Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Genetics, Gene and Biochemistry. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Lesion and PON1. He is involved in the study of Endocrinology that focuses on Cholesterol in particular.

The concepts of his Cholesterol study are interwoven with issues in Liver X receptor, Choline and Trimethylamine N-oxide. Aldons J. Lusis combines subjects such as Molecular biology and Myeloperoxidase with his study of Biochemistry. His Quantitative trait locus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Expression quantitative trait loci and Gene regulatory network.

His most cited work include:

  • Atherosclerosis : Vascular biology (2854 citations)
  • Gut flora metabolism of phosphatidylcholine promotes cardiovascular disease (2806 citations)
  • Intestinal microbiota metabolism of L-carnitine, a nutrient in red meat, promotes atherosclerosis (2176 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Gene and Molecular biology. His study involves Quantitative trait locus, Locus, Genome-wide association study, Candidate gene and Expression quantitative trait loci, a branch of Genetics. The Quantitative trait locus study combines topics in areas such as Regulation of gene expression and Inbred strain.

His study in Internal medicine is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genetically modified mouse and Hyperlipidemia. Aldons J. Lusis has included themes like Inflammation and Apolipoprotein E in his Endocrinology study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Complementary DNA, Peptide sequence and Biochemistry in addition to Molecular biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (34.55%)
  • Internal medicine (27.40%)
  • Endocrinology (25.91%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (27.40%)
  • Endocrinology (25.91%)
  • Genome-wide association study (10.26%)

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

Aldons J. Lusis focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Genome-wide association study, Adipose tissue and Genetics. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Diabetes mellitus and Fructose. As a part of the same scientific family, Aldons J. Lusis mostly works in the field of Endocrinology, focusing on Mitochondrion and, on occasion, Dyslipidemia.

His studies in Genome-wide association study integrate themes in fields like Expression quantitative trait loci, Locus and Candidate gene. His Adipose tissue research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Metabolic syndrome and Bioinformatics. His work carried out in the field of Quantitative trait locus brings together such families of science as Proteome and Sterol, Cholesterol.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Development of a gut microbe-targeted nonlethal therapeutic to inhibit thrombosis potential (160 citations)
  • Landscape of Intercellular Crosstalk in Healthy and NASH Liver Revealed by Single-Cell Secretome Gene Analysis. (121 citations)
  • Transcriptional regulation of macrophage cholesterol efflux and atherogenesis by a long noncoding RNA. (100 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Adipose tissue, Gene expression and Computational biology. His Internal medicine research incorporates elements of Mitochondrion and Genomic imprinting. The study incorporates disciplines such as Heterozygote advantage, DNM1L and Phosphorylation in addition to Endocrinology.

His Gene expression study is related to the wider topic of Gene. His Gene study is concerned with the larger field of Genetics. His study on Computational biology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Human interactome that connect with fields like HEK 293 cells, Lipotoxicity, Pathogenesis and Subcellular localization,
  • Proteomics which connect with Transcript analysis, Library preparation, Deep sequencing, DNA microarray and Differential expression analysis,
  • Gene knockdown and related Trimethylamine N-oxide, Lipoprotein, Insulin and Choline.
