Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Howard E. Ganther mostly deals with Biochemistry, Selenium, Methylselenocysteine, Apoptosis and Programmed cell death. Biochemistry is closely attributed to In vivo in his study. The concepts of his Selenium study are interwoven with issues in Mercury, Methylmercury, Selenium in biology and Toxicity.

His study in Glutathione reductase, GPX6 and GPX4 falls within the category of Glutathione peroxidase. Howard E. Ganther interconnects GPX1 and GPX5 in the investigation of issues within Glutathione reductase. His research combines Peroxidase and GPX3.

His most cited work include:

  • Selenium: Biochemical Role as a Component of Glutathione Peroxidase (5859 citations)
  • Selenium metabolism, selenoproteins and mechanisms of cancer prevention: complexities with thioredoxin reductase (589 citations)
  • Selenium: Relation to Decreased Toxicity of Methylmercury Added to Diets Containing Tuna (515 citations)

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

Howard E. Ganther mainly focuses on Selenium, Biochemistry, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Glutathione peroxidase. His work deals with themes such as Mammary tumor, Toxicity, Anticarcinogen and Metabolism, which intersect with Selenium. His work investigates the relationship between Biochemistry and topics such as In vivo that intersect with problems in In vitro and Size-exclusion chromatography.

His study in the fields of Kidney and Angiogenesis under the domain of Internal medicine overlaps with other disciplines such as Vascular endothelial growth factor. His Glutathione peroxidase research includes themes of Peroxidase, Selenocysteine and Bioavailability. GPX1 and GPX6 is closely connected to GPX4 in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Glutathione reductase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Selenium (59.21%)
  • Biochemistry (47.37%)
  • Internal medicine (26.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2009)?

  • Cell growth (17.11%)
  • Biochemistry (47.37%)
  • Apoptosis (11.84%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell growth, Biochemistry, Apoptosis, Cell biology and Cell cycle. His research in Cell growth intersects with topics in Carcinogenesis and Cell culture. His studies in Biochemistry integrate themes in fields like Selenium and Selenium Compound.

His work carried out in the field of Apoptosis brings together such families of science as Molecular biology, In vitro and In vivo. The various areas that Howard E. Ganther examines in his Molecular biology study include Gene expression, Growth inhibition, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. Howard E. Ganther has included themes like Cyclin-dependent kinase and Apoptotic DNA fragmentation in his Cell biology study.

Between 1997 and 2009, his most popular works were:

  • Selenium metabolism, selenoproteins and mechanisms of cancer prevention: complexities with thioredoxin reductase (589 citations)
  • In Vitro and in Vivo Studies of Methylseleninic Acid: Evidence That a Monomethylated Selenium Metabolite Is Critical for Cancer Chemoprevention (368 citations)
  • Caspases as Key Executors of Methyl Selenium-induced Apoptosis (Anoikis) of DU-145 Prostate Cancer Cells (229 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Programmed cell death, Apoptosis, Methylselenocysteine, Biochemistry and Signal transduction are his primary areas of study. His Programmed cell death research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Internal medicine, Matrix metalloproteinase, Umbilical vein and Cell biology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cancer, Endocrinology, Angiogenesis and In vivo in addition to Apoptosis.

Howard E. Ganther combines subjects such as In vitro, Metabolite, Selenium Compound, Thioredoxin reductase and Anticarcinogen with his study of Methylselenocysteine. Howard E. Ganther undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Biochemistry and Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial in his work. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Carcinogenesis, Microarray analysis techniques and Selenium.
