Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Internal medicine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Immune system, Cell biology, Innate immune system and Molecular biology. As part of his studies on Immunology, Ken J. Ishii often connects relevant subjects like Cytotoxic T cell. His study in Immune system is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Hemozoin and Virology.

His Virology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as RNA, RIG-I and MDA5. The study incorporates disciplines such as Chemokine, Inflammasome, Autophagy and IRF3 in addition to Cell biology. Ken J. Ishii has included themes like Signal transduction and Immunity in his Innate immune system study.

His most cited work include:

  • Differential roles of MDA5 and RIG-I helicases in the recognition of RNA viruses (2867 citations)
  • IPS-1, an adaptor triggering RIG-I- and Mda5-mediated type I interferon induction (2036 citations)
  • Interferon-|[alpha]| induction through Toll-like receptors involves a direct interaction of IRF7 with MyD88 and TRAF6 (846 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Immunology, Immune system, Innate immune system, Cell biology and Adjuvant. His research links Virology with Immunology. His Immune system research incorporates themes from TLR9, CpG Oligodeoxynucleotide, Cytokine and CpG site.

His CpG Oligodeoxynucleotide research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Molecular biology and Cancer research. His work is dedicated to discovering how Innate immune system, Interferon are connected with IRF3 and other disciplines. As part of his studies on Cell biology, Ken J. Ishii often connects relevant areas like DNA.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (42.22%)
  • Immune system (30.12%)
  • Innate immune system (22.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Surgery (15.06%)
  • Immunology (42.22%)
  • Immune system (30.12%)

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

Ken J. Ishii spends much of his time researching Surgery, Immunology, Immune system, Innate immune system and Cell biology. His Immunology research includes themes of Epidermis and Keratinocyte. His Immune system research includes elements of Adjuvant, Cytotoxic T cell and Pathology.

His Innate immune system study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Virus, Messenger RNA and Interferon. His studies deal with areas such as EGTA, Immunopotentiator, Cytokine and Cytosol as well as Cell biology. Ken J. Ishii has researched Immunization in several fields, including Epitope, CpG Oligodeoxynucleotide and Virology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • STING agonists activate latently infected cells and enhance SIV-specific responses ex vivo in naturally SIV controlled cynomolgus macaques. (14 citations)
  • Exposure of an occluded hemagglutinin epitope drives selection of a class of cross-protective influenza antibodies (11 citations)
  • Requirement for memory B-cell activation in protection from heterologous influenza virus reinfection (11 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Internal medicine

Antigen, Immune system, Immunology, Immunization and Antibody are his primary areas of study. In his research on the topic of Immune system, Cytotoxic T cell, CD8 and Peripheral blood mononuclear cell is strongly related with Cytokine. He mostly deals with Innate immune system in his studies of Immunology.

The concepts of his Innate immune system study are interwoven with issues in Interleukin 33, Inflammasome, Neutrophil extracellular traps and Immunity. His research in Immunization intersects with topics in Epitope mapping, Ovalbumin, CpG Oligodeoxynucleotide and Cholera toxin. Ken J. Ishii interconnects Naive B cell, Heterologous, Viral replication and Virology in the investigation of issues within Antibody.
