      Aberrant pro-survival signaling is a hallmark of cancer cells, but the response to chemotherapy is poorly understood. In this study, we investigate the initial signaling response to standard induction chemotherapy in a ...

    • ETH-Tight Algorithms for Finding Surfaces in Simplicial Complexes of Bounded Treewidth 

      Black, Mitchell; Blaser, Nello; Nayyeri, Amir; Vågset, Erlend Raa (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Given a simplicial complex with n simplices, we consider the Connected Subsurface Recognition (c-SR) problem of finding a subcomplex that is homeomorphic to a given connected surface with a fixed boundary. We also study ...

    • GUBS: Graph-Based Unsupervised Brain Segmentation in MRI Images 

      Mayala, Simeon Sahani; Herdlevær, Ida Ajvazi; Haugsøen, Jonas Bull; Anandan, Shamundeeswari; Blaser, Nello; Gavasso, Sonia; Brun, Morten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Brain segmentation in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images is the process of isolating the brain from non-brain tissues to simplify the further analysis, such as detecting pathology or calculating volumes. This paper ...

    • Integrative omics-analysis of lipid metabolism regulation by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor a and b agonists in male Atlantic cod 

      Eide, Marta; Goksøyr, Anders; Yadetie, Fekadu; Gilabert, Alejandra; Bartosova, Zdenka; Frøysa, Håvard Guldbrandsen; Fallahi, Shirin; Zhang, Xiaokang; Blaser, Nello; Jonassen, Inge; Bruheim, Per; Alendal, Guttorm; Brun, Morten; Porte, Cinta; Karlsen, Odd André (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-22)
      Lipid metabolism is essential in maintaining energy homeostasis in multicellular organisms. In vertebrates, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs, NR1C) regulate the expression of many genes involved in ...

    • Optimal sensors placement for detecting CO2 discharges from unknown locations on the seafloor
