Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Metallothionein, Nitric oxide and Cell biology. His study involves Nitric oxide synthase, Intracellular, Antioxidant, Cytochrome and Mitochondrion, a branch of Biochemistry. His Molecular biology research includes themes of Cytokine, Cationic liposome, Transfection, STAT1 and In vivo.

The Metallothionein study combines topics in areas such as Cytotoxic T cell and Null cell. Bruce R. Pitt works mostly in the field of Nitric oxide, limiting it down to concerns involving Endothelium and, occasionally, Homeostasis. His study on Cell biology also encompasses disciplines like

  • Endothelial stem cell, which have a strong connection to Cell growth, Intimal hyperplasia and Genetic enhancement,
  • Genetic transfer and related Immunology.

His most cited work include:

  • Cytochrome c/cardiolipin relations in mitochondria: a kiss of death (316 citations)
  • Enhanced Sensitivity to Oxidative Stress in Cultured Embryonic Cells from Transgenic Mice Deficient in Metallothionein I and II Genes (283 citations)
  • Recombinant human superoxide dismutase (h-SOD) fails to improve recovery of ventricular function in patients undergoing coronary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction. (238 citations)

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

Bruce R. Pitt focuses on Biochemistry, Internal medicine, Molecular biology, Nitric oxide and Cell biology. His study in Biochemistry concentrates on Metallothionein, Intracellular, Apoptosis, Endothelial stem cell and Cardiolipin. His Endothelial stem cell research includes themes of Blood vessel and Genetic transfer.

Bruce R. Pitt interconnects Anesthesia, Endocrinology and Cardiology in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine. His studies in Molecular biology integrate themes in fields like Gene expression, Gene, Transfection and In vivo. His research investigates the connection between Nitric oxide and topics such as Endothelium that intersect with issues in Genetic enhancement and Pharmacology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (26.57%)
  • Internal medicine (21.26%)
  • Molecular biology (19.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2021)?

  • Lung injury (14.01%)
  • Biochemistry (26.57%)
  • Immunology (14.01%)

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

His main research concerns Lung injury, Biochemistry, Immunology, Apoptosis and Cardiolipin. His Lung injury research incorporates themes from Inflammation, Cancer research, Sepsis and Pathology. His Biochemistry research incorporates elements of Endothelium and Pharmacology.

His Apoptosis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lipopolysaccharide, Phosphatidylserine and Pulmonary artery. He has included themes like Lipid peroxidation, Oxidative phosphorylation, Cytochrome c and Programmed cell death in his Cardiolipin study. His Metallothionein research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Molecular biology and Respiratory epithelium.

Between 2006 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Cytochrome c/cardiolipin relations in mitochondria: a kiss of death (316 citations)
  • A mitochondrial pathway for biosynthesis of lipid mediators (102 citations)
  • Mitochondrial targeting of electron scavenging antioxidants: Regulation of selective oxidation vs random chain reactions. (94 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Cardiolipin, Mitochondrion, Cytochrome c and Oxidative phosphorylation. His work on Biochemistry is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Lung injury. His work deals with themes such as Lipid peroxidation, Apoptosis and Phosphatidylserine, which intersect with Cardiolipin.

His Mitochondrion research integrates issues from Peroxidase, Hydrogen peroxide, Cytochrome, Hemeprotein and Programmed cell death. The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular biology and Cytochrome c peroxidase in addition to Hemeprotein. Bruce R. Pitt has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Endothelial stem cell and Signal transduction.
