    • Acute effects of orexigenic antipsychotic drugs on lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in rat 

      Jassim, Goran; Skrede, Silje; Vázquez, María Jesús; Wergedahl, Hege; Vik-Mo, Audun O.; Lunder, Niclas; Diéguez, Carlos; Vidal-Puig, Antonio; Berge, Rolf Kristian; López, Miguel; Steen, Vidar Martin; Fernø, Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-07-12)
      This study aims to investigate whether orexigenic antipsychotic drugs may induce dyslipidemia and glucose disturbances in female rats through direct perturbation of metabolically active peripheral tissues, independent of ...

    • Long-term treatment with the pan-PPAR agonist tetradecylthioacetic acid or fish oil is associated with increased cardiac content of n-3 fatty acids in rat 

      Strand, Elin; Bjørndal, Bodil; Nygård, Ottar; Burri, Lena; Berge, Christ; Bohov, Pavol; Christensen, Bjørn Jostein; Berge, Kjetil; Wergedahl, Hege; Viste, Asgaut; Berge, Rolf Kristian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-06-27)
      Background: Excess peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) stimulation has been associated with detrimental health effects including impaired myocardial function. Recently, supplementation with n-3 polyunsaturated ...

    • Tetradecylthioacetic Acid Increases Hepatic Mitochondrial b-Oxidation and Alters Fatty Acid Composition in a Mouse Model of Chronic Inflammation 

      Burri, Lena; Bjørndal, Bodil; Wergedahl, Hege; Berge, Kjetil; Bohov, Pavol; Svardal, Asbjørn; Berge, Rolf Kristian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-04-09)
      The administration of tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA), a hypolipidemic and anti-inflammatory modified bioactive fatty acid, has in several experiments based on high fat diets been shown to improve lipid transport and ...

    • Upregulated PDK4 expression is a sensitive marker of increased fatty acid oxidation 

      Pettersen, Ina Katrine Nitschke; Tusubira, Deusdedit; Ashrafi, Hanan; Dyrstad, Sissel Elisabeth; Hansen, Lena; Liu, Xiao-Zheng; Hodneland, Linn I.; Løvsletten, Nils Gunnar; Berge, Kjetil; Wergedahl, Hege; Bjørndal, Bodil; Fluge, Øystein; Bruland, Ove; Rustan, Arild; Halberg, Nils; Røsland, Gro Vatne; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Tronstad, Karl Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Fatty acid oxidation is a central fueling pathway for mitochondrial ATP production. Regulation occurs through multiple nutrient- and energy-sensitive molecular mechanisms. We explored if upregulated mRNA expression of the ...
