Legitimitet i förhållande till hjälporganistioner : En kvalitativ studie om legitimitetsskapande och synen på nya typer av aktörer

Denna studie har ett syfte att undersöka hur legitimitet kan skapas i hjälporganisationer. Det är en fråga vi anser vara aktuell att undersöka i och med uppkomsten av nya hjälporganisationer vars trovärdighet i somliga fall kan anses högst tveksam. Studiens resultat kommer att illustreras i en verklig hjälporganisation. Denna organisation kommer förbli anonym genom hela uppsatsen men med sitt kontroversiella arbetssätt och moderna arbetsmetoder anses den förespråka den typ av organisation som vi vill undersöka inom det hjälporganisatoriska fältet.

TCP fusion proteins induce rtTAm-dependent expression of GFP. We transfected HEK cells with mCherry, mCherry-TCP, or mCherry-NLS-TCP constitutive expression plasmids, respectively, also transfected TRE3G promoter controlled GFP expression plasmid to all the three groups of cells. We divided mCherry transfected cells into two dishes and treated one dish of the cells with 1 μg/ml Dox at 24 h after transfection. The images were collected at 72 h after transfection. (TIF 532 kb

Kinetics of the circuit. (A) Kinetics of the circuit responding to blue light illumination with constitutive rtTAm expression. The cells were illuminated by blue LED (1.25 W m−2) for 0 h, 5 h, 10 h, 20 h and 40 h, respectively. The data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6). (B) Kinetics of the circuit responding to Dox with constitutive rtTAm expression. The cells were treated with 1 μg/ml of Dox for 0 h, 5 h, 10 h and 20 h, respectively. The data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6). (C) Kinetics of the circuit responding to cumate with constitutive mCherry-TCP expression. The cells were treated with 30 μg/ml of cumate for 0 h, 5 h, 10 h, 20 h and 40 h, respectively. The data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 6). (TIF 1013 kb

BackgroundIncreasing evidence suggests the immune activation elicited by bacterial outer-membrane vesicles (OMVs) can initiate a potent anti-tumor immunity, facilitating the recognition and destruction of malignant cells. At present the pathways underlying this response remain poorly understood, though a role for innate-like cells such as γδ T cells has been suggested.MethodsPeripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy donors were co-cultured with E. coli MG1655 Δpal ΔlpxM OMVs and corresponding immune activation studied by cell marker expression and cytokine production. OMV-activated γδ T cells were co-cultured with cancer cell lines to determine cytotoxicity.ResultsThe vesicles induced a broad inflammatory response with γδ T cells observed as the predominant cell type to proliferate post-OMV challenge. Notably, the majority of γδ T cells were of the Vγ9Vδ2 type, known to respond to both bacterial metabolites and stress markers present on tumor cells. We observed robust cytolytic activity of Vγ9Vδ2 T cells against both breast and leukaemia cell lines (SkBr3 and Nalm6 respectively) after OMV-mediated expansion.ConclusionsOur findings identify for the first time, that OMV-challenge stimulates the expansion of Vγ9Vδ2 T cells which subsequently present anti-tumor capabilities. We propose that OMV-mediated immune activation leverages the anti-microbial/anti-tumor capacity of Vγ9Vδ2 T cells, an axis amenable for improved future therapeutics.</p
