Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Virus
  • Immune system

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Kaposi's sarcoma, Virology, Immunology, Angiogenesis and Virus. Her Kaposi's sarcoma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cell culture, Basic fibroblast growth factor, Antigen, Peripheral blood mononuclear cell and Programmed cell death. Her Virology study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Antibody, Gene and Immunity.

In her research on the topic of Immunology, Serology is strongly related with Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Her Angiogenesis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Proinflammatory cytokine, Endothelial stem cell, Vascular endothelial growth factor A and Cell growth. Her studies in Virus integrate themes in fields like Disease, Pathogenesis and Provirus.

Her most cited work include:

  • Tat protein of HIV-1 stimulates growth of cells derived from Kaposi's sarcoma lesions of AIDS patients (775 citations)
  • Release, uptake, and effects of extracellular human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Tat protein on cell growth and viral transactivation. (752 citations)
  • Synergy between basic fibroblast growth factor and HIV-1 Tat protein in induction of Kaposi's sarcoma (512 citations)

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

Barbara Ensoli mostly deals with Virology, Immunology, Virus, Immune system and Kaposi's sarcoma. Barbara Ensoli works mostly in the field of Virology, limiting it down to topics relating to Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and, in certain cases, Viral disease, as a part of the same area of interest. In her research, Cytokine and Matrix metalloproteinase is intimately related to Cancer research, which falls under the overarching field of Immunology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular biology, Cell culture and Transactivation in addition to Virus. Her Immune system research incorporates themes from Adjuvant and Cytotoxic T cell. Her study on Kaposi's sarcoma also encompasses disciplines like

  • Proinflammatory cytokine which intersects with area such as Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Integrin and Cell biology,
  • Sarcoma and related Pathogenesis,
  • Angiogenesis that connect with fields like Basic fibroblast growth factor and Endothelial stem cell.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (47.97%)
  • Immunology (42.73%)
  • Virus (21.22%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Immunology (42.73%)
  • Virology (47.97%)
  • Immune system (20.93%)

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

Barbara Ensoli mainly investigates Immunology, Virology, Immune system, Antibody and Virus. Barbara Ensoli combines subjects such as Cancer research and Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with her study of Immunology. She has researched Virology in several fields, including Immunization and Major histocompatibility complex.

The various areas that Barbara Ensoli examines in her Immune system study include HIV Antigens, Antigen and Cell biology. She focuses mostly in the field of Antibody, narrowing it down to matters related to Integrin and, in some cases, Flow cytometry, Proinflammatory cytokine and Endothelial stem cell. Her study on Viral entry is often connected to Helix as part of broader study in Virus.

Between 2009 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Global and regional molecular epidemiology of HIV-1, 1990–2015: a systematic review, global survey, and trend analysis (86 citations)
  • Therapeutic Immunization with HIV-1 Tat Reduces Immune Activation and Loss of Regulatory T-Cells and Improves Immune Function in Subjects on HAART (80 citations)
  • Approaches to preventative and therapeutic HIV vaccines. (45 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Virus

Barbara Ensoli spends much of her time researching Immunology, Virology, Immune system, Antibody and Vaccination. Her Immunology research integrates issues from Cancer research, Matrix metalloproteinase and Saquinavir. Barbara Ensoli specializes in Virology, namely Virus.

Her Immune system research includes themes of Cytotoxic T cell and Antigen. Her work carried out in the field of Antibody brings together such families of science as Regimen, Viral vector and AIDS Vaccines. The concepts of her Vaccination study are interwoven with issues in Viral load and Immunogenicity.
