A salmon peptide diet alleviates experimental colitis as compared with fish oil
Grimstad, Tore; Bjørndal, Bodil; Cacabelos, Daniel; Aasprong, Ole Gunnar; Omdal, Roald; Svardal, Asbjørn M.; Bohov, Pavol; Pamplona, Reinald; Portero-Otin, Manuel; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Hausken, Trygve (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-01-10)Fish oil (FO) has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties in animal models of inflammatory bowel disease, but how fish peptides (FP) influence intestinal inflammation has been less studied. Male Wistar rats, divided ... -
A salmon protein hydrolysate exerts lipid-independent anti-atherosclerotic activity in apoE-deficient mice
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 ... -
Serum Acylcarnitines and Risk of Cardiovascular Death and Acute Myocardial Infarction in Patients With Stable Angina Pectoris
Strand, Elin; Pedersen, Eva Ringdal; Svingen, Gard Frodahl Tveitevåg; Olsen, Thomas; Bjørndal, Bodil; Karlsson, Therese; Dierkes, Jutta; Njølstad, Pål Rasmus; Mellgren, Gunnar; Tell, Grethe S.; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Svardal, Asbjørn M.; Nygård, Ottar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02)Background: Excess levels of serum acylcarnitines, which are intermediate products in metabolism, have been observed in metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, it is not known whether acylcarnitines ... -
Short-term activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors α and γ induces tissue-specific effects on lipid metabolism and fatty acid composition in male Wistar rats
Strand, Elin; Lysne, Vegard; Grinna, Mari Lausund; Bohov, Pavol; Svardal, Asbjørn M.; Nygård, Ottar; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Bjørndal, Bodil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-12)Dietary fatty acids (FAs) affect certain metabolic routes, including pathways controlled by the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), but tissue-specific effects are not well-defined. Thus, the aim was to ... -
Short-term treatment with a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α agonist influences plasma one-carbon metabolites and B-vitamin status in rats
Lysne, Vegard; Bjørndal, Bodil; Grinna, Mari Lausund; Midttun, Øivind; Ueland, Per Magne; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Dierkes, Jutta; Nygård, Ottar; Strand, Elin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-12-05)Introduction: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) have been suggested to be involved in the regulation of one-carbon metabolism. Previously we have reported effects on plasma concentrations of metabolites ... -
