Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Antibody
  • Gene
  • Immune system

Her primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Molecular biology, Antibody, Antigen and Immunotoxin. Her Immunology research includes themes of Internal medicine, Transplantation and Stem cell. Ellen S. Vitetta interconnects T cell, Lymphokine, Immunoglobulin M, Surface Immunoglobulin and Cytotoxic T cell in the investigation of issues within Molecular biology.

Her work carried out in the field of Antibody brings together such families of science as Receptor and Spleen. In her research on the topic of Antigen, B-1 cell is strongly related with B cell. Her Immunotoxin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lymphoma, Pathology, Cancer research and Ricin.

Her most cited work include:

  • Regulation of antibody isotype secretion by subsets of antigen-specific helper T cells. (799 citations)
  • Redesigning nature's poisons to create anti-tumor reagents. (505 citations)
  • HER-2 gene amplification can be acquired as breast cancer progresses. (473 citations)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Molecular biology, Immunology, Antibody, Antigen and Immunotoxin. Ellen S. Vitetta has researched Molecular biology in several fields, including B-1 cell, T cell, B cell, Immunoglobulin D and Cytotoxic T cell. Her studies examine the connections between Immunology and genetics, as well as such issues in Transplantation, with regards to Stem cell.

Her study in Antibody is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell culture and Virology. The Antigen study combines topics in areas such as Immunoprecipitation, Spleen, Cell and CD40. In her research, Recombinant DNA is intimately related to Ricin, which falls under the overarching field of Immunotoxin.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (41.47%)
  • Immunology (35.71%)
  • Antibody (32.94%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2002-2021)?

  • Immunology (35.71%)
  • Antibody (32.94%)
  • Monoclonal antibody (17.06%)

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

Ellen S. Vitetta focuses on Immunology, Antibody, Monoclonal antibody, Immunotoxin and Ricin. Her Immunology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Stem cell, Transplantation and Graft-versus-host disease. Her studies in Antibody integrate themes in fields like Cancer research, In vitro and Lethal dose.

Her Monoclonal antibody research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Epitope, Molecular biology, Cell culture and In vivo. Her Molecular biology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as B cell. Her Immunotoxin research integrates issues from Chemotherapy, Antigen, Cytotoxic T cell, Leukemia and Pharmacology.

Between 2002 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • HER-2 gene amplification can be acquired as breast cancer progresses. (473 citations)
  • Thermal ablation of tumor cells with antibody-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (312 citations)
  • Adoptive immunotherapy with allodepleted donor T-cells improves immune reconstitution after haploidentical stem cell transplantation (225 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Antibody
  • Immune system

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Antibody, Monoclonal antibody, Internal medicine and Immunotherapy. Her Immunology study incorporates themes from In vivo and Graft-versus-host disease, Transplantation. Ellen S. Vitetta combines subjects such as Clinical trial, Recombinant DNA, Ricin and Virology with her study of Antibody.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Epitope, Cell culture, In vitro and Immunoglobulin G in addition to Monoclonal antibody. The concepts of her Immunotoxin study are interwoven with issues in Cancer research and Refractory. Her Molecular biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cancer cell and B cell.
