Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

Jerrold R. Turner spends much of his time researching Tight junction, Cell biology, Barrier function, Myosin light-chain kinase and Intestinal mucosa. His Tight junction research incorporates themes from Adherens junction, Intracellular, Paracellular transport and Phosphorylation. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Epithelium, Cell junction and Microfilament.

Jerrold R. Turner has included themes like Molecular biology, Caco-2, Pharmacology and Microbiology in his Barrier function study. In his study, In vivo is strongly linked to Signal transduction, which falls under the umbrella field of Myosin light-chain kinase. The various areas that he examines in his Intestinal mucosa study include Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Immune system, Immunology, Pathogenesis and Intestinal epithelium.

His most cited work include:

  • Intestinal mucosal barrier function in health and disease. (1864 citations)
  • Interferon-γ and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Synergize to Induce Intestinal Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction by Up-Regulating Myosin Light Chain Kinase Expression (496 citations)
  • Physiological regulation of epithelial tight junctions is associated with myosin light-chain phosphorylation. (438 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Tight junction, Myosin light-chain kinase, Internal medicine and Immunology. His Cell biology course of study focuses on Intestinal mucosa and Microbiology. His work deals with themes such as Barrier function, Biophysics and Paracellular transport, which intersect with Tight junction.

His research on Myosin and Biochemistry is centered around Myosin light-chain kinase. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Pathology. His Immunology research incorporates elements of Disease and Inflammatory bowel disease.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (47.69%)
  • Tight junction (36.26%)
  • Myosin light-chain kinase (18.68%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Tight junction (36.26%)
  • Internal medicine (17.36%)

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

Jerrold R. Turner mainly investigates Cell biology, Tight junction, Internal medicine, Paracellular transport and Claudin. Jerrold R. Turner is studying Myosin light-chain kinase, which is a component of Cell biology. His primary area of study in Tight junction is in the field of Occludin.

The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. He has researched Paracellular transport in several fields, including Transcellular and Epithelial Damage. His Claudin study combines topics in areas such as Downregulation and upregulation and Intestinal permeability.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The intestinal epithelial barrier: a therapeutic target? (281 citations)
  • The intestinal epithelial barrier: a therapeutic target? (281 citations)
  • Cell Biology of Tight Junction Barrier Regulation and Mucosal Disease (129 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Tight junction, Occludin, Paracellular transport and Intestinal mucosa. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Epithelium and Cell polarity. His Tight junction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Barrier function, Adherens junction, Immunity and Intestinal permeability.

His Paracellular transport study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Disease, Immune system and Epithelial Damage. His studies deal with areas such as Endocrinology and Intestinal epithelium as well as Intestinal mucosa. The Myosin light-chain kinase study which covers Tumor necrosis factor alpha that intersects with Phosphorylation, Intracellular and Cell adhesion.
