    • Cholesterol crystal-induced endothelial cell activation is complement-dependent and mediated by TNF 

      Nymo, Stig Haugset; Niyonzima, Nathalie; Espevik, Terje; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2014-07-05)
      Cholesterol crystals are known to be a hallmark of atherosclerosis with recent studies demonstrating deposition of these crystals in early fatty streak formation as well as penetrating the intima following plaque rupture. Inflammation has also become a central focus in atheroma development and endothelial cell activation is recognized as necessary for the recruitment of inflammatory cells to the ...

    • Combined inhibition of complement and CD14 attenuates bacteria-induced inflammation in human whole blood more efficiently than antagonizing the toll-like receptor 4-MD2 complex 

      Gustavsen, Alice; Nymo, Stig Haugset; Landsem, Anne; Christiansen, Dorte; Ryan, Liv; Husebye, Harald; Lau, Corinna; Pischke, Søren Erik; Lambris, John D.; Espevik, Terje; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-03-14)
      <i>Background</i>: Single inhibition of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)–MD2 complex failed in treatment of sepsis. CD14 is a coreceptor for several TLRs, including TLR4 and TLR2. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of single TLR4-MD2 inhibition by using eritoran, compared with the effect of CD14 inhibition alone and combined with the C3 complement inhibitor compstatin (Cp40), on the ...

    • Complement component 5 does not interfere with physiological hemostasis but is essential for Escherichia coli-induced coagulation accompanied by Toll-like receptor 4 

      Landsem, Anne; Fure, Hilde; Ludviksen, Judith K; Christiansen, Dorte; Lau, Corinna; Mathisen, Monica Dammen; Bergseth, Grete; Nymo, Stig Haugset; Lappegård, Knut Tore; Woodruff, T. M.; Espevik, Terje; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Brekke, Ole-Lars (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-12-19)
      There is a close cross‐talk between complement, Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) and coagulation. The role of the central complement component 5 (C5) in physiological and pathophysiological hemostasis has not, however, been fully elucidated. This study examined the effects of C5 in normal hemostasis and in <i>Escherichia coli</i>‐induced coagulation and tissue factor (TF) up‐regulation. Fresh whole blood ...

    • Inflammatory biomarkers are associated with aetiology and predict outcomes in community-acquired pneumonia: Results of a 5-year follow-up cohort study 

      Siljan, William Ward; Holter, Jan Cato; Michelsen, Annika; Nymo, Stig Haugset; Lauritzen, Trine; Oppen, Kjersti; Husebye, Einar; Ueland, Thor; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Aukrust, Pål; Heggelund, Lars (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      <b>Background</b><br> Biomarkers may facilitate clinical decisions in order to guide antimicrobial treatment and prediction of prognosis in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). We measured serum C-reactive protein, procalcitonin (PCT) and calprotectin levels, and plasma pentraxin 3 (PTX3) and presepsin levels, along with whole-blood white cell counts, at three time-points, and examined their association ...

    • Patient characteristics in sepsis-related deaths: prevalence of advanced frailty, comorbidity, and age in a Norwegian hospital trust 

      Torvik, Marianne Ask; Nymo, Stig Haugset; Nymo, Ståle Haugset; Bjørnsen, Lars Petter Bache-Wiig; Kvarenes, Hanne Winge; Ofstad, Eirik Hugaas (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-03-09)
      Objective - To examine the prevalence of advanced frailty, comorbidity, and age among sepsis-related deaths in an adult hospital population.<p> <p>Methods - Retrospective chart reviews of deceased adults within a Norwegian hospital trust, with a diagnosis of infection, over 2 years (2018–2019). The likelihood of sepsis-related death was evaluated by clinicians as sepsis-related, possibly ...

    • Properdin binding to complement activating surfaces depends on initial C3b deposition 

      Harboe, Morten; Johnson, Christina; Nymo, Stig Haugset; Ekholt, Karin; Schjalm, Camilla; Lindstad, Julie Katrine; Pharo, Anne Margrethe; Hellerud, Bernt C; Ekdahl, Kristina Nilsson; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Nilsson, Per (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-01-09)
      Two functions have been assigned to properdin; stabilization of the alternative convertase, C3bBb, is well accepted, whereas the role of properdin as pattern recognition molecule is controversial. The presence of nonphysiological aggregates in purified properdin preparations and experimental models that do not allow discrimination between the initial binding of properdin and binding secondary to C3b ...
