Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

Gerald I. Byrne mainly investigates Immunology, Microbiology, Interferon gamma, Chlamydia and Chlamydophila pneumoniae. His Chlamydia muridarum study, which is part of a larger body of work in Immunology, is frequently linked to Obligate and Peritoneal cavity, bridging the gap between disciplines. The various areas that Gerald I. Byrne examines in his Microbiology study include Cell culture, Foam cell, Lipopolysaccharide and Chlamydiae.

Gerald I. Byrne interconnects Tryptophan, Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, Molecular biology and Intracellular in the investigation of issues within Interferon gamma. His studies in Chlamydia integrate themes in fields like Pathogenesis, Inflammation, Intracellular pathogen, Disease and Programmed cell death. As part of one scientific family, Gerald I. Byrne deals mainly with the area of Chlamydophila pneumoniae, narrowing it down to issues related to the Lipoprotein, and often Atheroma.

His most cited work include:

  • Persistent chlamydiae: from cell culture to a paradigm for chlamydial pathogenesis. (518 citations)
  • Morphologic and antigenic characterization of interferon gamma-mediated persistent Chlamydia trachomatis infection in vitro. (398 citations)
  • Induction of tryptophan catabolism is the mechanism for gamma-interferon-mediated inhibition of intracellular Chlamydia psittaci replication in T24 cells. (320 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Immunology, Microbiology, Chlamydia trachomatis, Chlamydia and Interferon gamma. His work on Pathogenesis, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Serology and Immune system as part of general Immunology study is frequently linked to Macular degeneration, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cell culture, Foam cell, Macrophage, Chlamydia psittaci and Virulence in addition to Microbiology.

In general Chlamydia trachomatis study, his work on Chlamydiaceae, Chlamydiae and Chlamydiales often relates to the realm of Tubal factor infertility, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Gerald I. Byrne studied Chlamydia and Risk factor that intersect with Epidemiology. His Interferon gamma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Molecular biology, Interferon, Intracellular and Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (37.14%)
  • Microbiology (36.19%)
  • Chlamydia trachomatis (30.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2020)?

  • Chlamydia (28.57%)
  • Microbiology (36.19%)
  • Chlamydia trachomatis (30.48%)

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

His main research concerns Chlamydia, Microbiology, Chlamydia trachomatis, Virology and Pathogen. His Chlamydia study focuses mostly on Chlamydiaceae and Chlamydiales. His Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Transcription, Macrophage, Genus Chlamydia and Chlamydia psittaci.

His Chlamydia psittaci study introduces a deeper knowledge of Immunology. His research in Chlamydia trachomatis intersects with topics in Serotype, Biochemistry, Family medicine and Sterol O-acyltransferase. His Pathogen research includes themes of Quantitative trait locus, Innate immune system, Disease and Virulence.

Between 2005 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Chlamydia pneumoniae-induced macrophage foam cell formation is mediated by toll-like receptor 2 (122 citations)
  • Summary: The natural history and immunobiology of Chlamydia trachomatis genital infection and implications for Chlamydia control. (87 citations)
  • Global transcriptional upregulation in the absence of increased translation in Chlamydia during IFNγ-mediated host cell tryptophan starvation (82 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

Gerald I. Byrne mostly deals with Microbiology, Chlamydia, Chlamydia trachomatis, Serotype and Chlamydiaceae. His studies deal with areas such as Transcription, Downregulation and upregulation and Gene as well as Microbiology. Gerald I. Byrne integrates Chlamydia with Research needs in his study.

The concepts of his Chlamydia trachomatis study are interwoven with issues in Natural history and Family medicine. The Serotype study combines topics in areas such as Plasmid, Pathogen, Cell culture, Disease and Virulence. His Chlamydiaceae study incorporates themes from Apoptosis, Programmed cell death, Intracellular, Cell biology and Chlamydiales.
