Elevated levels of CXCL10 in the Periodic Fever, Aphthous stomatitis, Pharyngitis and cervical Adenitis syndrome (PFAPA) during and between febrile episodes; an indication of a persistent activation of the innate immune system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013-10-17)Background: The Periodic Fever, Aphthous stomatitis, Pharyngitis and cervical Adenitis syndrome (PFAPA) is the most common periodic fever syndrome in childhood. Clinically, PFAPA may resemble autoinflammatory diseases, but ... -
Elevated markers of gut leakage and inflammasome activation in COVID-19 patients with cardiac involvement
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Background A high proportion of COVID‐19 patients have cardiac involvement, even those without known cardiac disease. Downregulation of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a receptor for SARS‐CoV‐2 and the renin‐angiotensin ... -
Elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides (EMAST) is not attributed to MSH3 loss in stage I-III colon cancer: An automated, digitalized assessment by immunohistochemistry of whole slides and hot spots

Elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides in early-stage colorectal cancers with and without high-frequency microsatellite instability: same, same but different?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-07)Microsatellite instability (MSI) is associated with better prognosis in colorectal cancer (CRC). Elevated microsatellite alterations at selected tetranucleotides (EMAST) is a less-understood form of MSI. Here, we aim to ... -
Elevated plasma cystathionine is associated with increased risk of mortality among patients with suspected or established coronary heart disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Elevated circulating cystathionine levels are related to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, a leading cause of death globally. Objective We investigated whether plasma cystathionine was associated with ... -
Elevated plasma interleukin 6 predicts poor response in patients treated with sunitinib for metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Introduction: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common type among renal cell carcinomas, and anti-angiogenic treatment is currently first line therapy in metastatic ccRCC (mccRCC). Response rates and ... -

Elucidating tumour-associated microglia/macrophage diversity along glioblastoma progression and under ACOD1 deficiency
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In glioblastoma (GBM), tumour-associated microglia/macrophages (TAMs) represent the major cell type of the stromal compartment and contribute to tumour immune escape mechanisms. Thus, targeting TAMs is emerging as a promising ... -
Embryonic Stem Cells Can Generate Oral Epithelia under Matrix Instruction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We aimed to investigate whether molecular clues from the extracellular matrix (ECM) can induce oral epithelial differentiation of pluripotent stem cells. Mouse embryonic stem cells (ESC) of the feeder-independent cell line ... -
