The PAr index, an indicator reflecting altered vitamin B-6 homeostasis, is associated with long-term risk of stroke in the general population: the Hordaland Health Study (HUSK)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-01)Background: Vitamin B-6 homeostasis is altered during inflammation and immune activation. It is unknown whether altered vitamin B-6 homeostasis is associated with the risk of stroke. Objective: We investigated the relation ... -
A phospholipid-protein complex from krill with antioxidative and immunomodulating properties reduced plasma triacylglycerol and hepatic lipogenesis in rats
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-07-16)Dietary intake of marine omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) can change the plasma profile from atherogenic to cardioprotective. In addition, there is growing evidence that proteins of marine origin may have ... -
Polygenic overlap between C-reactive protein, plasma lipids, and Alzheimer disease
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-06)Background—Epidemiological findings suggest a relationship between Alzheimer disease (AD), inflammation, and dyslipidemia, although the nature of this relationship is not well understood. We investigated whether this ... -

The role of anti-citrullinated protein antibody reactivities in an inception cohort of patients with rheumatoid arthritis receiving treat-to-target therapy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-07-13)Background: Anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) reactivities precede clinical onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and it has been suggested that ACPA reactivities towards distinct target proteins may be associated ... -
The role of dietary fat and carbohydrates in development of adipose tissue inflammation
(Master thesis, 2009-06-02)Obesity is considered as a chronic low-grade inflammatory condition, which can be characterized by increased levels of the proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6, and macrophage infiltration in adipose tissue. ... -
Serum concentrations of kynurenines in adult patients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): a case–control study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-11-05)Background: The essential amino acid tryptophan is catabolised mainly through the kynurenine pathway. Altered circulating levels of kynurenines have been reported in chronic inflammatory conditions and in several ... -
The serum level of C-reactive protein (CRP) is associated with cognitive performance in acute phase psychosis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-03-14)Background Inflammatory processes have been implicated in the etiology of schizophrenia and related psychoses, in which cognitive deficits represent core symptoms. The aim of the present study was to investigate possible ... -
Transcapillary fluid flux and inflammatory response during neonatal therapeutic hypothermia: an open, longitudinal, observational study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-02-23)Background: Therapeutic hypothermia is neuroprotective in asphyxiated neonates by counteracting mechanisms contributing to brain injury. Although an initial increased permeability is part of an inflammatory reaction and ...
