His Fas receptor research includes elements of Phenotype, Fas ligand, CD8 and Mutation.
His research in Antigen intersects with topics in Autoantibody and Graft-versus-host disease.
His work deals with themes such as Fetus, Reverse transcriptase, Northern blot and Cell biology, which intersect with Molecular biology.
His most cited work include:
- Systemic vasculitis with asthma and eosinophilia: a clinical approach to the Churg-Strauss syndrome (961 citations)
- Complement-dependent Clearance of Apoptotic Cells by Human Macrophages (601 citations)
- C-Reactive Protein Binds to Apoptotic Cells, Protects the Cells from Assembly of the Terminal Complement Components, and Sustains an Antiinflammatory Innate Immune Response (590 citations)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Keith B. Elkon mostly deals with Apoptosis, Immunology, Fas receptor, Autoimmunity and Cancer research.
His study in Apoptosis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Signal transduction, Cell biology and Complement system.
His Immunology and Autoantibody, B cell, Autoimmune disease, Immune system and Adoptive cell transfer investigations all form part of his Immunology research activities.
His Autoantibody study combines topics in areas such as Spleen, Lupus erythematosus and Pathology.
His Lupus erythematosus research includes themes of Systemic lupus erythematosus and Endocrinology.
His research investigates the link between Fas receptor and topics such as Death domain that cross with problems in FADD.
Between 1998 and 2008, his most popular works were:
- C-Reactive Protein Binds to Apoptotic Cells, Protects the Cells from Assembly of the Terminal Complement Components, and Sustains an Antiinflammatory Innate Immune Response (590 citations)
