Refined phenotyping identifies links between preeclampsia and related diseases in a Norwegian preeclampsia family cohort
Thomsen, Liv Cecilie Vestrheim; Melton, Philip E.; Tollaksen, Kjersti; Lyslo, Ingvill; Roten, Linda Tømmerdal; Odland, Maria Lisa; Strand, Kristin Melheim; Nygård, Ottar; Sun, Chen; Iversen, Ann-Charlotte; Austgulen, Rigmor; Moses, Eric; Bjørge, Line (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-11)Objective: Preeclampsia is a complex genetic disease of pregnancy with a heterogenous presentation, unknown cause and potential severe outcomes for both mother and child. Preeclamptic women have increased risk for ... -
A Simple Cervicovaginal Epigenetic Test for Screening and Rapid Triage of Women With Suspected Endometrial Cancer: Validation in Several Cohort and Case/Control Sets
Herzog, Chiara; Marín, Fátima; Jones, Allison; Evans, Iona; Reisel, Daniel; Redl, Elisa; Schreiberhuber, Lena; Paytubi, Sonia; Pelegrina, Beatriz; Carmona, Álvaro; Peremiquel-Trillas, Paula; Frias-Gomez, Jon; Pineda, Marta; Brunet, Joan; Ponce, Jordi; Matias-Guiu, Xavier; de Sanjosé, Silvia; Alemany, Laia; Olaitan, Adeola; Wong, Michael; Jurkovic, Davor; Crosbie, Emma J.; Rosenthal, Adam N.; Bjørge, Line; Zikan, Michal; Dostalek, Lukas; Cibula, David; Sundström, Karin; Dillner, Joakim; Costas, Laura; Widschwendter, Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)PURPOSE Endometrial cancer (EC) incidence has been rising over the past 10 years. Delays in diagnosis reduce survival and necessitate more aggressive treatment. We aimed to develop and validate a simple, noninvasive, and ... -
Susceptibility to hormone-mediated cancer is reflected by different tick rates of the epithelial and general epigenetic clock
Barrett, James E.; Herzog, Chiara; Kim, Yoo-Na; Bartlett, Thomas E.; Jones, Allison; Evans, Iona; Cibula, David; Zikan, Michal; Bjørge, Line; Harbeck, Nadia; Colombo, Nicoletta; Howell, Sacha J.; Rådestad, Angelique Flöter; Gemzell-Danielsson, Kristina; Widschwendter, Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background A variety of epigenetic clocks utilizing DNA methylation changes have been developed; these clocks are either tissue-independent or designed to predict chronological age based on blood or saliva samples. Whether ... -
Tissue and imaging biomarkers for hypoxia predict poor outcome in endometrial cancer
Berg, Anna; Fasmer, Kristine Eldevik; Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Ytre-Hauge, Sigmund; Høivik, Erling Andre; Husby, Jenny Hild Aase; Tangen, Ingvild Løberg; Trovik, Jone; Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Woie, Kathrine; Bjørge, Line; Bjørnerud, Atle; Salvesen, Helga; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Krakstad, Camilla; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-09-13)Hypoxia is frequent in solid tumors and linked to aggressive phenotypes and therapy resistance. We explored expression patterns of the proposed hypoxia marker HIF-1α in endometrial cancer (EC) and investigate whether ... -
TLR3 expression by maternal and fetal cells at the maternal-fetal interface in normal and preeclamptic pregnancies
Gierman, Lobke; Silva, Gabriela; Pervaiz, Zahra; Rakner, Johanne Johnsen; Mundal, Siv Boon; Thaning, Astrid J.; Nervik, Ingunn; Elschot, Mattijs; Mathew, Seema; Thomsen, Liv Cecilie Vestrheim; Bjørge, Line; Iversen, Ann-Charlotte (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Inflammation and oxidative stress at the maternal‐fetal interface characterize the placental dysfunction that underlies the pregnancy disorder preeclampsia. Specialized fetal trophoblasts directly interact with leukocytes ... -
TP53 mutation and human papilloma virus status as independent prognostic factors in a Norwegian cohort of vulva squamous cell carcinoma

The WID-BC-index identifies women with primary poor prognostic breast cancer based on DNA methylation in cervical samples
Barrett, James E.; Herzog, Chiara; Jones, Allison; Leavy, Olivia C.; Evans, Iona; Knapp, Susanne; Reisel, Daniel; Nazarenko, Tatiana; Kim, Yoo-Na; Franchi, Dorella; Ryan, Andy; Franks, Joanna; Bjørge, Line; Zikan, Michal; Cibula, David; Harbeck, Nadia; Colombo, Nicoletta; Dudbridge, Frank; Jones, Louise; Sundström, Karin; Dillner, Joakim; Rådestad, Angelique Flöter; Gemzell-Danielsson, Kristina; Pashayan, Nora; Widschwendter, Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Genetic and non-genetic factors contribute to breast cancer development. An epigenome-based signature capturing these components in easily accessible samples could identify women at risk. Here, we analyse the DNA methylome ...
