Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry
  • Amino acid

Albert W. Girotti mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Lipid peroxidation, Antioxidant, Glutathione and Membrane. His Biochemistry study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Protoporphyrin IX. His Lipid peroxidation study is focused on Oxidative stress in general.

Albert W. Girotti interconnects Endothelial stem cell and Lactate dehydrogenase in the investigation of issues within Glutathione. His work investigates the relationship between Membrane and topics such as Singlet oxygen that intersect with problems in Photochemistry, Detoxification, Cytoprotection and Cholesterol. His work deals with themes such as Cytotoxic T cell, Cancer, Tumor cell death and Therapeutic Procedure, which intersect with Photodynamic therapy.

His most cited work include:

  • Photodynamic therapy of cancer: An update†‡ (2464 citations)
  • Regulation of Ferroptotic Cancer Cell Death by GPX4 (1240 citations)
  • Lipid hydroperoxide generation, turnover, and effector action in biological systems (965 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Lipid peroxidation, Nitric oxide, Photodynamic therapy and Membrane. Biochemistry is closely attributed to Molecular biology in his work. His Lipid peroxidation study is concerned with Antioxidant in general.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Apoptosis, Protein kinase B, Survivin and Protoporphyrin IX in addition to Nitric oxide. His research integrates issues of Cancer, Cancer research, Cisplatin, Pathology and Cytotoxic T cell in his study of Photodynamic therapy. His Membrane research includes elements of Singlet oxygen, Biophysics, Liposome and Photochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (45.09%)
  • Lipid peroxidation (35.26%)
  • Nitric oxide (21.97%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Photodynamic therapy (21.39%)
  • Cancer research (19.08%)
  • Nitric oxide (21.97%)

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

Albert W. Girotti spends much of his time researching Photodynamic therapy, Cancer research, Nitric oxide, Nitric oxide synthase and Downregulation and upregulation. In the subject of general Photodynamic therapy, his work in Protoporphyrin IX is often linked to Special case, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Albert W. Girotti has researched Cancer research in several fields, including Cancer cell, Bystander effect, Cell killing and Cisplatin.

His research on Nitric oxide also deals with topics like

  • Apoptosis together with Pathology,
  • Cytotoxic T cell, which have a strong connection to Oxidative stress, Sterol, Sterol carrier protein and Cell signaling,
  • In vitro that connect with fields like Signal transduction. His Nitric oxide synthase study combines topics in areas such as Cell and Immunology. His work on Reverse cholesterol transport as part of general Biochemistry research is often related to ABCA1, thus linking different fields of science.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Photodynamic therapy (PDT) for malignant brain tumors--where do we stand? (96 citations)
  • Accelerated migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells after a photodynamic therapy-like challenge: Role of nitric oxide (37 citations)
  • Nitric oxide-mediated resistance to photodynamic therapy in a human breast tumor xenograft model: Improved outcome with NOS2 inhibitors. (25 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry
  • Amino acid

Albert W. Girotti mostly deals with Nitric oxide, Cancer research, Photodynamic therapy, Downregulation and upregulation and Nitric oxide synthase. His Nitric oxide study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Apoptosis. His Cancer research study deals with Endogeny intersecting with Cytotoxic T cell, Carcinoma and Pathology.

By researching both Photodynamic therapy and Clinical Practice, he produces research that crosses academic boundaries. His Downregulation and upregulation research overlaps with ABCA1, Biochemistry, Reverse cholesterol transport, Cell biology and STARD4. His Nitric oxide synthase research includes themes of Cell, Cisplatin, Cancer cell, Immunology and Glioma.
