    • Bevacizumab treatment induces metabolic adaptation toward anaerobic metabolism in glioblastomas 

      Fack, Fred; Espedal, Heidi; Keunen, Olivier; Golebiewska, Anna; Obad, Nina; Harter, Patrick N.; Mittelbronn, Michel; Bähr, Oliver; Weyerbrock, Astrid; Stuhr, Linda Elin Birkhaug; Miletic, Hrvoje; Sakariassen, Per Øystein; Stieber, Daniel; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Lund-Johansen, Morten; Zheng, Liang; Gottlieb, Eyal; Niclou, Simone P.; Bjerkvig, Rolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-01)
      Anti-angiogenic therapy in glioblastoma (GBM) has unfortunately not led to the anticipated improvement in patient prognosis. We here describe how human GBM adapts to bevacizumab treatment at the metabolic level. By performing ...

    • Increased microvascular permeability in mice lacking Epac1 (Rapgef3) 

      Kopperud, Reidun Kristin; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Karlsen, Tine Veronica; Krakstad, Camilla; Kleppe, Rune; Høivik, Erling Andre; Bakke, Marit; Tenstad, Olav; Selheim, Frode; Liden, Åsa; Madsen, Lise; Pavlin, Tina; Taxt, Torfinn; Kristiansen, K.; Curry, FE; Reed, Rolf K.; Doskeland, Stein Ove (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-02)
      Aim: Maintenance of the blood and extracellular volume requires tight control of endothelial macromolecule permeability, which is regulated by cAMP signalling. This study probes the role of the cAMP mediators rap guanine ...

    • Investigation of tumour characteristics and treatment strategies in animal models using multiparametric MRI and novel contrast agents 

      Rygh, Cecilie Brekke (Doctoral thesis, 2007-06-21)

    • Lack of functional normalisation of tumour vessels following anti-angiogenic therapy in glioblastoma 

      Obad, Nina; Espedal, Heidi; Jirík, Radovan; Sakariassen, Per Øystein; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Lund-Johansen, Morten; Taxt, Torfinn; Niclou, Simone Pierrette; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Keunen, Olivier (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Neo-angiogenesis represents an important factor for the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to a growing tumour, and is considered to be one of the main pathodiagnostic features of glioblastomas (GBM). Anti-angiogenic therapy ...

    • Multimodal Imaging of Orthotopic Mouse Model of Endometrial Carcinoma 

      Haldorsen, Ingfrid S.; Popa, Mihaela Lucia; Fonnes, Tina; Brekke, Njål; Kopperud, Reidun Kristin; Visser, Nicole C.; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Pavlin, Tina; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte; McCormack, Emmet; Krakstad, Camilla (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-08-07)
      Background: Orthotopic endometrial cancer models provide a unique tool for studies of tumour growth and metastatic spread. Novel preclinical imaging methods also have the potential to quantify functional tumour characteristics ...

    • Surgical debulking promotes recruitment of macrophages and triggers glioblastoma phagocytosis in combination with CD47 blocking immunotherapy 

      Zhu, Huaiyang; Leiss, Lina Wik; Yang, Ning; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Mitra, Siddharta S.; Cheshier, Samuel H.; Weissman, Irving L.; Huang, Bin; Miletic, Hrvoje; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Enger, Per Øyvind; Li, Xingang; Wang, Jian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Surgical resection is a standard component of treatment in the clinical management of patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). However, experimental therapies are rarely investigated in the context of tumor debulking ...

    • Targeting glioblastoma with NK cells and mAb against NG2/CSPG4 prolongs animal survival 

      Poli, Aurélie; Wang, Jian; Domingues, Olivia; Planagumà, Jesús; Yan, Tao; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Skaftnesmo, Kai Ove; Thorsen, Frits Alan; McCormack, Emmet; Hentges, François; Pedersen, Paal-Henning; Zimmer, Jacques; Enger, Per Øyvind; Chekenya, Martha (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-09-09)
      Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most malignant brain tumor where patients’ survival is only 14.6 months, despite multimodal therapy with debulking surgery, concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy. There is an urgent, unmet need ...

    • Targeting the NG2/CSPG4 Proteoglycan Retards Tumour Growth and Angiogenesis in Preclinical Models of GBM and Melanoma 

      Wang, Jian; Svendsen, Agnete; Kmiecik, Justyna; Immervoll, Heike; Skaftnesmo, Kai Ove; Planagumà, Jesús; Reed, Rolf K.; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Miletic, Hrvoje; Enger, Per Øyvind; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Chekenya, Martha (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-07-29)
      Aberrant expression of the progenitor marker Neuron-glia 2 (NG2/CSPG4) or melanoma proteoglycan on cancer cells and angiogenic vasculature is associated with an aggressive disease course in several malignancies including ...
