Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

His scientific interests lie mostly in Immunology, Primary biliary cirrhosis, Antibody, Autoantibody and Epitope. Immunology is frequently linked to Virology in his study. His Primary biliary cirrhosis research integrates issues from Biochemistry, Biliary cirrhosis, Pathology, Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and Autoimmunity.

His Antibody research incorporates elements of Immunohistochemistry and Major histocompatibility complex. His study in Autoantibody is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Autoimmune disease, Primary sclerosing cholangitis and Antigen. Aftab A. Ansari focuses mostly in the field of Epitope, narrowing it down to topics relating to Molecular biology and, in certain cases, Dihydrolipoyllysine-Residue Acetyltransferase, Recombinant DNA, Tumor necrosis factor alpha and Peptide sequence.

His most cited work include:

  • A Cathepsin D-Cleaved 16 kDa Form of Prolactin Mediates Postpartum Cardiomyopathy (572 citations)
  • Markedly elevated levels of interferon (IFN)-γ, IFN-α, interleukin (IL)-2, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor-α associated with fatal Ebola virus infection (256 citations)
  • Identification of HLA-A2-restricted CD8(+) cytotoxic T cell responses in primary biliary cirrhosis: T cell activation is augmented by immune complexes cross-presented by dendritic cells. (248 citations)

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

Aftab A. Ansari focuses on Immunology, Virology, Primary biliary cirrhosis, Antibody and Immune system. CD8, Autoimmunity, T cell, Autoantibody and Cytokine are the core of his Immunology study. His work on Virology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Peripheral blood mononuclear cell.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Epitope, Biliary cirrhosis, Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and Pathology in addition to Primary biliary cirrhosis. His studies in Antibody integrate themes in fields like Molecular biology and Antigen. His Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Major histocompatibility complex and Recombinant DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (58.70%)
  • Virology (26.00%)
  • Primary biliary cirrhosis (26.83%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Immunology (58.70%)
  • Virology (26.00%)
  • Immune system (17.82%)

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

Aftab A. Ansari spends much of his time researching Immunology, Virology, Immune system, T cell and Primary biliary cirrhosis. His study in Antibody, CD8, Simian immunodeficiency virus, Viral load and Cytokine falls within the category of Immunology. In the subject of general Virology, his work in Virus and Viremia is often linked to Global health, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

The various areas that Aftab A. Ansari examines in his Immune system study include Inflammation, Vedolizumab, Disease and Pathogenesis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cytotoxic T cell, Receptor, Molecular biology and Immunotherapy. His Primary biliary cirrhosis study also includes fields such as

  • Apoptosis and Cell biology most often made with reference to Interleukin,
  • Pathology which connect with Internal medicine.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sustained virologic control in SIV+ macaques after antiretroviral and α4β7 antibody therapy (145 citations)
  • Gut microbial profile is altered in primary biliary cholangitis and partially restored after UDCA therapy (136 citations)
  • The Zika outbreak of the 21st century. (126 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

Immunology, Primary biliary cirrhosis, T cell, Cytotoxic T cell and Virology are his primary areas of study. His work in Antibody, Cytokine, Immune system, Guillain-Barre syndrome and Simian immunodeficiency virus are all subfields of Immunology research. The Antibody study combines topics in areas such as Xenobiotic, Serum albumin and Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.

His research in Primary biliary cirrhosis intersects with topics in Isotype, Transforming growth factor, Prospective cohort study, Pathology and Interleukin. The concepts of his Cytotoxic T cell study are interwoven with issues in Receptor and CD8. His study in the field of Virus, Rabies virus and Viral replication is also linked to topics like Global health.
