    • Increased Systemic and Local Interleukin 9 Levels in Patients with Carotid and Coronary Atherosclerosis 

      Gregersen, Ida; Skjelland, Mona; Holm, Sverre; Holven, Kirsten Bjørklund; Sørensen, Kirsten; Russell, David; Askevold, Erik Tandberg; Dahl, Christen Peder; Ørn, Stein; Gullestad, Lars; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Ueland, Thor; Aukrust, Pål; Halvorsen, Bente (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Objective: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder that involves a range of inflammatory mediators. Although interleukin (IL)-9 has been related to inflammation, there are at present no data on its role in atherosclerosis. Here we have examined IL-9 and IL-9 receptor (IL-9R) systemically and locally in patients with coronary and carotid atherosclerosis. Methods: Plasma IL-9 was quantified ...

    • Secreted frizzled related protein 3 in chronic heart failure: Analysis from the controlled rosuvastatin multinational trial in heart failure (CORONA) 

      Askevold, Erik Tandberg; Gullestad, Lars; Nymo, Ståle Haugset; Kjekshus, John; Yndestad, Arne; Latini, Roberto; Cleland, John G.F.; McMurray, John J.V.; Aukrust, Pål; Ueland, Thor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-08-19)
      Background We have previously demonstrated an association between increased sFRP3 expression and adverse outcome in a population of HF irrespective of cause and left ventricular ejection fraction. In this study we evaluated the prognostic value of sFRP3 in older patients with chronic systolic HF of ischemic origin. <p>Methods We evaluated sFRP3, by tertiles, as a risk factor for the primary ...

    • Wnt5a is associated with right ventricular dysfunction and adverse outcome in dilated cardiomyopathy 

      Abraityte, Aurelija; Lunde, Ida Gjervold; Askevold, Erik Tandberg; Michelsen, Annika E.; Christensen, Geir Arve; Aukrust, Pål; Yndestad, Arne; Fiane, Arnt; Andreassen, Arne; Aakhus, Svend; Dahl, Christen Peder; Gullestad, Lars; Broch, Kaspar; Ueland, Thor (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-06-14)
      The Wingless (Wnt) pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). To explore the role of Wnt modulators Wnt5a and sFRP3 in DCM patients we analyzed the expression of Wnt5a and sFRP3 in plasma and myocardium of DCM patients and evaluated their effects on NFAT luciferase activity in neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes. Elevated circulating Wnt5a (n = 102) was associated ...
