Arthrosc Sports Med Rehabil . 2020 Apr; 2(1):e7-e15. PMID: 32266353
Purpose: To determine the results of operatively treated chronic acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocations after 2-year follow-up. Methods: Fifty-eight patients with chronic acromioclavicular separations underwent arthroscopic coracoclavicular ligament reconstructions using semitendinosus...

Kukkonen M, Vehmas T, Piirila P, Hirvonen A
Occup Environ Med . 2013 Oct; 71(1):48-54. PMID: 24142982
Objectives: To determine whether genetic polymorphisms in several candidate genes related to innate immunity and protease-antiprotease balance modify individual susceptibility to develop asbestos-related fibrotic pleuropulmonary changes. Methods: Sixteen polymorphisms from...

Kukkonen M, Tiili E, Vehmas T, Oksa P, Piirila P, Hirvonen A
BMC Pulm Med . 2013 Jun; 13:36. PMID: 23734748
Background: The imbalance between proteases and antiproteases has been proposed to participate to the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and emphysema. Gene level variation in different metalloproteinases, metalloproteinase...

Kukkonen M, Tiili E, Hamalainen S, Vehmas T, Oksa P, Piirila P, et al.
BMC Med Genet . 2011 Dec; 12:157. PMID: 22145704
Background: SERPINE2 (serpin peptidase inhibitor, clade E, member 2) has previously been identified as a positional candidate gene for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and has subsequently been associated to...

Kukkonen M, Hamalainen S, Kaleva S, Vehmas T, Huuskonen M, Oksa P, et al.
Pharmacogenet Genomics . 2011 Oct; 21(12):876-83. PMID: 22027651
Background: Pulmonary emphysema is a smoking-induced condition of the lung. Genetically determined differences in the activities of enzymes that metabolize oxidative agents are suspected to modify individual susceptibility to emphysema,...

Korkeamaki H, Viiri K, Kukkonen M, Maki M, Lohi O
FEBS Lett . 2007 Dec; 582(2):379-84. PMID: 18070604
Covalent modification of histones regulates chromatin structure and gene expression. Sin3A mediates the association of histone deacetylase enzymes with a large number of sequence-specific transcriptional repressors. In this study we...
