Uffe Holmskov is affiliated with the University of Southern Denmark in Denmark. Their research primarily spans the fields of Medicine as well as Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology. Within these disciplines, they have contributed notably to Molecular Biology, Genetics, Oncology, Epidemiology, and Pulmonary and Respiratory Medicine.

The main topics of Holmskov's work include Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Liver Disease Diagnosis and Treatment, Liver Disease and Transplantation, Gut microbiota and health, Glycosylation and Glycoproteins Research, Oral health in cancer treatment, and Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress and Disease.

Holmskov's recent publications reflect a diverse engagement with these topics. Notable papers include:

  • Prediction of liver fibrosis severity in alcoholic liver disease by human microfibrillar-associated protein 4, 2020, Liver International
  • Inflammatory bowel disease, colitis, and cancer: unmasking the chronic inflammation link, 2024, International Journal of Colorectal Disease
  • Intestinal protozoan infections shape fecal bacterial microbiota in children from Guinea-Bissau, 2021, PLoS neglected tropical diseases
  • Restoration of miR-330 expression suppresses lung cancer cell viability, proliferation, and migration, 2020, Journal of Cellular Physiology
  • Generation of novel trimeric fragments of human SP-A and SP-D after recombinant soluble expression in E. coli, 2020, Immunobiology

Holmskov frequently publishes in several venues, with multiple contributions to JHEP Reports, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), and Research Square (Research Square). Additional publications appear in Frontiers in Oncology and the International Journal of Colorectal Disease.

Collaboration is a significant aspect of Holmskov's work, with frequent co-authors including Grith Lykke Sørensen, Anders Schlosser, Jesper B. Moeller, Bartosz Pilecki, and Anders Bathum Nexøe. These collaborations span various aspects of their research fields and topics.
