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; Peer reviewed, 2014)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. ... -
Cholesterol crystals activate the lectin complement pathway via ficolin-2 and mannose-binding lectin: Implications for the progression of atherosclerosis
Pilely, Katrine; Rosbjerg, Anne; Genster, Ninette; Gál, Peter; Pál, Gábor; Halvorsen, Bente; Holm, Sverre; Aukrust, Pål; Bakke, Siril Skaret; Sporsheim, Bjørnar; Nervik, Ingunn; Niyonzima, Nathalie; Bartels, Emil D.; Stahl, Gregory L.; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Espevik, Terje; Garred, Peter (Journal article, 2016)Cholesterol crystals (CC) play an essential role in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. CC activate the classical and the alternative complement pathways, but the role of the lectin pathway is unknown. We hypothesized ... -

Complement activation by cholesterol crystals triggers a subsequent cytokine response
Niyonzima, Nathalie; Halvorsen, Bente; Sporsheim, Bjørnar; Garred, Peter; Aukrust, Pål; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Espevik, Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In the host a diverse collection of endogenous danger signals is constantly generated consisting of waste material as protein aggregates or crystalline materials that are recognized and handled by soluble pattern recognition ... -
Complement receptor CD46 co-stimulates optimal human CD8+ T cell effector function via fatty acid metabolism
Arbore, Giuseppina; West, Erin; Rahman, Jubayer; Le Friec, Gaelle; Niyonzima, Nathalie; Mehdi, Pirooznia; Ilker, Tunc; Polychronis, Pavlidis; Nicholas, Powell; Li, Yuesheng; Liu, Poching; Servais, Aude; Couzi, Lionel; Fremeaux-Bacchi, Veronique; Placais, Leo; Ferraro, Alastair; Walsh, Patrick R.; Kavanagh, David; Afzali, Behdad; Lavender, Paul; Lachmann, Helen J.; Kemper, Claudia (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The induction of human CD4+ Th1 cells requires autocrine stimulation of the complement receptor CD46 in direct crosstalk with a CD4+ T cell-intrinsic NLRP3 inflammasome. However, it is unclear whether human cytotoxic CD8+ ... -
