Identification of a Blood-Based Protein Biomarker Panel for Lung Cancer Detection
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer worldwide, mainly due to its advanced stage at the time of diagnosis. A non-invasive method for its early detection remains mandatory to improve patients’ survival. Plasma levels of 351 ... -
Identification of a core EMT signature that separates basal-like breast cancers into partial- and post-EMT subtypes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cellular plasticity program critical for embryonic development and tissue regeneration, and aberrant EMT is associated with disease including cancer. The high degree of plasticity ... -
Identification of a potential allosteric site of Golgi α-mannosidase II using computer-aided drug design
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-08)Golgi α-mannosidase II (GMII) is a glycoside hydrolase playing a crucial role in the N-glycosylation pathway. In various tumour cell lines, the distribution of N-linked sugars on the cell surface is modified and correlates ... -
Identification of BST2 Contributing to the Development of Glioblastoma Based on Bioinformatics Analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Rigorous molecular analysis of the immune cell environment and immune response of human tumors has led to immune checkpoint inhibitors as one of the most promising strategies for the treatment of human cancer. However, in ... -
Identification of Dynamic Changes in Proteins Associated with the Cellular Cytoskeleton after Exposure to Okadaic Acid
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Exposure of cells to the diarrhetic shellfish poison, okadaic acid, leads to a dramatic reorganization of cytoskeletal architecture and loss of cell-cell contact. When cells are exposed to high concentrations of okadaic ... -
Identification of immune-related genes contributing to the development of glioblastoma using weighted gene co-expression network analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background: The tumor microenvironment (TME) of human glioblastoma (GBM) exhibits considerable immune cell infiltration, and such cell types have been shown to be widely involved in the development of GBM. Here, weighted ... -
Identifying and characterizing novel invasion-related genes in Glioblastoma
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-03-25)Glioblastoma (GBM) represents the most devastating brain tumor in adults. Its characteristic ability to extensively invade into healthy brain structures forms a major challenge in regard to treatment as these diffusely ... -
ILC2s and Adipose Tissue Homeostasis: Progress to Date and the Road Ahead
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) were initially identified as a new type of lymphocytes that produce vigorous amounts of type 2 cytokines in adipose tissue. Subsequent studies revealed that ILC2s are present not only ... -
Image-based assessment of microvascular function and structure in collagen XV- and XVIII-deficient mice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-01)Collagen XV and XVIII are ubiquitous constituents of basement membranes. We aimed to study the physiological roles of these two components of the permeability barrier non-invasively in striated muscle in mice deficient in ... -
Immune checkpoint molecule herpes virus entry mediator is overexpressed and associated with poor prognosis in human glioblastoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Dysregulation of immune checkpoint molecules leads to immune evasion in human tumours but has become a viable target for tumour therapy. Here, we examined expression of Herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), an ... -
Immunological mechanisms of tumour progression. The rationale for natural killer cell based immunotherapy for glioblastoma
(Doctoral thesis, 2013-10-04)Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and malignant brain tumour, where the patients’ median survival after diagnosis is only 14.6 months. Therefore, concerted research is required to develop novel treatments that will ... -
The impact of different animal-derived protein sources on adiposity and glucose homeostasis during ad libitum feeding and energy restriction in already obese mice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-05-23)Low-fat diets and energy restriction are recommended to prevent obesity and to induce weight loss, but high-protein diets are popular alternatives. However, the importance of the protein source in obesity prevention and ... -
The impact of different dietary sources of marine polyunsaturated fatty acids on the fatty acid composition of rat brain, liver and red blood cells.
(Master thesis, 2005-06)There is a general consensus that the physiological activity of fish oil can be ascribable to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6n-3). However, the form in which they are introduced in ... -
Impact of Docetaxel on blood-brain barrier function and formation of breast cancer brain metastases
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-10-29)Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most frequent malignant tumor in females and the 2nd most common cause of brain metastasis (BM), that are associated with a fatal prognosis. The increasing incidence from 10% up to 40% ... -
Impact of hypoxia on the expression of cell line markers and behavior of cultured glioma cell lines
(Master thesis, 2011-06-01)Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) constitute over 50 % of primary brain tumors in adults. The tumor is heterogeneous and highly infiltrative. Its nature makes it extremely aggressive and incurable. Thus, today's treatment ... -
Impact of marine oils in inflammatory bowel disease and psoriatic arthritis. With focus on effects of seal oil and whale oil on joint pain
(Doctoral thesis, 2009-09-25)The Western diet has changed significantly over the last century, e.g. by an increased ratio of omega-6 (n-6) to n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), particularly due to an increase in the use of vegetable oils like soy ... -
Impaired vascular responses to parasympathetic nerve stimulation and muscarinic receptor activation in the submandibular gland in non-obese diabetic mice
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009-02-06)Introduction Decreased vascular responses to salivary gland stimulation are observed in Sjögren's syndrome patients. We investigate whether impaired vascular responses to parasympathetic stimulation and muscarinic receptor ... -
Implication of the APP gene in intellectual abilities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Background: Cognitive functions are highly heritable and polygenic, though the source of this genetic influence is unclear. On the neurobiological level, these functions rely on effective neuroplasticity, in which the ... -
