      Fack, Fred; Tardito, Saverio; Hochart, Guillaume; Oudin, Anaïs; Zheng, Liang; Fritah, Sabrina; Golebiewska, Anna; Nazarov, Petr; Bernard, Amandine; Hau, Ann-Christin; Keunen, Olivier; Leenders, William P.J.; Lund-Johansen, Morten; Stauber, Jonathan; Gottlieb, Eyal; Bjerkvig, Rolf; Niclou, Simone Pierrette (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Heterozygous mutations in NADP‐dependent isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDH) define the large majority of diffuse gliomas and are associated with hypermethylation of DNA and chromatin. The metabolic dysregulations imposed by ...
    • 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 ...
    • Colorectal cancer derived organotypic spheroids maintain essential tissue characteristics but adapt their metabolism in culture 

      Rajcevic, Uros; Knol, Jaco C; Piersma, Sander; Bougnaud, Sébastien; Fack, Fred; Sundlisæter, Eirik; Søndenaa, Karl; Myklebust, Reidar; Pham, Thang V.; Niclou, Simone P.; Jiménez, Connie R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-07-11)
      Background: Organotypic tumor spheroids, a 3D in vitro model derived from patient tumor material, preserve tissue heterogeneity and retain structural tissue elements, thus replicating the in vivo tumor more closely than ...
