Jozef Van Damme

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Cytokine
• Gene
• Immune system

Jozef Van Damme spends much of his time researching Immunology, Chemokine, Cell biology, Chemotaxis and Cytokine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Demyelinating disease, Molecular biology and Interleukin 8. His work deals with themes such as Platelet factor 4, Endocrinology and CXC chemokine receptors, which intersect with Interleukin 8.

His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as CX3CL1, CXCL2 and Neutrophil extravasation. His study with Chemotaxis involves better knowledge in Receptor. His research investigates the connection between Cytokine and topics such as Inflammation that intersect with issues in Cell migration, Cancer cell and Metastasis.

His most cited work include:

• Functional characterization of human receptors for short chain fatty acids and their role in polymorphonuclear cell activation. (968 citations)
• Neutrophil gelatinase B potentiates interleukin-8 tenfold by aminoterminal processing, whereas it degrades CTAP-III, PF-4, and GRO-α and leaves RANTES and MCP-2 intact (590 citations)
• The CC chemokine CCL20 and its receptor CCR6. (570 citations)

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

Immunology, Chemokine, Chemotaxis, Cell biology and Molecular biology are his primary areas of study. In his research, Endothelial stem cell is intimately related to Angiogenesis, which falls under the overarching field of Chemokine. His work on Chemotaxis is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Monocyte.

His Cell biology research includes elements of Receptor, CXCL2, CCL13 and CCR1. The various areas that Jozef Van Damme examines in his Molecular biology study include Beta, Biochemistry, Messenger RNA and Gelatinase. His work in CXC chemokine receptors tackles topics such as CXCR3 which are related to areas like CXCL16, CX3CL1 and CXCL11.

He most often published in these fields:

• Immunology (38.57%)
• Chemokine (36.43%)
• Chemotaxis (25.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2017)?

• Chemokine (36.43%)
• Immunology (38.57%)
• Cell biology (22.86%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Chemokine, Immunology, Cell biology, Angiogenesis and Chemotaxis. Jozef Van Damme has researched Chemokine in several fields, including Monocyte chemotaxis and Signal transduction. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Blood–brain barrier and Immunology.

The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as CXCL2, Chemokine receptor, CCR1, Inflammation and Agonist. His Angiogenesis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Platelet factor 4, Platelet and Molecular biology. Jozef Van Damme has included themes like Effector, Innate immune system and Monocyte in his Chemotaxis study.

Between 2009 and 2017, his most popular works were:

• CXCR3 ligands in disease and therapy. (162 citations)
• The role of the CXC chemokines platelet factor-4 (CXCL4/PF-4) and its variant (CXCL4L1/PF-4var) in inflammation, angiogenesis and cancer (99 citations)
• Cytokine profiles in aqueous humor of patients with different clinical entities of endogenous uveitis. (92 citations)

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

• Gene
• Cytokine
• Immune system

Jozef Van Damme focuses on Immunology, Chemokine, Cytokine, CXCR3 and Cell biology. His Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Stromal cell and Neovascularization. His Chemotaxis research extends to the thematically linked field of Chemokine.

The concepts of his Cytokine study are interwoven with issues in Endothelial stem cell, Myofibroblast, Pathology, CD31 and Serum amyloid A. His CXCR3 research also works with subjects such as

• Metastasis which is related to area like CXC chemokine receptors, Angiogenesis, Inflammation and Platelet factor 4,
• CX3CL1, C-C chemokine receptor type 7 and Chemokine receptor CCR5 most often made with reference to CXCL16. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from CXCL2 and CCR1.
