Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Cancer

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Beta-catenin, Cancer research, Molecular biology and Catenin. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cellular differentiation, Cell adhesion, Adherens junction and Cytoskeleton. Avri Ben-Ze'ev has researched Beta-catenin in several fields, including Cadherin, Colorectal cancer, Actin cytoskeleton and Cell growth.

His studies in Cancer research integrate themes in fields like Carcinogenesis, Suppressor, Transcription factor, Signal transduction and Adenomatous polyposis coli. His Molecular biology study also includes fields such as

  • Vinculin which connect with Transfection and 3T3 cells,
  • Cell culture that intertwine with fields like Antigen and Hsp70. His work in Catenin addresses subjects such as Transactivation, which are connected to disciplines such as Cyclin A2, Cyclin A, Cyclin B and Cyclin D.

His most cited work include:

  • The Cyclin D1 Gene Is a Target of the beta-catenin/LEF-1 Pathway (1977 citations)
  • The cadherin-catenin adhesion system in signaling and cancer (523 citations)
  • Cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions differentially regulate the expression of hepatic and cytoskeletal genes in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. (499 citations)

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

Cell biology, Molecular biology, Cytoskeleton, Cancer research and Cell culture are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cadherin, Adherens junction and Cell adhesion. His Molecular biology study which covers RNA that intersects with DNA, Protein biosynthesis and Gene expression.

His biological study deals with issues like Cytoplasm, which deal with fields such as Nucleus. His Cancer research study combines topics in areas such as Wnt signaling pathway, Carcinogenesis, Ezrin, Metastasis and Adenomatous polyposis coli. He focuses mostly in the field of Catenin, narrowing it down to matters related to Beta-catenin and, in some cases, Actin cytoskeleton.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (60.51%)
  • Molecular biology (25.48%)
  • Cytoskeleton (19.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2021)?

  • Cancer research (19.11%)
  • Metastasis (13.38%)
  • Wnt signaling pathway (16.56%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cancer research, Metastasis, Wnt signaling pathway, Colorectal cancer and Carcinogenesis. His Cancer research research includes themes of Cell, Cell culture, L1, Cancer stem cell and Ezrin. His Metastasis research incorporates elements of Cancer cell, Signal transduction, Cell adhesion molecule and Transfection.

His study with Signal transduction involves better knowledge in Cell biology. Avri Ben-Ze'ev regularly links together related areas like Cadherin in his Cell biology studies. Avri Ben-Ze'ev focuses mostly in the field of Carcinogenesis, narrowing it down to topics relating to Transactivation and, in certain cases, Stromal cell.

Between 2005 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Epithelial-mesenchymal transition and the invasive potential of tumors. (262 citations)
  • Fascin, a Novel Target of β-Catenin-TCF Signaling, Is Expressed at the Invasive Front of Human Colon Cancer (222 citations)
  • Expression of L1-CAM and ADAM10 in Human Colon Cancer Cells Induces Metastasis (152 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Cancer

His scientific interests lie mostly in Metastasis, Cell biology, Cancer cell, Colorectal cancer and Cancer research. His Metastasis course of study focuses on L1 and Immunoglobulin superfamily, Tumor progression, Cell growth, Ezrin and Small hairpin RNA. His study brings together the fields of Cadherin and Cell biology.

His studies examine the connections between Cadherin and genetics, as well as such issues in Cytoplasm, with regards to Cell. In his study, Cell culture, Transfection and Somatic evolution in cancer is strongly linked to Pathology, which falls under the umbrella field of Cancer cell. His Signal transduction study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Regulation of gene expression, Cell adhesion molecule and Phosphorylation.
