Enhanced Levels of Soluble and Membrane-Bound CD40 Ligand in Patients With Unstable Angina Possible Reflection of T Lymphocyte and Platelet Involvement in the Pathogenesis of Acute Coronary Syndromes
Pål Aukrust,Fredrik Müller,Thor Ueland,Trude Berget,Elinor Aaser,Anne Brunsvig,Nils Olav Solum,Forfang K,Stig S. Frøland,Lars Gullestad +9 more
TL;DR: This first demonstration of enhanced levels of soluble and membrane-bound forms ofCD40L in angina patients, with particularly high levels in patients with unstable angina, suggests that CD40L-CD40 interaction may play a pathogenic role in both the long-term atherosclerotic process and in the triggering and propagation of acute coronary syndromes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokine network in congestive heart failure secondary to ischemic or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.
Pål Aukrust,Thor Ueland,Egil Lien,Klaus Bendtzen,Fredrik Müller,Arne K. Andreassen,Ingvild Nordøy,Halfdan Aass,Terje Espevik,Svein Simonsen,Stig S. Frøland,Lars Gullestad +11 more
TL;DR: Deep disturbances in the levels of both inflammatory and anti-inflammatory mediators with a marked dysbalance favoring inflammatory effects are demonstrated in congestive heart failure patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased expression of visfatin in macrophages of human unstable carotid and coronary atherosclerosis: possible role in inflammation and plaque destabilization.
Tuva B. Dahl,A. Yndestad,Mona Skjelland,Erik Øie,Arve Dahl,Annika E. Michelsen,Jan Kristian Damås,Siv H. Tunheim,Thor Ueland,Camilla Smith,Bjørn Bendz,Serena Tonstad,Lars Gullestad,Stig S. Frøland,Kirsten Krohg-Sørensen,David Russell,Pål Aukrust,Bente Halvorsen +17 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that visfatin should be regarded as an inflammatory mediator, localized to foam cell macrophages within unstable atherosclerotic lesions, that potentially plays a role in plaque destabilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbiota-dependent metabolite trimethylamine-N-oxide is associated with disease severity and survival of patients with chronic heart failure.
Marius Trøseid,Thor Ueland,Thor Ueland,Johannes R. Hov,Asbjørn Svardal,Ida Gregersen,Ida Gregersen,Christen P. Dahl,Svend Aakhus,Einar Gude,Bodil Bjørndal,Bente Halvorsen,Bente Halvorsen,Tom H. Karlsen,P. Aukrust,Lars Gullestad,Rolf K. Berge,Rolf K. Berge,Arne Yndestad +18 more
TL;DR: This finding suggests a link between the gut microbiota and atherosclerosis, and TMAO levels would provide prognostic information about adverse outcomes in chronic HF.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elevated Circulating Levels of C-C Chemokines in Patients With Congestive Heart Failure
Pål Aukrust,Thor Ueland,Fredrik Müller,Arne K. Andreassen,Ingvild Nordøy,Halfdan Aas,John Kjekshus,Svein Simonsen,Stig S. Frøland,Lars Gullestad +9 more
TL;DR: This first demonstration of increased circulating levels of C-C chemokines in CHF with particularly high levels in patients with severe disease may represent previously unrecognized pathogenic factors inCHF.
