The combination of valproic acid, all-trans retinoic acid and low-dose cytarabine as disease-stabilizing treatment in acute myeloid leukemia
Fredly, Hanne Kristin; Ersvær, Elisabeth; Kittang, Astrid Marta Olsnes; Tsykunova, Galina; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore; Bruserud, Øystein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-08-01)Background: A large proportion of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are not fit for intensive and potentially curative therapy due to advanced age or comorbidity. Previous studies have demonstrated that a subset ... -
IL-6 Responsiveness of CD4+ and CD8+ T Cells after Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Differs between Patients and Is Associated with Previous Acute Graft versus Host Disease and Pretransplant Antithymocyte Globulin Therapy
Tvedt, Tor Henrik Anderson; Rose-John, Stefan; Tsykunova, Galina; Ahmed, Aymen B; Gedde-Dahl, Tobias; Ersvær, Elisabeth; Bruserud, Øystein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), one of the most common and serious complications after allogeneic stem cell transplantation, is mediated by allocative T cells. IL-6 mediates both pro- and anti-inflammatory effects and ... -
Immunological heterogeneity of healthy peripheral blood stem cell donors - Effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor on inflammatory responses
Tvedt, Tor Henrik Anderson; Melve, Guro Kristin; Tsykunova, Galina; Ahmed, Aymen B; Brenner, Annette; Bruserud, Øystein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-09-22)Interleukin-6 (IL-6) contributes to the development of immune-mediated complications after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. However, systemic IL-6 levels also increase during granulocyte colony-stimulating factor ... -
A pilot study of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the interleukin-6 receptor and their effects on pre- and post-transplant serum mediator level and outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation
Tvedt, Tor Henrik Anderson; Hovland, Randi; Tsykunova, Galina; Ahmed, Aymen B; Gedde-Dahl, Thobias; Bruserud, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-07)Interleukin (IL)‐6 is an important regulator of immunity and inflammation in many diseases. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL‐6 gene influence outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT), but ... -
Therapeutic use of valproic acid and all-trans retinoic acid in acute myeloid leukemia—literature review and discussion of possible use in relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation
Bruserud, Øystein; Tsykunova, Galina; Hernandez-Valladares, Maria; Reikvam, Håkon; Tvedt, Tor Henrik Anderson (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Even though allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the most intensive treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chemo-resistant leukemia relapse is still one of the most common causes of death for these patients, as is ...
