Calprotectin (S100A8/A9) has the strongest association with ultrasound-detected synovitis and predicts response to biologic treatment: results from a longitudinal study of patients with established rheumatoid arthritis
Nordal, Hilde Haugedal; Brokstad, Karl Albert; Solheim, Magne; Halse, Anne-Kristine; Kvien, Tore Kristian; Hammer, Hilde Berner (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01-12)Background: Calprotectin (S100A8/A9 or MRP8/14) and S100A12 (leukocyte-derived proteins), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are markers of inflammation and angiogenesis. Ultrasound (US) is ... -
Expression of toll-like receptor -7 and -9 in B cell subsets from patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome
Karlsen, Marie; Hansen, Torbjørn; Nordal, Hilde Haugedal; Brun, Johan G; Jonsson, Roland; Appel, Silke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-03-19)Introduction: Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a rheumatic autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of exocrine glands. As autoantibodies are present in a majority of patients, B cells have been suggested to play an ... -
The neutrophil protein S100A12 is associated with a comprehensive ultrasonographic synovitis score in a longitudinal study of patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with adalimumab
Nordal, Hilde Haugedal; Brun, Johan Gorgas; Halse, Anne-Kristine; Jonsson, Roland; Fagerhol, Magne Kristoffer; Hammer, Hilde Berner (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-10-04)Background: The calcium-binding protein S100A12 correlates with measures of disease activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The protein reflects neutrophil activation and the present objective was to explore ... -
