      Hoseth, Eva Zsuzsanna; Krull, Florian; Dieset, Ingrid; Mørch, Ragni Helene; Hope, Sigrun; Gardsjord, Erlend Strand; Steen, Nils Eiel; Melle, Ingrid; Brattbakk, Hans-Richard; Steen, Vidar Martin; Aukrust, Pål; Djurovic, Srdjan; Andreassen, Ole Andreas; Ueland, Thor (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03-28)
      The Notch signaling pathway plays a crucial role in neurodevelopment and in adult brain homeostasis. We aimed to further investigate Notch pathway activity in bipolar disorder (BD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) by conducting a ...
    • Exploring the Wnt signaling pathway in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder 

      Hoseth, Eva Zsuzsanna; Krull, Florian; Dieset, Ingrid; Mørch, Ragni Helene; Hope, Sigrun; Gardsjord, Erlend Strand; Steen, Nils Eiel; Melle, Ingrid; Brattbakk, Hans-Richard; Steen, Vidar Martin; Aukrust, Pål; Djurovic, Srdjan; Andreassen, Ole Andreas; Ueland, Thor (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)
      The Wnt signaling pathway plays a crucial role in neurodevelopment and in regulating the function and structure of the adult nervous system. Schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorder (BD) are severe mental disorders with ...
    • Increase in serum HDL level is associated with less negative symptoms after one year of antipsychotic treatment in first-episode psychosis 

      Gjerde, Priyanthi Borgen; Dieset, Ingrid; Simonsen, Carmen Elisabeth; Hoseth, Eva Zsuzsanna; Iversen, Trude Seselie Jahr; Lagerberg, Trine Vik; Lyngstad, Siv Hege; Mørch, Ragni Helene; Skrede, Silje; Andreassen, Ole Andreas; Melle, Ingrid; Steen, Vidar Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07)
      Background A potential link between increase in total cholesterol and triglycerides and clinical improvement has been observed during antipsychotic drug treatment in chronic schizophrenia patients, possibly due to drug ...
    • Shared Genetic Loci Between Schizophrenia and White Blood Cell Counts Suggest Genetically Determined Systemic Immune Abnormalities 

      Steen, Nils Eiel; Rahman, Zillur; Szabo, Attila; Hindley, Guy; Parker, Nadine; Cheng, Weiqiu; Lin, Aihua; O'Connell, Kevin S; Sheikh, Mashhood Ahmed; Shadrin, Alexey; Bahrami, Shahram; Karthikeyan, Sandeep; Hoseth, Eva Zsuzsanna; Dale, Anders M; Aukrust, Pål; Smeland, Olav Bjerkehagen; Ueland, Thor; Frei, Oleksandr; Djurovic, Srdjan; Andreassen, Ole (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background: Immune mechanisms are indicated in schizophrenia (SCZ). Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified genetic variants associated with SCZ and immune-related phenotypes. Here, we use cutting ...
    • A study of TNF pathway activation in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in plasma and brain tissue 

      Hoseth, Eva Zsuzsanna; Ueland, Thor; Dieset, Ingrid; Birnbaum, Rebecca; Shin, Joo Heon; Kleinman, Joel Edward; Hyde, Thomas Michael; Mørch, Ragni Helene; Hope, Sigrun; Lekva, Tove; Abraityte, Judita Aurelija; Michelsen, Annika; Melle, Ingrid; Westlye, Lars Tjelta; Ueland, Torill; Djurovic, Srdjan; Aukrust, Pål; Weinberger, Daniel R.; Andreassen, Ole Andreas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07)
      Objective: A proinflammatory imbalance in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) system may contribute to the pathogenesis of schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorders (BDs) and related comorbidities. We investigated the relative ...
