNA of a 116-year-old syntype specimen of the smooth lantern shark, Etmopterus pusillus, in a single-stranded DNA library, we shotgun-sequenced additional 9 million reads from ... -
Mitochondrial Genome Evolution in Annelida—A Systematic Study on Conservative and Variable Gene Orders and the Factors Influencing its Evolution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The mitochondrial genomes of Bilateria are relatively conserved in their protein-coding, rRNA, and tRNA gene complement, but the order of these genes can range from very conserved to very variable depending on the taxon. ... -
Mitochondrial network state scales mtDNA genetic dynamics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations cause severe congenital diseases but may also be associated with healthy aging. mtDNA is stochastically replicated and degraded, and exists within organelles which undergo dynamic fusion ... -
Mitochondrial network structure controls cell-to-cell mtDNA variability generated by cell divisions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles, containing vital populations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) distributed throughout the cell. Mitochondria form diverse physical structures in different cells, from cell-wide ... -
Mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency correlates with the severity of neuropathology in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in multiple neurodegenerative diseases but remains largely unexplored in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Here, we characterize the mitochondrial respiratory chain at the individual ... -
Mitochondrial respiratory chain dysfunction—A hallmark pathology of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most common age-dependent neurodegenerative synucleinopathy. Loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta, together with region- and cell-specific aggregations of ... -
Mitogenomic sequences and evidence from unique gene rearrangements corroborate evolutionary relationships of myctophiformes (Neoteleostei)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-06-03)Background: A skewed assemblage of two epi-, meso- and bathypelagic fish families makes up the order Myctophiformes – the blackchins Neoscopelidae and the lanternfishes Myctophidae. The six rare neoscopelids show few ... -
Mitogenomics of the suborder Cottoidei (Teleostei: Perciformes): Improved assemblies, mitogenome features, phylogeny, and ecological implications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)We determined the mitogenome of Cyclopterus lumpus using a hybrid sequencing approach, and another four closely related species in the Liparidae based on available next-generation sequence data. We found that the mitogenome ... -
Mitokondriesykdom forårsaket av m.3243A>G-mutasjonen
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Mitokondriesykdom er blant de vanligste metabolske sykdommene og er relevant for mange medisinske spesialiteter. Denne kliniske oversiktsartikkelen omtaler en av de vanligste mutasjonene bak mitokondriesykdom: m.3243A>G. ... -
Mitral annular dynamics are influenced by left ventricular load and contractility in an acute animal model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of loading conditions and left ventricular (LV) contractility on mitral annular dynamics. In 10 anesthetized pigs, eight piezoelectric transducers were implanted ... -
Mitt lille land - En retorisk analyse av TV 2s egenreklamekonsept
(Master thesis, 2011-06-01)Denne oppgaven prøver å belyse meningene og betydningene som kommer til uttrykk i TV 2s egenreklamekampanje "Mitt lille land". I sammenheng med dette retter oppgaven søkelys på den retoriske situasjon TV 2 var i den tiden ... -
Mitt liv, mitt valg: En kvalitativ studie om pasienters erfaringer med brukerstyrte sengeplasser.
(Master thesis, 2020-06-04)Brukerstyrte plasser ble etablert som et forsøk på å hindre bruk av tvang og makt, samt øke grad av effektivisering og brukermedvirkning i psykisk helsevern for voksne. Allerede før det finnes nok forskningsgrunnlag for å ... -
"Mitt valg, mitt liv, mine tanker". En kvalitativ studie om erfaringer hos unge kvinner under 25 år med påvist genfeil i BRCA: Ventetiden før oppstart i kontrollopplegg.
(Master thesis, 2019)I Norge får kvinner med påvist genfeil i BRCA tilbud om mammografi og MR-undersøkelser fra fylte 25 år. Hensikten med denne kvalitative studien har vært å få innsikt i unge kvinners erfaringer og opplevelser i ventetiden ... -
Mix Hydrate formation by CH4-CO2 exchange using Phase Field Theory with implicit Thermodynamics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)Natural gas hydrates are ice-like structures composed of water and gas (mostly methane) molecules. They are found worldwide and contain huge amounts of bound methane. Therefore, it represent potentially vast and yet untapped ... -
