      Altered hepatic mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation and associated tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle activity contributes to lifestyle-related diseases, and circulating biomarkers reflecting these changes could have disease ...
    • Plasma 3-hydroxyisobutyrate (3-HIB) and methylmalonic acid (MMA) are markers of hepatic mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation in male Wistar rats 

      Nilsen, Mona Synnøve; Lindquist, Carine; Stafsnes, Marit Hallvardsdotter; Bjørndal, Bodil; Bruheim, Per; Aloysius, Thomas Aquinas; Nygård, Ottar; Skorve, Jon; Madsen, Lise; Dankel, Simon E Nitter; Berge, Rolf Kristian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Objective Discovery of specific markers that reflect altered hepatic fatty acid oxidation could help to detect an individual's risk of fatty liver, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease at an early stage. Lipid and ...
    • Plasma Cholesterol- and Body Fat-Lowering Effects of Chicken Protein Hydrolysate and Oil in High-Fat Fed Male Wistar Rats 

      Aloysius, Thomas Aquinas; Tillander, Veronika; Pedrelli, Matteo; Dankel, Simon Erling Nitter; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Bjørndal, Bodil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Rest raw materials provide a new source of bioactive dietary ingredients, and this study aimed to determine the health effects of diets with chicken protein hydrolysate (CPH) and chicken oil (CO) generated from deboned ...
    • The PPAR pan-agonist tetradecylthioacetic acid promotes redistribution of plasma cholesterol towards large HDL 

      Lundåsen, Thomas; Pedrelli, Matteo; Bjørndal, Bodil; Rozell, Björn; Kuiper, Raoul; Burri, Lena; Pavanello, Chiara; Turri, Marta; Skorve, Jon; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Alexson, Stefan E.H.; Tillander, Veronika (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Tetradecylthioacetic acid (TTA) is a synthetic fatty acid with a sulfur substitution in the β-position. This modification renders TTA unable to undergo complete β-oxidation and increases its biological activity, including ...
    • A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study to investigate the efficacy of herring roe oil for treatment of psoriasis 

      Tveit, Kåre Steinar; Brokstad, Karl Albert; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Sæbø, Per Christian; Hallaråker, Hogne; Brekke, Stian; Meland, Nils; Bjørndal, Bodil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid supplements in patients with psoriasis vulgaris has previously been investigated, but interventions varied in source, composition, dose, administration route and duration ...
    • Upregulated PDK4 expression is a sensitive marker of increased fatty acid oxidation 

      Pettersen, Ina Katrine Nitschke; Tusubira, Deusdedit; Ashrafi, Hanan; Dyrstad, Sissel Elisabeth; Hansen, Lena; Liu, Xiao-Zheng; Hodneland, Linn I.; Løvsletten, Nils Gunnar; Berge, Kjetil; Wergedahl, Hege; Bjørndal, Bodil; Fluge, Øystein; Bruland, Ove; Rustan, Arild; Halberg, Nils; Røsland, Gro Vatne; Berge, Rolf Kristian; Tronstad, Karl Johan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Fatty acid oxidation is a central fueling pathway for mitochondrial ATP production. Regulation occurs through multiple nutrient- and energy-sensitive molecular mechanisms. We explored if upregulated mRNA expression of the ...
