AXL targeting reduces fibrosis development in experimental unilateral ureteral obstruction
Landolt, Lea Zoe; Furriol, Jessica; Babickova, Janka; Ahmed, Lavina; Eikrem, Øystein Solberg; Skogstrand, Trude; Scherer, Andreas; Suliman, Salwa; Leh, Sabine Maria; Lorens, James; Gausdal, Gro; Marti, Hans-Peter; Osman, Tarig Al-Hadi (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The AXL receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) is involved in partial epithelial-tomesenchymal transition (EMT) and inflammation – both main promoters of renal fibrosis development. The study aim was to investigate the role of AXL ... -
Characterization of glomerular extracellular matrix in IgA nephropathy by proteomic analysis of laser-captured microdissected glomeruli
Teodora, Paunas Flavia; 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 ... -
Expanding the utilization of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded archives: Feasibility of miR-Seq for disease exploration and biomarker development from biopsies with clear cell renal cell Carcinoma
Strauss, Philipp; Marti, Hans-Peter; Beisland, Christian; Scherer, Andreas; Lysne, Vegard; Leh, Sabine Maria; Flatberg, Arnar; Koch, Even Evjen; Beisvag, Vidar; Landolt, Lea Zoe; Skogstrand, Trude; Eikrem, Øystein Solberg (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-03-10)Novel predictive tools for clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) are urgently needed. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been increasingly investigated for their predictive value, and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded biopsy archives ... -
Fine needle aspirates of kidneys: A promising tool for RNA sequencing in native and transplanted kidneys
Eikrem, Øystein Solberg; Walther, Tedd Christian; Flatberg, Arnar; Beisvag, Vidar; Strauss, Philipp; Farstad, Magnus; Beisland, Christian; Koch, Even; Mueller, Thomas F.; Marti, Hans-Peter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-09-18)Background: Transcriptome analysis is emerging as emerging as a promising tool to enhance precision of diagnosis and monitoring in solid organ transplantation. Clinical progress has however been hampered by the current ... -
Glomerular abundance of complement proteins characterized by proteomic analysis of laser-captured microdissected glomeruli associates with progressive disease in IgA nephropathy
Paunas, Theodora 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 ... -
Intrauterine growth restriction, preterm birth and risk of end-stage renal disease during the first 50 years of life
Gjerde, Anna; Lillås, Bjørn Steinar; Marti, Hans-Peter; Reisæter, Anna Varberg; Vikse, Bjørn Egil (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: Low birth weight (LBW) is associated with a higher risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The relative impacts of absolute birth weight, birth weight in relation to gestational age and preterm birth are, ... -
Low birth weight and risk of progression to end stage renal disease in IgA nephropathy - A retrospective registry-based cohort study
Ruggajo, Paschal Joseph; Svarstad, Einar; Leh, Sabine Maria; Marti, Hans-Peter; Reisæter, Anna Varberg; Vikse, Bjørn Egil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-04-19)Background: Low Birth Weight (LBW) is a surrogate for fetal undernutrition and is associated with impaired nephron development in utero. In this study, we investigate whether having been born LBW and/or small for gestational ... -
Transcriptome sequencing (RNAseq) enables utilization of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded biopsies with clear cell renal cell carcinoma for exploration of disease biology and biomarker development
Eikrem, Øystein Solberg; Beisland, Christian; Hjelle, Karin Margrethe; Flatberg, Arnar; Scherer, Andreas; Landolt, Lea Zoe; Skogstrand, Trude; Leh, Sabine Maria; Beisvag, Vidar; Marti, Hans-Peter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-02-22)Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are an underused resource for molecular analyses. This proof of concept study aimed to compare RNAseq results from FFPE biopsies with the corresponding RNAlater® (Qiagen, ...
