Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Cytokine

Klaus Pfeffer mainly investigates Immunology, Cell biology, Molecular biology, T cell and Immune system. His research on Immunology often connects related topics like Receptor. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Cell type and Cellular differentiation.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Molecular biology, Interleukin 2 and Lamina propria is strongly linked to CD8. His T cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cytotoxic T cell, T lymphocyte and Cytokine. His work carried out in the field of Immune system brings together such families of science as Transcription factor, Intestinal mucosa and Pathogenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Metabolites produced by commensal bacteria promote peripheral regulatory T-cell generation (1958 citations)
  • Mice deficient for the 55 kd tumor necrosis factor receptor are resistant to endotoxic shock, yet succumb to L. monocytogenes infection. (1605 citations)
  • Tumor necrosis factor-α is required in the protective immune response against mycobacterium tuberculosis in mice (1442 citations)

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

His main research concerns Immunology, Cell biology, Tumor necrosis factor alpha, Immune system and Molecular biology. His study looks at the intersection of Immunology and topics like Receptor with Endocrinology. His study in the field of Signal transduction, Liver regeneration and GTPase also crosses realms of Guanylate-binding protein.

His work in Tumor necrosis factor alpha addresses subjects such as Pathology, which are connected to disciplines such as Peritonitis. His research investigates the connection between Molecular biology and topics such as Germinal center that intersect with issues in Follicular dendritic cells. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cytotoxic T cell and T lymphocyte.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (36.71%)
  • Cell biology (28.32%)
  • Tumor necrosis factor alpha (19.23%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Cell biology (28.32%)
  • Immune system (17.83%)
  • Microbiology (12.59%)

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

Klaus Pfeffer mainly focuses on Cell biology, Immune system, Microbiology, Immunology and Tumor necrosis factor alpha. His study explores the link between Cell biology and topics such as Caspase-11 that cross with problems in Membrane glycoproteins, Legionella pneumophila, Extracellular, Lipopolysaccharide and Bacterial outer membrane. His studies deal with areas such as Progenitor cell and Cytotoxic T cell as well as Immune system.

His Microbiology research includes themes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacteria, Enterobacter cloacae and Outbreak. His study connects Respiratory tract and Immunology. His Tumor necrosis factor alpha study incorporates themes from Receptor, Cancer research, Liver cell and Programmed cell death.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Severe COVID-19 Is Marked by a Dysregulated Myeloid Cell Compartment. (226 citations)
  • Guanylate-binding proteins promote activation of the AIM2 inflammasome during infection with Francisella novicida (209 citations)
  • Guanylate binding proteins promote caspase-11-dependent pyroptosis in response to cytoplasmic LPS (197 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Cytokine

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Immune system, Immunology, STAT protein and Virology. His research integrates issues of Inflammasome, Caspase-11 and DNA-binding protein in his study of Cell biology. His Immune system research integrates issues from Megakaryocyte, RNA-Seq, DNA methylation, Mural cell and Reticular cell.

His Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Transcriptome and breakpoint cluster region. His study on 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak and Vesicular stomatitis virus is often connected to Pandemic, Genetic structure and Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 as part of broader study in Virology. The STAT3 study combines topics in areas such as Molecular biology and PIM1.
