The Bacterial Preparation OK432 Induces IL-12p70 Secretion in Human Dendritic Cells in a TLR3 Dependent Manner
Hovden, Arnt-Ove; Karlsen, Marie; Jonsson, Roland; Appel, Silke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-02-21)Dendritic cells (DC) used in therapeutic cancer immunotherapy have to be able to stimulate T cells resulting in an immune response that can efficiently target the cancer cells. One of the critical hurdles has been the lack ... -
The effect of influenza virus vaccine formulation : a potential for increased vaccine efficacy
Hovden, Arnt-Ove (Doctoral thesis, 2005-12-16)Influenza remains one of the most serious viral diseases in the world, causing substantial morbidity and is responsible for at least one million deaths annually. A vast influenza virus reservoir exists in birds to which ... -
Expression of ESE-3 Isoforms in Immunogenic and Tolerogenic Human Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells
Sprater, Florian; Hovden, Arnt-Ove; Appel, Silke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-11-19)Dendritic cells (DC) are the only hematopoietic cells expressing the epithelial specific Ets transcription factor ESE-3. Here we analyzed presence and quantity of isoforms ESE-3a, ESE-3b and ESE-3j in various immunogenic ... -
ILD-specific health-related quality of life in systemic sclerosis-associated ILD compared with IPF
Durheim, Michael; Hoffmann-Vold, Anna-Maria; Eagan, Tomas Mikal; Hovden, Arnt-Ove; Samersaw-Lund, May Brit; Bjerke, Gisle; Birring, Surinder S.; Jonassen, Trygve Müller; Johansen, Odd Erik; Sjåheim, Tone Bjørg (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Abstract Introduction Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and systemic sclerosis-associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD) are fibrotic ILDs with divergent disease populations. Little is known about health-related ... -
The influence of CXCR4 on Maedi visna virus-induced syncytium formation
Hovden, Arnt-Ove (Master thesis, 2001)Maedi visna virus (MVV) is a retrovirus that is member of the Lentivirus genus. MVV infects sheep and goats and causes progressive pneumonia or paralysis, leading to death. Since the discovery of the receptor for Human ... -
Maturation of monocyte derived dendritic cells with OK432 boosts IL-12p70 secretion and conveys strong T-cell responses
Hovden, Arnt-Ove; Karlsen, Marie; Jonsson, Roland; Aarstad, Hans Jørgen; Appel, Silke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-05)Background: Design of tumour specific immunotherapies using the patients’ own dendritic cells (DC) is a fast advancing scientific field. The functional qualities of the DC generated in vitro are critical, and today’s gold ...
