      Kaarbø, Mari; Yang, Mingyi; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund; Holm, Kristian; Sousa, Mirta; Macpherson, Magnhild Eide; Reims, Henrik Mikael; Kran, Anne-Marte Bakken; Halvorsen, Bente; Karlsen, Tom Hemming; Aukrust, Pål; Lundin, Knut; Fevang, Børre; Bjørås, Magnar; Jørgensen, Silje Fjellgård (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background A substantial proportion of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) patients has duodenal inflammation of largely unknown etiology. However, because of its histologic similarities with celiac disease, gluten ...
    • Gut microbiota-dependent trimethylamine N-oxide associates with inflammation in common variable immunodeficiency 

      Macpherson, Magnhild Eide; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund; Ueland, Thor; Dahl, Tuva Børresdatter; Kummen, Martin; Otterdal, Kari; Holm, Kristian; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Trøseid, Marius; Halvorsen, Bente; Aukrust, Pål; Fevang, Børre; Jørgensen, Silje Fjellgård (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      A substantial proportion of patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) have inflammatory and autoimmune complications of unknown etiology. We have previously shown that systemic inflammation in CVID correlates ...
    • NEIL3-deficiency increases gut permeability and contributes to a pro-atherogenic metabolic phenotype 

      Karlsen, Tom Rune; Kong, Xiang Yi; Holm, Sverre; Quiles-Jiménez, Ana M T; Dahl, Tuva Børresdatter; Yang, Kuan; Sagen, Ellen Lund; Skarpengland, Tonje; Øgaard, Jonas; Holm, Kristian; Vestad, Beate; Olsen, Maria Belland; Aukrust, Pål; Bjørås, Magnar; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund; Halvorsen, Bente; Gregersen, Ida (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Atherosclerosis and its consequences cause considerable morbidity and mortality world-wide. We have previously shown that expression of the DNA glycosylase NEIL3 is regulated in human atherosclerotic plaques, and that ...
    • Respiratory dysfunction three months after severe COVID-19 is associated with gut microbiota alterations

      Background - Although coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is primarily a respiratory infection, mounting evidence suggests that the gastrointestinal tract is involved in the disease, with gut barrier dysfunction and gut ...
    • Rifaximin alters gut microbiota profile, but does not affect systemic inflammation - a randomized controlled trial in common variable immunodeficiency 

      Jørgensen, Silje Fjellgård; Macpherson, Magnhild Eide; Bjørnetrø, Tonje; Holm, Kristian; Kummen, Martin; Rashidi, Azita; Michelsen, Annika; Lekva, Tove; Halvorsen, Bente; Trøseid, Marius; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Yndestad, Arne; Ueland, Thor; Karlsen, Tom Hemming; Aukrust, Pål; Hov, Johannes Espolin Roksund; Fevang, Børre (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) patients have reduced gut microbial diversity compared to healthy controls. The reduced diversity is associated with gut leakage, increased systemic inflammation and ten “key” bacteria ...
