• A computational pipeline for quantification of mouse myocardial stiffness parameters 

      Nordbø, Øyvind; Lamata, P.; Land, Sander; Niederer, Steven A.; Aronsen, Jan Magnus; Louch, William Edward; Sjaastad, Ivar; Martens, Harald; Gjuvsland, Arne Bjørke; Tøndel, Kristin; Torp, Hans; Lohezic, M; Schneider, Jürgen; Remme, Espen W.; Smith, Nicolas P; Omholt, Stig W; Vik, Jon Olav (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      The mouse is an important model for theoretical–experimental cardiac research, and biophysically based whole organ models of the mouse heart are now within reach. However, the passive material properties of mouse myocardium ...
    • Absence of NLRP3 Inflammasome in Hematopoietic Cells Reduces Adverse Remodeling After Experimental Myocardial Infarction 

      Louwe, Maria Cornelia; Olsen, Maria Belland; Kaasbøll, Ole Jørgen; Yang, Kuan; Fosshaug, Linn Elisabeth Lillerud; Alfsnes, Katrine; Øgaard, Jonas; Rashidi, Azita; Skulberg, Vidar Magne; Yang, Mingyi; Fonseca, Davi de Miranda; Sharma, Animesh; Aronsen, Jan Magnus; Schrumpf, Elisabeth; Ahmed, Muhammad Shakil; Dahl, Christen Peder; Nyman, Tuula Anneli; Ueland, Thor; Melum, Espen; Halvorsen, Bente; Bjørås, Magnar; Attramadal, Håvard; Sjaastad, Ivar; Aukrust, Pål; Yndestad, Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      An inflammatory response is required for tissue healing after a myocardial infarction (MI), but the process must be balanced to prevent maladaptive remodeling. This study shows that improved survival and cardiac function ...
    • Genome-wide profiling of DNA 5-hydroxymethylcytosine during rat Sertoli cell maturation 

      Landfors, Miriam; Johansen, Jostein; Aronsen, Jan Magnus; Vågbø, Cathrine Broberg; Doré, Louis C.; He, Chuan; Sjaastad, Ivar; Sætrom, Pål; Fedorcsák, Péter; Dahl, John Arne; Aanes, Håvard; Fusser, Markus; Klungland, Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Sertoli cells have dual roles during the cells’ lifetime. In the juvenile mammal, Sertoli cells proliferate and create the structure of the testis, and during puberty they cease to proliferate and take on the adult role ...
    • NLRP3 inflammasome promotes myocardial remodeling during diet-induced obesity 

      Sokolova, Marina; Sjaastad, Ivar; Louwe, Maria Cornelia; Alfsnes, Katrine; Aronsen, Jan Magnus; Zhang, Lili; Haugstad, Solveig Bjærum; Bendiksen, Bård Andre; Øgaard, Jonas; Bliksøen, Marte; Lien, Egil; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Aukrust, Pål; Ranheim, Trine; Yndestad, Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Background: Obesity is an increasingly prevalent metabolic disorder in the modern world and is associated with structural and functional changes in the heart. The NLRP3 inflammasome is an innate immune sensor that can be ...
