Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Stem cell, Progenitor cell, Pathology, Molecular biology and Hepatitis B virus. His Stem cell study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Embryonic stem cell, Cancer research, Cellular differentiation and Amniotic epithelial cells. His study in Embryonic stem cell is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endocrinology and Internal medicine.

His Progenitor cell research includes themes of Haematopoiesis and Transplantation. His Hepatitis B virus study is associated with Virology. His HBsAg study combines topics in areas such as Liver disease and Hepatitis.

His most cited work include:

  • Integration of hepatitis B virus DNA into the genome of liver cells in chronic liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma. Studies in percutaneous liver biopsies and post-mortem tissue specimens. (613 citations)
  • HGF, SDF-1, and MMP-9 are involved in stress-induced human CD34+ stem cell recruitment to the liver. (569 citations)
  • BMP-4 is required for hepatic specification of mouse embryonic stem cell–derived definitive endoderm (380 citations)

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

David A. Shafritz spends much of his time researching Molecular biology, Virology, Hepatitis B virus, Progenitor cell and Internal medicine. His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Gene expression, Cellular differentiation, RNA, Complementary DNA and Messenger RNA. His work deals with themes such as Antibody and DNA, which intersect with Virology.

His Hepatitis B virus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Liver disease, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Haematopoiesis, Liver regeneration, Transplantation and Pathology in addition to Progenitor cell. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Cell growth.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (38.33%)
  • Virology (25.83%)
  • Hepatitis B virus (25.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2020)?

  • Progenitor cell (22.50%)
  • Stem cell (17.50%)
  • Pathology (15.83%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Progenitor cell, Stem cell, Pathology, Cancer research and Internal medicine. He has researched Progenitor cell in several fields, including Molecular biology, Immunology, Transplantation and Hepatic stellate cell. His Molecular biology research includes elements of Complementary DNA and Liver injury.

The HBeAg, Hepatitis, HBsAg and Hepatitis B virus research he does as part of his general Immunology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Liver cytology, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Stem cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Embryonic stem cell, Somatic cell, Cellular differentiation and Liver regeneration. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Endocrinology in his study.

Between 2001 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • HGF, SDF-1, and MMP-9 are involved in stress-induced human CD34+ stem cell recruitment to the liver. (569 citations)
  • BMP-4 is required for hepatic specification of mouse embryonic stem cell–derived definitive endoderm (380 citations)
  • Analysis of Liver Disease, Nuclear HBcAg, Viral Replication, and Hepatitis B Virus DNA in Liver and Serum of HBcAg Vs. Anti‐HBe Positive Carriers of Hepatitis B Virus (354 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Stem cell, Progenitor cell, Immunology, Liver cytology and Haematopoiesis. His studies deal with areas such as Embryonic stem cell, Cancer research and Liver regeneration as well as Stem cell. His work carried out in the field of Progenitor cell brings together such families of science as Transplantation and Pathology.

Immunology is often connected to Virology in his work. His Haematopoiesis research focuses on CD34 and how it connects with Hematopoietic stem cell, Hepatocyte growth factor, Homing and Stem cell factor. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Internal medicine and Endocrinology.
