Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Immune system

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Galectin, Cell biology, Galectin-3, Molecular biology and Biochemistry. His Galectin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cell, Cell migration, Cell adhesion, Galectin-1 and Immune system. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Apoptosis, Cell cycle and Cell growth.

His study looks at the relationship between Galectin-3 and topics such as Fibronectin, which overlap with Integrin. His Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Jurkat cells, T cell and Virology. His work in Biochemistry tackles topics such as Immunoglobulin E which are related to areas like Allergic inflammation and Allergy.

His most cited work include:

  • Galectins as modulators of tumour progression (1078 citations)
  • Galectins: a family of animal beta-galactoside-binding lectins. (986 citations)
  • Expression of galectin-3 modulates T-cell growth and apoptosis (637 citations)

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

Fu-Tong Liu mainly investigates Cell biology, Immunology, Galectin, Galectin-3 and Molecular biology. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Apoptosis, Downregulation and upregulation and Cellular differentiation. Galectin is a primary field of his research addressed under Biochemistry.

As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Galectin-3, focusing on Cancer research and, on occasion, Psoriasis. His study in Molecular biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Complementary DNA and Cell culture. His research in Immunoglobulin E intersects with topics in Mast cell, Receptor, Eosinophil and Antigen.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (37.58%)
  • Immunology (31.99%)
  • Galectin (30.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Cell biology (37.58%)
  • Galectin (30.87%)
  • Cancer research (14.77%)

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

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Galectin, Cancer research, Downregulation and upregulation and Galectin-3. Fu-Tong Liu combines subjects such as Autophagy, Knockout mouse and Cellular differentiation with his study of Cell biology. His Galectin research is included under the broader classification of Immunology.

His Cancer research research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Psoriasis, Pathogenesis, Inflammation, Carcinogenesis and Signal transduction. His Downregulation and upregulation research also works with subjects such as

  • Gene knockdown which connect with Transcription factor, Kinase, miR-203, microRNA and Regulation of gene expression,
  • Glucose homeostasis which connect with Immunoprecipitation. His Galectin-3 research integrates issues from Cancer, Cell cycle, Bioinformatics, Transcriptional regulation and Stem cell.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Antibody-dependent SARS coronavirus infection is mediated by antibodies against spike proteins (227 citations)
  • Population structure of Han Chinese in the modern Taiwanese population based on 10,000 participants in the Taiwan Biobank project (86 citations)
  • Complex history of dog ( Canis familiaris ) origins and translocations in the Pacific revealed by ancient mitogenomes (73 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Immune system

Fu-Tong Liu mainly focuses on Cell biology, Galectin, Galectin-3, Gene knockdown and Cancer research. His Organelle study in the realm of Cell biology connects with subjects such as Fluorescence microscope. To a larger extent, Fu-Tong Liu studies Biochemistry with the aim of understanding Galectin.

His studies deal with areas such as Autocrine signalling, Apoptosis, Actin cytoskeleton, Transfection and RHOA as well as Galectin-3. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Lung cancer, Downregulation and upregulation, Signal transduction and Keratinocyte. The Cancer research study combines topics in areas such as Inflammation, Inflammasome, Macrophage and Pathogenesis.
