Major histocompatibility complex class I binding glycopeptides for the estimation of 'empty' class I molecules
- 1995
-
In: Journal of Immunological Methods. - : Elsevier BV. - 0022-1759. ; 188:1, s. 21-31

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Different forms of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I heavy chains are known to be expressed on the cell surface, including molecules which are functionally 'empty'. Direct peptide binding to cells is obvious during sensitization of target cells in vitro for cytotoxic T lymphocyte killing and 'empty' MHC-I molecules are comparatively abundant on TAP- 1 2 peptide transporter mutant cells. In the present work we have estimated the fraction of 'empty' MHC class I molecules using glycosylated peptides and cellular staining with carbohydrate specific monoclonal antibodies. Synthetic Db and Kb binding peptides were coupled at different positions with different di- or trisaccharides, using different spacing between the carbohydrate and the peptide backbone. Binding of sugar specific mAbs was compared in ELISA and cellular assays. An optimal Db binding glycopeptide was used for comparative staining with anti-Db and anti-carbohydrate monoclonal antibodies to estimate fractions of 'empty' molecules on different T lymphoid cells. On activated normal T cells, a large fraction of Db molecules were found to be 'empty'. The functional cole of such 'empty' MHC class I molecules on T cells is presently unclear. However, on antigen presenting cells they might participate in the antigen presentation process.

Coronakrisen synliggör behovet av att analysera arbete som ett kall

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Under pågående pandemi vittnar yrkesutövare inom vård och omsorg om allvarliga arbetsmiljöbrister, samtidigt som framställningar av arbetets vidare mening aldrig varit så närvarande. Sociologerna Bengtsson och Flisbäck betonar vikten av att återuppväcka kallbegreppet, vilket varit utskällt i debatter om svenskt arbetsliv.

Existential Driving Forces to Work after Retirement : The Example of Physicians’ Mentoring
- 2021
-
In: Nordic Journal of Working Life Studies. - : Det Kgl. Bibliotek/Royal Danish Library. - 2245-0157.
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The article addresses physicians who work as group supervisors or mentors in a training program after having formally retired. The driving forces to continue to work are analyzed in terms of the development of existential meaning of work at a particular stage of the life cycle. We argue that a deeper understanding of the existential driving forces, that both cause physicians to accept post-retirement mentoring tasks and that is awakened and developed in this specific work, would contribute to a deeper understanding of why individuals continue working into old age. However, in political discussions of an extended working life, similar aspects tend to be disregarded. Understanding the existential driving forces that cause an individual to continue working after retirement may be crucial to comprehending how we can take advantage of the resources of the older workforce and, thus, realize human potential at a later stage of the life cycle.

Illuminating Existential Meaning: A New Approach in the Study of Retirement
- 2021
-
In: Qualitative Sociology Review. - : Uniwersytet Lodzki (University of Lodz). - 1733-8077. ; 17:1, s. 196-214
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Current discussions on the importance of retirement are largely built on statistical analyses of longitudinal data showing that well-being seldom changes from before to after entering retirement, but is rather mainly dependent on the individual’s social resource position. In contrast, qualitatively oriented researchers underline that the retirement process is a complex life transition that needs to be further illuminated. To do this, however, we need to advance new theoretical and methodological perspectives. In this article, an existential sociology approach is outlined, emphasizing the multifaceted spectra of lived experiences and meaning-making in the retirement process. The phenomenological approaches of existential sociology allow us to consider how the exit from working life is created in the processes of motion rather than as expressions of static positions. A merit of this approach is that retirement as an empirical case may say something general about being in transition as a basic social condition. In the article, we discuss how a socio-biographical methodology, based on longitudinal qualitative interviews, helps us capture how existential meaning is formed and re-formed in the ambiguous situations which arise in similar life-course transitions. Theoretically, we especially draw on concepts from the existential anthropologist Jackson and the phenomenological tradition of existential philosophers such as Arendt and Heidegger.

Möjligheter till meningsfullt arbete i ett förlängt yrkesliv: En studie av äldre läkares grupphandledning av utlandsutbildade kollegor
- 2019

In: Arbetsliv i omvandling. - Lund. - 1404-8426. ; 2019:1, s. 1-61

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- I texten studeras äldre läkares grupphandledning av utlandsutbildade kollegor som ett fall av meningsfullt arbete i ett förlängt yrkesliv. När det fastslås att ett förlängt yrkesliv behövs för att säkra samhällets välfärdsnivå ställs ofta frågan om vilka arbetsuppgifter som äldre kan utföra. Vi pekar istället på hur äldre kan besitta specifika kompetenser som är viktiga att tillvarata. Samtidigt hävdar vi att möjligheten till ett förlängt yrkesliv bör belysas utifrån att det finns livs- och åldersspecifika drivkrafter för att utföra vissa typer av uppgifter. Att ta vara på äldres specifika kompetenser genom sysslor som är existentiellt meningsfulla är således väsentligt ur samhälls-, organisations- och individperspektiv. I textens avslutning reflekterar vi över hur dessa aspekter skulle kunna överföras till fler yrken än det studerade. Fallets överförbarhet problematiseras när vi pekar på hur klassvillkor samspelar med möjligheten till ett meningsfullt arbete och att vara i en position där kompetensen inte betraktas som utbytbar.
