1. Du är NK! : Konstruktioner av yrkesidentiteter på varuhuset NK ur ett genus- och klassperspektiv 1918-1975
Sammanfattning : How were work identities of female and male shop assistants in the clothing departments at NK constructed, and how did this change over time? The starting point of this thesis has been that identities are contextually constructed. Focus has been set on trying to understand how the process of ‘making’ identity has been done in a historical perspective for shop assistants in clothing departments at the department store NK, AB Nordiska Kompaniet, in Stockholm.

2. Activation of murine cytotoxic cells with interelukin-2 and the bacterial superantigen staphylococcal entertoxin A
Sammanfattning : Natural killer (NK) cells and T lymphocytes are the major effector cells that can recognize and kill tumor cells. NK cells have a constitutive cytotoxic activity and kill a wide spectrum of tumor cells while T cells recognize specific tumor antigens and need to be activated through their TCR to differentiate into cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) killers or T helper cells.

3. Imaging-based methods for NK cell studies at the single-cell level
Sammanfattning : The immune system provides defense against infectious agents such as viruses, bacteria and parasites. Besides eliminating extracellular agents, the immune system also constantly monitors our own cells for signs of transformation, including tumor development and virus infection. LÄS MER
4. On the role of Natural Killer cell immunogenetics for the outcome of immunotherapy in acute myeloid leukemia
Sammanfattning : Numerous studies have revealed that natural killer cells have fundamental roles as effector cells in myeloid leukemias. Thus, understanding NK cell-related biomarkers that influence clinical outcome are warranted. LÄS MER
5. Dynamic shaping of human NK cell receptor repertoires : implications for NK cell-based immunotherapy
Sammanfattning : Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphocytes with a potent intrinsic capacity to kill tumor cells, which makes them attractive candidates for cell-based cancer immunotherapy. Advances during the past decade have revealed that NK cells display a high degree of functional plasticity, suggesting that some subsets may be more effective in targeting cancer cells. LÄS MER
