• Induction of mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration is associated with mTOR regulation in hepatocytes of rats treated with the pan-PPAR activator tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA) 

      Hagland, Hanne; Hodneland, Linn I.; Burri, Lena; Nikolaisen, Julie; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Tronstad, Karl Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-01)
      The hypolipidemic effect of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) activators has been explained by increasing mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation, as observed in livers of rats treated with the pan-PPAR activator ...
    • A new live-cell reporter strategy to simultaneously monitor mitochondrial biogenesis and morphology 

      Hodneland, Linn I.; Pettersen, Ina Katrine Nitschke; Nikolaisen, Julie; Micklem, David Robert; Dale, Hege Avsnes; Røsland, Gro Vatne; Lorens, James; Tronstad, Karl Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-11-24)
      Changes in mitochondrial amount and shape are intimately linked to maintenance of cell homeostasis via adaptation of vital functions. Here, we developed a new live-cell reporter strategy to simultaneously monitor mitochondrial ...
    • Regulation and quantification of cellular mitochondrial morphology and content 

      Tronstad, Karl Johan; Nooteboom, Marco; Hodneland, Linn I.; Nikolaisen, Julie; Sokolewicz, Maciek; Grefte, Sander; Pettersen, Ina Katrine Nitschke; Dyrstad, Sissel Elisabeth; Hoel, Fredrik; Willems, Peter H.G.M.; Koopman, Werner J.H. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)
      Mitochondria play a key role in signal transduction, redox homeostasis and cell survival, which extends far beyond their classical functioning in ATP production and energy metabolism. In living cells, mitochondrial content ...
    • Upregulated PDK4 expression is a sensitive marker of increased fatty acid oxidation 

      Pettersen, Ina Katrine Nitschke; Tusubira, Deusdedit; Ashrafi, Hanan; Dyrstad, Sissel Elisabeth; Hansen, Lena; Liu, Xiao-Zheng; Hodneland, Linn I.; Løvsletten, Nils Gunnar; Berge, Kjetil; Wergedahl, Hege; Bjørndal, Bodil; Fluge, Øystein; Bruland, Ove; Rustan, Arild; Halberg, Nils; Røsland, Gro Vatne; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Tronstad, Karl Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Fatty acid oxidation is a central fueling pathway for mitochondrial ATP production. Regulation occurs through multiple nutrient- and energy-sensitive molecular mechanisms. We explored if upregulated mRNA expression of the ...
