    • Bevacizumab treatment induces metabolic adaptation toward anaerobic metabolism in glioblastomas 

      Fack, Fred; Espedal, Heidi; Keunen, Olivier; Golebiewska, Anna; Obad, Nina; Harter, Patrick N.; Mittelbronn, Michel; Bähr, Oliver; Weyerbrock, Astrid; Stuhr, Linda Elin Birkhaug; Miletic, Hrvoje; Sakariassen, Per Øystein; Stieber, Daniel; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Lund-Johansen, Morten; Zheng, Liang; Gottlieb, Eyal; Niclou, Simone P.; Bjerkvig, Rolf (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-01)
      Anti-angiogenic therapy in glioblastoma (GBM) has unfortunately not led to the anticipated improvement in patient prognosis. We here describe how human GBM adapts to bevacizumab treatment at the metabolic level. By performing ...

    • Current landscape and future perspectives in preclinical MR and PET imaging of brain metastasis 

      Aasen, Synnøve Nymark; Espedal, Heidi; Keunen, Olivier; Adamsen, Tom Christian Holm; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Thorsen, Frits (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Brain metastasis (BM) is a major cause of cancer patient morbidity. Clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) represent important resources to assess tumor progression and treatment ...

    • Lack of functional normalisation of tumour vessels following anti-angiogenic therapy in glioblastoma 

      Obad, Nina; Espedal, Heidi; Jirík, Radovan; Sakariassen, Per Øystein; Rygh, Cecilie Brekke; Lund-Johansen, Morten; Taxt, Torfinn; Niclou, Simone Pierrette; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Keunen, Olivier (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Neo-angiogenesis represents an important factor for the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to a growing tumour, and is considered to be one of the main pathodiagnostic features of glioblastomas (GBM). Anti-angiogenic therapy ...

    • Lactate dehydrogenases promote glioblastoma growth and invasion via a metabolic symbiosis 

      Guyon, Joris; Fernandez-Moncada, Ignacio; Larrieu, Claire M; Bouchez, Cyrielle L; Pagano Zottola, Antonio C; Galvis, Johanna; Chouleur, Tiffanie; Burban, Audrey; Joseph, Kevin; Ravi, Vidhya M; Espedal, Heidi; Røsland, Gro Vatne; Daher, Boutaina; Barre, Aurélien; Dartigues, Benjamin; Karkar, Slim; Rudewicz, Justine; Romero-Garmendia, Irati; Klink, Barbara; Grützmann, Konrad; Derieppe, Marie-Alix; Molinié, Thibaut; Obad, Nina; Léon, Céline; Seano, Giorgio; Miletic, Hrvoje; Heiland, Dieter Henrik; Marsicano, Giovanni; Nikolski, Macha; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Bikfalvi, Andreas; Daubon, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Lactate is a central metabolite in brain physiology but also contributes to tumor development. Glioblastoma (GB) is the most common and malignant primary brain tumor in adults, recognized by angiogenic and invasive growth, ...

    • Novel clearance of muscle proteins by muscle cells 

      Muslimovic, Aida; Friden, Vincent; Starnberg, Karin; Tenstad, Olav; Espedal, Heidi; Vukusic, Kristina; Nyström, Susanne; Wesén, Emelie; Esbjörner, Elin K; Granholm, Kristoffer; Lindahl, Bertil; Hammarsten, Ola (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Blood levels of cardiac troponins (cTn) and myoglobin are analysed when myocardial infarction (MI) is suspected. Here we describe a novel clearance mechanism for muscle proteins by muscle cells. The complete plasma clearance ...

    • Pretreatment of glioblastoma with bortezomib potentiates natural killer cell cytotoxicity through TRAIL/DR5 mediated apoptosis and prolongs animal survival 

      Gras Navarro, Andrea; Espedal, Heidi; Vareecal Joseph, Justin; Moncho, Laura Trachsel; Bahador, Marzieh; Gjertsen, Bjørn Tore; Kristoffersen, Einar Klæboe; Simonsen, Anne; Miletic, Hrvoje; Enger, Per Øyvind; Rahman, Mohummad Aminur; Enger, Martha Chekenya (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-17)
      Background: Natural killer (NK) cells are potential effectors in anti-cancer immunotherapy; however only a subset potently kills cancer cells. Here, we examined whether pretreatment of glioblastoma (GBM) with the proteasome ...

    • Trifluoperazine prolongs the survival of experimental brain metastases by STAT3-dependent lysosome membrane permeabilization 

      Zhang, Xin; Ding, Kaikai; Ji, Jianxiong; Parajuli, Himalaya; Aasen, Synnøve Nymark; Espedal, Heidi; Huang, Bin; Chen, Anjing; Wang, Jian; Li, Xingang; Thorsen, Frits (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Brain metastasis is a major cause of mortality in melanoma patients. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) prevents most anti-tumor compounds from entering the brain, which significantly limits their use in the treatment of brain ...
