Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

Immunology, Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein, Multiple sclerosis, Encephalomyelitis and Myelin are his primary areas of study. His study in Immunology concentrates on Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, T cell, Autoimmune disease, B cell and Immunopathology. His Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein research includes elements of Epitope, Autoantibody, Antibody, Antigen and Myelin-associated glycoprotein.

His Multiple sclerosis study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Autoimmunity, Central nervous system, Neuroscience and Pathology. His Encephalomyelitis research includes themes of Lesion and Monoclonal antibody. Christopher Linington works in the field of Myelin, focusing on Oligodendrocyte in particular.

His most cited work include:

  • Understanding pathogenesis and therapy of multiple sclerosis via animal models: 70 years of merits and culprits in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis research. (826 citations)
  • Multiple sclerosis and chronic autoimmune encephalomyelitis: a comparative quantitative study of axonal injury in active, inactive, and remyelinated lesions. (797 citations)
  • Cellular immune reactivity within the CNS (703 citations)

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

Christopher Linington mostly deals with Immunology, Multiple sclerosis, Myelin, Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. Encephalomyelitis, Antibody, T cell, Autoantibody and Antigen are among the areas of Immunology where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. Christopher Linington combines subjects such as Central nervous system, Neuroscience, Pathology, Remyelination and Autoimmunity with his study of Multiple sclerosis.

His work investigates the relationship between Myelin and topics such as Glycoprotein that intersect with problems in Peripheral nervous system. His Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Virology, B cell, Cell biology, Epitope and Myelin-associated glycoprotein. His research integrates issues of Butyrophilin and Major histocompatibility complex, MHC class II in his study of Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (68.95%)
  • Multiple sclerosis (44.29%)
  • Myelin (40.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Multiple sclerosis (44.29%)
  • Immunology (68.95%)
  • Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (29.68%)

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

His main research concerns Multiple sclerosis, Immunology, Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and Autoantibody. His Multiple sclerosis research incorporates elements of Myelin, Remyelination, Central nervous system, Neuroscience and Pathology. The Myelin study combines topics in areas such as White matter and Zika virus.

Christopher Linington works mostly in the field of Immunology, limiting it down to concerns involving Cell culture and, occasionally, Tropism. His studies deal with areas such as Encephalomyelitis, Adoptive cell transfer, Hypoxia and Classical complement pathway as well as Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. His work deals with themes such as Epitope, T cell, MHC class II and B cell, which intersect with Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • MHC class II–dependent B cell APC function is required for induction of CNS autoimmunity independent of myelin-specific antibodies (228 citations)
  • IL-33 attenuates EAE by suppressing IL-17 and IFN-γ production and inducing alternatively activated macrophages. (219 citations)
  • Neurofascin as a target for autoantibodies in peripheral neuropathies (163 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Antibody

His primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Multiple sclerosis, Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and Antibody. Christopher Linington has researched Multiple sclerosis in several fields, including Remyelination and Central nervous system, Neuroscience. The Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis study combines topics in areas such as Interleukin, Cytokine and Encephalomyelitis.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Encephalomyelitis, Hypoxia is strongly linked to Neuroinflammation. His Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein research is multidisciplinary, relying on both MHC class II and B cell. His Antibody research integrates issues from Myelin and Tropism, Tissue tropism.
