- Antigen
Fidel Zavala mainly investigates Virology, Antigen, Epitope, Circumsporozoite protein and Cytotoxic T cell.
His Virology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Plasmodium falciparum, Plasmodium, Malaria, Plasmodium yoelii and Antibody.
His Antigen research is included under the broader classification of Immunology.
His studies deal with areas such as Molecular biology, Protein primary structure and Malaria vaccine as well as Epitope.
Fidel Zavala combines subjects such as Cytolysis and Plasmodium berghei with his study of Circumsporozoite protein.
His work deals with themes such as T cell and CD8, which intersect with Cytotoxic T cell.
His most cited work include:
- In Vivo Depletion of CD11c+ Dendritic Cells Abrogates Priming of CD8+ T Cells by Exogenous Cell-Associated Antigens (1555 citations)
- Cloned cytotoxic T cells recognize an epitope in the circumsporozoite protein and protect against malaria (441 citations)
- Quantification of antigen specific CD8+ T cells using an ELISPOT assay (361 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Fidel Zavala focuses on Virology, Immunology, Circumsporozoite protein, Antigen and Epitope.
The Virology study combines topics in areas such as Plasmodium falciparum, Malaria, Immune system and Antibody, Monoclonal antibody.
As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Immunology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Cytotoxic T cell, and often CD8 and T cell.
His research integrates issues of Immunogenicity, Adjuvant, Malaria vaccine, In vivo and Plasmodium berghei in his study of Circumsporozoite protein.
His Antigen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Immunoradiometric assay and Protozoa.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular biology, Peptide, Recombinant DNA and Virus in addition to Epitope.
