Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are ultimately responsible for the all mature blood cell production. They can primarily be found in the bone marrow (BM) at a low frequency (~0.02%). Unlike other blood cells, HSCs have a high degree of self-renewal capacity, the process where upon cell division, at least one daughter cell has the same properties as the stem cell it was generated from. In addition,

Abstract. The theory of joining-systems (TJS), as developed in this chapter, consists of three main parts, developed after the infor- mal introduction and overview in Sections 1 and 2. One part (Section 3) is the abstract theory of joining-systems, providing the framework for the subsequent analysis. Two other parts introduce those concepts and results of the theory that are in focus for the repre
This book chapter argues for a socialist feminist approach in Swedish contemporary politics.
Om man betraktar människan som varg, lamm eller blanddjur har konsekvenser för ens syn på samhället och politiken. Omvänt så har uppfattningen om samhället och politiken rimligtvis konsekvenser för en syn på människan. Boken utforskar på teorihistorisk väg sambandet, eller snarare några möjliga samband, mellan de i titeln angivna komponenterna. I centrum för framställningen står de fem i undertite
Popular Abstract in Swedish Blodparasiter och blåmesar - en studie i rött och blått Alla har någon gång varit utsatta för parasiter. Man kan nog till och med vara säker på, att just i den stund du läser detta, finn's det någonstan's någon form av parasit som försöker attackera dig. I dom allra flesta fall misslycka's sådana försök tack vare ett mycket starkt och mångfacetterat försvar. Förutom deParasites are ubiquitous and can cause significant fitness reductions to their hosts. Therefore, selection for the evolution of host resistance should be strong. However, resistance may be costly and should be traded-off against other fitness related traits. Parasites could therefore have a significant impact on the evolution of fitness related characters of their hosts. It has been suggested that
Deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) are the building blocks of DNA and can be synthesized either de novo or via salvage pathways. The first reaction in the salvage pathway of dNTPs is the conversion of deoxyribonucleosides (dN) into the deoxyribonucleoside monophosphate (dNMP). The corresponding enzymes, deoxyribonucleoside kinases (dNKs), are also important for the activation of many nucleo
It is shown that the isoscalar strength in the energy region just above the low energy threshold, which is created by exciting particles to the continuum in nuclei far from β-stability lines, can be reduced by the attractive coupling to isoscalar shape oscillations. This is in contrast to the well known fact that in β-stable nuclei low lying isoscalar particle hole strengths are always increased b
The immune system is an important part of the physiology of higher organisms. In the immune system antibodies play a key role in neutralizing and clearing potentially lethal threats from the environment. The importance of antibodies in the immune system has made them come to the attention as a tool in chemistry and medicine. This thesis, which is based on four original papers, deal with antibody d
Moderna, multimodala texter är visuellt fragmenterade i den meningen att de byggs upp av rad olika visuella element. Här finns visuellt avgränsade skriftstycken som brödtext, rubrik och ingress, det finns ofta bilder, grafer, kartor, punktlistor samt andra typer av layoutelement (som ramar, rutor och streck) för att organisera sidan. T.ex. ser ett modernt tidningsuppslag inte ut som ett för hundra
Popular Abstract in Swedish Under 1990-talet genomfördes en genomgripande reform av det svenska gymnasiet. Dels ersattes de tidigare gymnasielinjerna med treåriga program, som samtliga ger en grundläggande högskolebehörighet, dels flyttades ansvaret för utbildningens genomförande och ekonomi från staten till kommunerna. Ett kriterierelaterat betygssystem ersatte också det tidigare normrelaterade. The general confidence in equal opportunity and equivalent grades are crucial to the moral justification of the social stratification in the modern society, in which meritocracy holds a hegemonic status. In Sweden, a political aim has been that everybody should get upper secondary education, and the government has established a National Agency for Education to promote and control the quality in ed
Based on in-depth interviews with single and married rural women working as temporary migrants in Beijing, this thesis explores motives for migration, as well as consequences of migration on women with regard to social status and their status as dughters, wives and mothers. The thesis concludes that customs regarding marriage and child-bearing in the home villages of the migrants contribute to the
