    • Anti-proliferative activity of the NPM1 interacting natural product avrainvillamide in acute myeloid leukemia 

      Andresen, Vibeke; Erikstein, Bjarte Skoe; Mukherjee, Herschel; Sulen, Andre; Popa, Mihaela Lucia; Sørnes, Steinar; Reikvam, Håkon; Chan, Kok-Ping; Hovland, Randi; McCormack, Emmet; Bruserud, Øystein; Myers, Andrew G.; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-12-01)
      Mutated nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) acts as a proto-oncogene and is present in ~30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here we examined the in vitro and in vivo anti-leukemic activity of the NPM1 and chromosome ...

    • Evaluation of immune responses in HIV infected patients with pleural tuberculosis by the QuantiFERON® TB-Gold interferon-gamma assay 

      Baba, Kamaldeen; Sørnes, Steinar; Hoosen, Anwar A.; Lekabe, Jacob M.; Mpe, Mathew J.; Langeland, Nina; Dyrhol-Riise, Anne Ma (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-03-14)
      Background: Diagnosis of tuberculous (TB) pleuritis is difficult and better diagnostic tools are needed. New blood based interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) tests are promising, but sensitivity could be low in HIV positive patients. ...

    • Giardia-specific cellular immune responses in post-giardiasis chronic fatigue syndrome 

      Hanevik, Kurt; Kristoffersen, Einar; Mørch, Kristine; Rye, Kristin Paulsen; Sørnes, Steinar; Svärd, Staffan; Bruserud, Øystein; Langeland, Nina (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-01-28)
      Background: The role of pathogen specific cellular immune responses against the eliciting pathogen in development of post-infectious chronic fatigue syndrome (PI-CFS) is not known and such studies are difficult to perform. ...

    • Immunophenotyping in post-giardiasis functional gastrointestinal disease and chronic fatigue syndrome 

      Hanevik, Kurt; Kristoffersen, Einar K.; Sørnes, Steinar; Mørch, Kristine; Næss, Halvor; Rivenes, Ann Christin; Bødtker, Jørn; Hausken, Trygve; Langeland, Nina (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-10-14)
      Background: A Giardia outbreak was associated with development of post-infectious functional gastrointestinal disorders (PI-FGID) and chronic fatigue syndrome (PI-CFS). Markers of immune dysfunction have given conflicting ...

    • Tigecycline attenuates polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) receptors but not functions 

      Næss, Are; Andreeva, Hristina D.; Sørnes, Steinar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)
      Tigecycline achieves high intracellular concentrations in polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). To evaluate the effects of tigecycline on human PMNs, PMNs were incubated with tigecycline dilutions (0.1 to 100 mg L–¹). ...
