Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Immune system

Immunology, Internal medicine, Myelin, Pathology and Multiple sclerosis are his primary areas of study. His research on Immunology frequently links to adjacent areas such as Receptor. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Surgery.

Klaus V. Toyka interconnects Schwann cell, Cell biology and Null allele in the investigation of issues within Myelin. His Pathology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peripheral neuropathy and Ischemia. His Multiple sclerosis study also includes fields such as

  • Pharmacology and Nerve injury most often made with reference to Tumor necrosis factor alpha,
  • Methylprednisolone which is related to area like Interleukin 2.

His most cited work include:

  • Inactivation of the survival motor neuron gene, a candidate gene for human spinal muscular atrophy, leads to massive cell death in early mouse embryos (549 citations)
  • Therapeutic efficacy of IL-17 neutralization in murine experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. (378 citations)
  • CNTF is a major protective factor in demyelinating CNS disease: A neurotrophic cytokine as modulator in neuroinflammation (356 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Immunology, Pathology, Internal medicine, Myelin and Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. His research related to Immune system, T cell, Antibody, Antigen and Adoptive cell transfer might be considered part of Immunology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Inflammation, Multiple sclerosis and Peripheral nervous system.

In his study, Receptor is strongly linked to Endocrinology, which falls under the umbrella field of Internal medicine. Within one scientific family, Klaus V. Toyka focuses on topics pertaining to Cell biology under Myelin, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Central nervous system and Neuroscience. His Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis study combines topics in areas such as Encephalomyelitis, Myelin basic protein and Microglia.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (43.70%)
  • Pathology (20.82%)
  • Internal medicine (18.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (18.48%)
  • Immunology (43.70%)
  • Neuroscience (8.50%)

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

Klaus V. Toyka mostly deals with Internal medicine, Immunology, Neuroscience, Pathology and Endocrinology. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gastroenterology and Surgery. Klaus V. Toyka has included themes like Cytotoxic T cell and Central nervous system in his Immunology study.

His Neuroscience research includes themes of Amphiphysin and Neurotransmission. Klaus V. Toyka focuses mostly in the field of Pathology, narrowing it down to matters related to Inflammation and, in some cases, Peripheral diabetic neuropathy. His work on Diabetes mellitus, Peripheral neuropathy, Metabolic syndrome and Gastrocnemius muscle as part of general Endocrinology study is frequently linked to Abnormal involuntary movement, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2007 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Axonal prion protein is required for peripheral myelin maintenance (287 citations)
  • Intravenous immunoglobulin for myasthenia gravis (198 citations)
  • Stiff person syndrome-associated autoantibodies to amphiphysin mediate reduced GABAergic inhibition (142 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Immune system

Klaus V. Toyka focuses on Neuroscience, Internal medicine, Immunology, Pathology and Myasthenia gravis. His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Endocytic cycle and Amphiphysin. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Endocrinology, Virus antigen and Plasmapheresis.

His Immunology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Cytotoxic T cell. His work on Skin biopsy, Biopsy, Sural nerve and Vasculitic neuropathy is typically connected to Diagnostic methods as part of general Pathology study, connecting several disciplines of science. His research integrates issues of Neuromuscular disease, Surgery, Cyclophosphamide, Neuromuscular junction and Neuromuscular transmission in his study of Myasthenia gravis.
