    • Cellular adhesion molecules in drug-naïve and previously medicated patients with schizophrenia-spectrum disorders 

      Gjerde, Kristian Varden; Bartz-Johannessen, Christoffer; Steen, Vidar Martin; Andreassen, Ole A.; Steen, Nils Eiel; Ueland, Thor; Lekva, Tove; Rettenbacher, Maria; Joa, Inge; Reitan, Solveig Klæbo; Johnsen, Erik; Kroken, Rune Andreas (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-04)
      Background Endothelial inflammation may be involved in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia, and cellular adhesion molecules (CAMs) on endothelial cells may facilitate leukocyte binding and transendothelial migration of cells ...

    • High dose statin treatment reduces circulating Dickkopf-1 following acute myocardial infarction 

      Ueland, Thor; Butt, Noreen; Lekva, Tove; Ørn, Stein; Manhenke, Cord Arend; Aukrust, Pål; Larsen, Alf Inge (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-07)
      Background Secreted glycoproteins of the Dickkopf (DKK) family modify Wnt signaling and may influence plaque destabilization but their modulation by statins in MI patients is not known. Methods We measured plasma DKK-1 ...
