Preproject; Real-time Clinical Nutrition Decision Support Systems

Current nutritional assessment, diagnosis and treatment regimes in the clinics are based on established rule-strategies developed from National nutrition procedures. However in the constantly growing patient database of the clinics there is a huge potential for the re-use of data for research and...

FOLKEHELSE-Folkehelse

The health effects of a diet rich in plant-based foods and fish. Focus on Nordic foods

The associations between dietary factors and indicators of cardiovascular disease risk will be investigated in a population-based study. The health effects of single foods as well as whole diets will be investigated in human intervention trials. This proj ect is a collaboration with National Publ...

MATPROG-Matprogrammet: Norsk mat fra sjø og land

Identification of plant foods and drinks available in the Norwegian marked that reduce oxidative stress and dampen inflammation

Oxidative stress is intimately involved in pathophysiology many chronic degenerative diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cataract as well as neurodegenerative diseases. Oxidative stress is also central to the theory of aging. We ar e therefore investigating the role of die...

MATPROG-Matprogrammet: Norsk mat fra sjø og land

Development and clinical testing of juice rich in phytochemicals and antioxidants

We will develop juice rich in natural antioxidants and phytochemicals and test bioactivity in clinical trials. Specifically, together with TINE R&D we aim at develop two juices based on grapes, pomegranates and/or blueberries. By screening potential ingre dients available on the marked we will op...

FUGE-Funksjonell genomforskn.i Norg

Funksjonelle studier av genekspresjon in vivo ved inflammatoriske sykdommer

The Blomhoff group was deeply involved in the application of the FUGE platform on transgenic mice, and the organisation of the platform. The described project builds on the expertise offered by the FUGE platform. Hallmarks of inflammation include activa tion of gene expression through the trans...

GNBIO-Grunnleggende næringsrettet bioteknologi

Development of Reporter Mice Models for Preclinical Screening of Drug

The research group of Professor Rune Blomhoff at the University of Oslo has recently established an in vivo molecular imaging model (e.g. transgenic mice carrying NF-kB, ARE, DR5 or GCS regulated luciferase reporter) aimed at identifying factors affecting relevant gene regulation in vivo in a ph...

KREFTSATS-Særutlysning kreftmidler, historikk

Retinoids, antioxidants and cancer

Retinol and its metabolites (vitamin A, retinoids) orchestrates proliferation and differentiation through its nuclear retinoic acid receptors. Antioxidants have also recently been implied in regulation of cell signalling and gene transcription. There exis t convincing evidence that diets high in ...

MATPROG-Matprogrammet: Norsk mat fra sjø og land

Antioxidant-rich berries and oxidative stress

It is well documentet that fruits and vegetables reduce risk of several diseases such as cancer, cardiovaslular disease, and cataract. In order to test the hypothesis that this benefiecial effect is due to antioxidants we have systematically assessed anti oxidants in a variety of dietary plants u...
