(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)The exposure to diesel exhaust emissions (DEE) contributes to negative health outcomes and premature mortality. At the same time, the health effects of the exposure to biodiesel exhaust emission are still in scientific ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Cities are among the most extreme forms of anthropogenic ecosystem modification, and urbanization processes exert profound effects on animal populations through multiple ecological pathways. Increased access to human-associated ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2020)Killer whale groups may adopt remarkably specialized diets, feeding only on a small subset of available prey. Because variations in feeding habits may have implications for the conservation of this species, it is important ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)A new dataset on the diet of Atlantic cod in the Barents Sea from the 1930s to the present day has been compiled to produce one of the largest fish diet datasets available globally. Atlantic cod is one of the most ecologically ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Herring gulls (Larus argentatus) are opportunistic feeders, resulting in contaminant exposure depending on area and habitat. We compared contaminant concentrations and dietary markers between two herring gull breeding ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2022)Differences in variation of phenotypic trait expression between males and females have been observed in multiple studies that are limited to one species, but meta-analytic evidence has failed to show consistent differences ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)Several eukaryotic symbioses have shown to host a rich diversity of prokaryotes that interact with their hosts. Here, we study bacterial communities associated with ectomycorrhizal root systems of Bistorta vivipara compared ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)The composition of intestinal microbiota commonly varies among animal hosts and may affect host health. However, we have limited knowledge about the different relative roles of assembly processes, such as drift, dispersal ...

Differential effects of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) in human memory B cellsRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2013)
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are specialized extracellular matrix (ECM) structures that condense around the soma and proximal dendrites of subpopulations of neurons. Emerging evidence suggests that they are involved in regulating ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)Six transmembrane protein of prostate (Stamp) proteins play an important role in prostate cancer cell growth. Recently, we found that Stamp2 has a critical role in the integration of inflammatory and metabolic signals in ...
-
Differential gene expression in Passer sparrows and the effect of hybridization and adaptationRestricted Access (Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2020)RNA-sequencing is a tool which provides an opportunity to study the differential gene expression of organisms both with and without prior knowledge of their genomic sequence, expanding genomic studies also to non-model ...
-
(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2020)Paracetamol is the most used painkiller in pregnancy and is generally considered safe. However, in the last decade, several large studies demonstrated a connection between long-term use of paracetamol during pregnancy with ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are the mainstay treatment of BCR-ABL1-positive leukemia and virtually all patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CP CML) respond to TKI therapy. However, there is limited ...
-
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2014)The Dinoflagellates are an intriguing and diverse protist group in terms of morphology, ecology and geographical distribution amongst others. The proportion of heterotrophic and photosynthetic taxa are rougly even. However, ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Reductions in Arctic sea ice affect marine food webs through a multitude of direct and indirect effects. We here analysed direct, indirect, and delayed associations between winter sea ice cover and year-to-year changes in ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Mitophagy is the selective degradation of mitochondria by autophagy. It promotes the turnover of mitochondria and prevents the accumulation of dysfunctional mitochondria, which can lead to cellular degeneration. Mitophagy ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal orphan cancers and new treatment alternatives beyond traditional chemotherapeutic regimes are much needed. So far, tumor mutation analysis has not led to significant treatment ...
