Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Immunology, Enzyme, Biochemistry and Glucocerebrosidase. His Internal medicine research integrates issues from Gastroenterology and Endocrinology. His Enzyme research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gastrointestinal tract, Moiety and Macrophage.

Johannes M. F. G. Aerts has included themes like Molecular biology and Function in his Biochemistry study. His research in Glucocerebrosidase intersects with topics in Spleen, Substrate reduction therapy, Pathophysiology and Miglustat. Johannes M. F. G. Aerts has researched Fabry disease in several fields, including Renal function and Enzyme replacement therapy.

His most cited work include:

  • Marked elevation of plasma chitotriosidase activity. A novel hallmark of Gaucher disease. (749 citations)
  • Novel oral treatment of Gaucher's disease with N-butyldeoxynojirimycin (OGT 918) to decrease substrate biosynthesis (640 citations)
  • Elevated globotriaosylsphingosine is a hallmark of Fabry disease. (480 citations)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Biochemistry, Glucocerebrosidase, Endocrinology and Enzyme. Internal medicine is closely attributed to Gastroenterology in his study. His research in Glucocerebrosidase focuses on subjects like Immunology, which are connected to Macrophage.

His study in Endocrinology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Lysosomal storage disease and Iminosugar. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Stereochemistry and Recombinant DNA. In his research, Antibody is intimately related to Fabry disease, which falls under the overarching field of Enzyme replacement therapy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (28.95%)
  • Biochemistry (28.51%)
  • Glucocerebrosidase (22.37%)

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

  • Biochemistry (28.51%)
  • Enzyme (19.96%)
  • Stereochemistry (12.28%)

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

Johannes M. F. G. Aerts mostly deals with Biochemistry, Enzyme, Stereochemistry, Glucocerebrosidase and Fabry disease. His research in Enzyme tackles topics such as Glycolipid which are related to areas like Cytosol and Sphingolipid. Johannes M. F. G. Aerts interconnects Cyclophellitol, Covalent bond, Aziridine and Glycoside hydrolase in the investigation of issues within Stereochemistry.

The various areas that he examines in his Glucocerebrosidase study include Endocrinology, Endogeny, Cholesterol and Lysosome. His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Receptor, Stratum corneum and Epidermis. Fabry disease is a subfield of Internal medicine that Johannes M. F. G. Aerts investigates.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Lysosomal glycosphingolipid catabolism by acid ceramidase: formation of glycosphingoid bases during deficiency of glycosidases. (72 citations)
  • Activity-based probes for functional interrogation of retaining [beta]-glucuronidases (41 citations)
  • Impact of obesity on taste receptor expression in extra-oral tissues: emphasis on hypothalamus and brainstem. (37 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

Johannes M. F. G. Aerts mainly investigates Biochemistry, Glucocerebrosidase, Glucosylceramidase, Enzyme and Lysosome. Biochemistry is closely attributed to Assimilation in his work. His studies deal with areas such as Cell, In vitro, Phenotype, Glycosphingolipid and Metabolism as well as Glucocerebrosidase.

His Glucosylceramidase course of study focuses on Activity-based proteomics and In vivo and Conduritol B-epoxide. His work on Hydrolase as part of general Enzyme research is often related to Heparanase, thus linking different fields of science. His Galactocerebrosidase study spans across into areas like Endocrinology and Internal medicine.
