Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

Immunology, Interleukin 21, Interleukin 12, Cell biology and Lymphokine-activated killer cell are his primary areas of study. Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren combines subjects such as Natural killer cell and Cytotoxic T cell with his study of Immunology. His study in Interleukin 21 is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecular biology, Cell, Stem cell and Virology.

Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren has included themes like Interferon, Dendritic cell, In vivo and Hepatitis C virus in his Interleukin 12 study. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Toll-like receptor, Receptor, Perforin, Cytotoxicity and CD16. Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren interconnects Ex vivo, Janus kinase 3, NK Cell Lectin-Like Receptor Subfamily C, Multiple myeloma and Transplantation in the investigation of issues within Lymphokine-activated killer cell.

His most cited work include:

  • In search of the 'missing self': MHC molecules and NK cell recognition. (2156 citations)
  • Selective rejection of H–2-deficient lymphoma variants suggests alternative immune defence strategy (1782 citations)
  • Association of class I major histocompatibility heavy and light chains induced by viral peptides. (874 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren mainly investigates Immunology, MHC class I, Cell biology, Cytotoxic T cell and Interleukin 21. His Immunology research integrates issues from Natural killer cell and Cell. Within one scientific family, Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren focuses on topics pertaining to Molecular biology under MHC class I, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Cell culture, Beta-2 microglobulin, Mutant and In vivo.

His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Perforin, Receptor and NKG2D. As a member of one scientific family, Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren mostly works in the field of Interleukin 21, focusing on Interleukin 12 and, on occasion, Natural killer T cell and IL-2 receptor. His study in Major histocompatibility complex is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Antigen presentation and Peptide.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (55.41%)
  • MHC class I (25.41%)
  • Cell biology (21.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Immunology (55.41%)
  • Immune system (18.65%)
  • Cell (13.78%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren spends much of his time researching Immunology, Immune system, Cell, Cytotoxic T cell and Virology. Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren regularly ties together related areas like Natural killer cell in his Immunology studies. His study in the field of Innate immune system and Chemokine receptor is also linked to topics like Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.

His studies in Cell integrate themes in fields like Receptor, Leukemia, MHC class I and Cytolysis. His work deals with themes such as Cancer research and Effector, which intersect with Cytotoxic T cell. His research investigates the connection between Interleukin 21 and topics such as Cell biology that intersect with issues in Cell type.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Robust T Cell Immunity in Convalescent Individuals with Asymptomatic or Mild COVID-19. (477 citations)
  • Cytomegalovirus infection drives adaptive epigenetic diversification of NK cells with altered signaling and effector function. (397 citations)
  • Guidelines for the use of flow cytometry and cell sorting in immunological studies (second edition) (345 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

His scientific interests lie mostly in Immunology, Immune system, Cell, Lymphokine-activated killer cell and Interleukin 21. The concepts of his Immunology study are interwoven with issues in Natural killer cell, Cytotoxic T cell, Receptor and Virology. His work on Granzyme B and CD8 as part of general Immune system study is frequently linked to Hepatitis D, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Cell study incorporates themes from Virus, Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and Immunity. His study looks at the relationship between Interleukin 21 and fields such as Interleukin 12, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Hans-Gustaf Ljunggren combines subjects such as Perforin and NK Cell Lectin-Like Receptor Subfamily C with his study of Cell biology.
