Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Immune system

Andrés Vázquez-Torres mostly deals with Microbiology, Salmonella, Virulence, Macrophage and Nitric oxide synthase. His research integrates issues of Immune system, Immunity and Salmonella enterica in his study of Microbiology. The Salmonella study combines topics in areas such as Enterobacteriaceae and Intracellular.

His Virulence research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mutant and Regulon. His Macrophage research integrates issues from Phagocytosis, Immunology, Candida albicans, Corpus albicans and Superoxide. He has researched Nitric oxide synthase in several fields, including Respiratory burst, Oxidase test and Reactive oxygen species.

His most cited work include:

  • Genes encoding putative effector proteins of the type III secretion system of Salmonella pathogenicity island 2 are required for bacterial virulence and proliferation in macrophages (542 citations)
  • Salmonella pathogenicity island 2-dependent evasion of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase. (495 citations)
  • Antimicrobial Actions of the Nadph Phagocyte Oxidase and Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase in Experimental Salmonellosis. I. Effects on Microbial Killing by Activated Peritoneal Macrophages in Vitro (456 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Salmonella, Salmonella enterica, Virulence and Reactive nitrogen species. His research in Microbiology intersects with topics in Macrophage, Mutant and Immunology. His Macrophage study combines topics in areas such as Phagocytosis and Superoxide.

Andrés Vázquez-Torres has included themes like Phagosome, Biochemistry, Intracellular, Effector and Oxidase test in his Salmonella study. The concepts of his Salmonella enterica study are interwoven with issues in Cytochrome, Enzyme and Antimicrobial. Andrés Vázquez-Torres has included themes like Pathogen and Enterobacteriaceae, Regulon, Escherichia coli in his Virulence study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (68.47%)
  • Salmonella (46.85%)
  • Salmonella enterica (30.63%)

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

  • Cell biology (26.13%)
  • Microbiology (68.47%)
  • Stringent response (21.62%)

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

Andrés Vázquez-Torres spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Microbiology, Stringent response, Salmonella and Transcription. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Respiratory burst and Metabolic pathway. His study ties his expertise on Reactive oxygen species together with the subject of Microbiology.

His study deals with a combination of Salmonella and Convergent evolution. His Transcription research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Chaperone and Pathogenicity island. His study looks at the relationship between Mutant and fields such as Virulence, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Salmonella Reprograms Nucleotide Metabolism in Its Adaptation to Nitrosative Stress (24 citations)
  • DksA-DnaJ redox interactions provide a signal for the activation of bacterial RNA polymerase. (19 citations)
  • DksA-DnaJ redox interactions provide a signal for the activation of bacterial RNA polymerase. (19 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Immune system

His scientific interests lie mostly in Reactive nitrogen species, Cell biology, Stringent response, Pathogenesis and Antimicrobial. His studies in Reactive nitrogen species integrate themes in fields like Glycolysis, Substrate-level phosphorylation, Oxidative phosphorylation and Salmonella. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Alarmone and Polymerase.

His Stringent response research includes themes of RNA polymerase, Transcriptional regulation, Chaperone and Zinc finger. His Pathogenesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Gut flora and Microbiology.
