Forskning

Pågående forskning

Min pågående forskning betnyttes en kombinasjon av epidemologisk, klinisk og translasjonsforskning til å undersøke forebyggende tiltak mot allergi-relaterte sykdommer. Jeg hovedsakelig jobber med data fra Barneallergi studien i Trondheim (Prevention of Allergy among Children in Trondheim - PACT - study) og de assosierte substudiene. Jeg er også involvert i forskning på immunologiske komponenter av brystmelk og hvordan disse bidrar til utviklingen av mikrobiota, tarmsystemet og immunsystemet til spedbarn.

Probtiotics in the Prevention of Allergy among Children in Trondheim (ProPACT) Study

ProPACT studien er en randomisert, placebo kontrollert, forsøk av et probiotika tilskudd gitt til kvinner fra svangerskaps uke 36 til 3 måneder etter fødsel. Ved 2 år, barna av mødrene i probiotika gruppen hadde en 40% redusert forekomst av eksem. Hvordan denne effekten er overført fra mor til barn er ukjent og vår forskningsgruppe undersøke dette fra ulike vinkler gjennom biologiske prøver innsamlet under ProPACT studien.

I min doktorgradsprosjektet så jeg på morsmelksprøvene for å finne ut om de var invovlert i den forebyggende effekten. Vi så at den bakterielle mikrobiotaen i morsmelk, utvalgte cytokiner (TGF-ßs and TSLP) og miRNA var ikke betydelig påvirket av probiotiske tilskuddet gitt til mødrene og kunne heller ikke forklare den forebyggende effekten. Dette arbeidet var gjennomført i samarbeid med forskere fra Institutt for Klinisk og Molekylar medisin (IKOM, NTNU) og Norges miljø- og biovitenskapelige universitet (NMBU, Ås).

ProPACT stuiden er en substudie av den større befolksnings-basert intervensjon studie (PACT studien) som hadde målet om å redusere allergi-relaterte sykdommer i barndommen ved å redusere eksponering til sigarett røyk, forbedre inneklimaet og øke inntak av fisk og tran gjennom svangerskapet og tidlig i livet.
