      Smith, Robert Løvsletten; Wollmann, Birgit Malene Tovik; Kausberg, Marianne; Mæland, Sondre; Tveito, Marit; O'Connell, Kevin Sean; Molden, Espen; Kringen, Marianne K. (Current drug metabolism;Volume 23, Issue 1, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Background: Glucuronidation is an important metabolic pathway of clozapine (CLZ), but the impact of various uridine 5'diphospho-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) polymorphisms on the exposure and metabolism of CLZ in vivo is ...
    • Evidence for solanidine as a dietary CYP2D6 biomarker: Significant correlation with risperidone metabolism 

      Wollmann, Birgit Malene Tovik; Smith, Robert Løvsletten; Kringen, Marianne K.; Ingelman-Sundberg, Magnus; Molden, Espen; Størset, Elisabet (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Aims: The extensive variability in cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolism is mainly caused by genetic polymorphisms. However, there is large, unexplained variability in CYP2D6 metabolism within CYP2D6 genotype subgroups. ...
    • Fatal liver failure after therapeutic doses of paracetamol in a patient with Duchenne muscular dystrophy and atypical pharmacogenetic profile of drug-metabolizing enzymes 

      Lao, Yvonne Elisabeth; Molden, Espen; Kringen, Marianne K.; Annexstad, Ellen Johanne; Sæverud, Håvard Andreassen; Jacobsen, Dag; Hovda, Knut Erik (Basic & Clinical Pharmacology & Toxicology;Volume 127, Issue 1, July 2020, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-24)
      Paracetamol has a good safety profile, but pharmacogenetic differences in drug-metabolizing enzymes may have an impact on its risk of hepatotoxicity. We present a case of fatal acute liver failure (ALF) after therapeutic ...
    • Identification of a novel polymorphism associated with reduced clozapine concentration in schizophrenia patients—a genome-wide association study adjusting for smoking habits 

      O`Connell, Kevin; Smith, Robert Løvsletten; Athanasiu, Lavinia; Djurovic, Srdjan; Kringen, Marianne K.; Molden, Espen; Andreassen, Ole Andreas (Translational Psychiatry; 10, Article number: 198 (2020), Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-06-19)
      Clozapine (CLZ) is the superior antipsychotic drug for treatment of schizophrenia, but exhibits an extensive interpatient pharmacokinetic variability. Here, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of CLZ serum ...
    • Mechanical-stress-related epigenetic regulation of ZIC1 transcription factor in the etiology of postmenopausal osteoporosis 

      Datta, Harish K.; Kringen, Marianne K.; Tuck, Stephen P.; Salpingidou, Georgia; Olstad, Ole K.; Gautvik, Kaare M; Cockell, Simon; Gautvik, Vigdis Teig; Prediger, Michael; Wu, Jun J.; Birch, Mark A.; Reppe, Sjur (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Mechanical loading exerts a profound influence on bone density and architecture, but the exact mechanism is unknown. Our study shows that expression of the neurological transcriptional factor zinc finger of the cerebellum ...
    • Neither Gastric Bypass Surgery Nor Diet-Induced Weight-Loss Affect OATP1B1 Activity as Measured by Rosuvastatin Oral Clearance 

      Hovd, Markus Herberg; Robertsen, Ida; Johnson, Line Kristin; Krogstad, Veronica; Wegler, Christine; Kvitne, Kine Eide; Kringen, Marianne K.; Skovlund, Eva; Karlsson, Cecilia; Andersson, Shalini; Artursson, Per; Sandbu, Rune; Hjelmesæth, Jøran Sture; Åsberg, Anders; Jansson-Löfmark, Rasmus; Christensen, Hege (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Introduction Rosuvastatin pharmacokinetics is mainly dependent on the activity of hepatic uptake transporter OATP1B1. In this study, we aimed to investigate and disentangle the effect of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and ...
    • Prediction of CYP2D6 poor metabolizers by measurements of solanidine and metabolites—a study in 839 patients with known CYP2D6 genotype 

      Wollmann, Birgit Malene Tovik; Størset, Elisabet; Kringen, Marianne K.; Molden, Espen; Smith, Robert Løvsletten (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Purpose Poor metabolizers (PMs) of the highly polymorphic enzyme CYP2D6 are usually at high risk of adverse effects during standard recommended dosing of CYP2D6-metabolized drugs. We studied if the metabolism of solanidine, ...
    • Short- and long-term effects of body weight, calorie restriction and gastric bypass on CYP1A2, CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 activity 

      Kvitne, Kine Eide; Krogstad, Veronica; Wegler, Christine; Johnson, Line Kristin; Kringen, Marianne K.; Hovd, Markus Herberg; Hertel, Jens Kristoffer; Heijer, Maria; Sandbu, Rune; Skovlund, Eva; Artursson, Per; Karlsson, Cecilia; Andersson, Shalini; Andersson, Tommy B.; Hjelmesæth, Jøran Sture; Åsberg, Anders; Jansson-Löfmark, Rasmus; Christensen, Hege; Robertsen, Ida (British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology;Volume 88, Issue 9, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-04-11)
