Characterization of glomerular extracellular matrix in IgA nephropathy by proteomic analysis of laser-captured microdissected glomeruli
Paunas, Flavia Teodora Ioana; Finne, Kenneth; Leh, Sabine Maria; Osman, Tarig Al-Hadi; Marti, Hans-Peter; Berven, Frode; Vikse, Bjørn Egil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-11-14)Background IgA nephropathy (IgAN) involves mesangial matrix expansion, but the proteomic composition of this matrix is unknown. The present study aimed to characterize changes in extracellular matrix in IgAN. Methods In ... -
Clear cell renal cell carcinoma is linked to epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and to fibrosis
Landolt, Lea Zoe; Eikrem, Øystein Solberg; Strauss, Philipp; Scherer, Andreas; Lovett, David H.; Beisland, Christian; Finne, Kenneth; Osman, Tarig Al-Hadi; Ibrahim, Mohammad Madani; Gausdal, Gro; Ahmed, Lavina; Lorens, James; Thiery, Jean Paul; Tan, Tuan Zea; Sekulic, Miroslav; Marti, Hans-Peter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) represents the most common type of kidney cancer with high mortality in its advanced stages. Our study aim was to explore the correlation between tumor epithelial-to-mesenchymal ... -
Glomerular abundance of complement proteins characterized by proteomic analysis of laser-captured microdissected glomeruli associates with progressive disease in IgA nephropathy
Paunas, Flavia Teodora Ioana; Finne, Kenneth; Leh, Sabine Maria; Marti, Hans-Peter; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Berven, Frode; Vikse, Bjørn Egil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-08-14)Background: The clinical course of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is variable and complement activation may predict prognosis. The present study investigated whether glomerular abundance of complement proteins associates with ... -
Proteomic analysis of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded glomeruli suggests depletion of glomerular filtration barrier proteins in two-kidney one-clip hypertensive rats
Finne, Kenneth; Vethe, Heidrun; Skogstrand, Trude; Leh, Sabine Maria; Dahl, Tone Dolva; Tenstad, Olav; Berven, Frode S.; Reed, Rolf K.; Vikse, Bjørn Egil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-08-16)Background It is well known that hypertension may cause glomerular damage, but the molecular mechanisms involved are still incompletely understood. Methods In the present study, we used formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded ... -
Proteomic signature of tubulointerstitial tissue predicts prognosis in IgAN
Paunas, Flavia Teodora Ioana; Finne, Kenneth; Leh, Sabine; Marti, Hans Peter; Berven, Frode Steingrimsen; Vikse, Bjørn Egil (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-24)Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is associated with a significant risk of progression to kidney failure. Tubular atrophy is an established important risk factor for progressive disease, but few studies have investigated ... -
Stathmin expression associates with vascular and immune responses in aggressive breast cancer subgroups
Askeland, Cecilie; Wik, Elisabeth; Finne, Kenneth; Birkeland, Even; Arnes, Jarle; Collett, Karin; Knutsvik, Gøril; Krüger, Kristi; Davidsen, Benedicte; Aas, Turid; Eide, Geir Egil; Stefansson, Ingunn; Foulkes, William; Akslen, Lars A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Studies indicate that stathmin expression associates with PI3K activation in breast cancer, suggesting stathmin as a marker for targetable patient subgroups. Here we assessed stathmin in relation to tumour proliferation, ...
