Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Cytokine

Kurt Blaser mostly deals with Immunology, T cell, Immunoglobulin E, IL-2 receptor and Cytokine. As a part of the same scientific study, Kurt Blaser usually deals with the Immunology, concentrating on Cytotoxic T cell and frequently concerns with Superantigen. His T cell research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular biology and Interleukin 4.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cellular immunity, Allergen, Allergy and Immunotherapy. His IL-2 receptor research includes elements of Acquired immune system, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Interleukin 10. In his study, Clone and Immunophenotyping is strongly linked to Lymphocyte, which falls under the umbrella field of Cytokine.

His most cited work include:

  • Immune Responses in Healthy and Allergic Individuals Are Characterized by a Fine Balance between Allergen-specific T Regulatory 1 and T Helper 2 Cells (908 citations)
  • Role of interleukin 10 in specific immunotherapy. (878 citations)
  • IL-10 and TGF-β cooperate in the regulatory T cell response to mucosal allergens in normal immunity and specific immunotherapy (799 citations)

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

Kurt Blaser focuses on Immunology, T cell, Immunoglobulin E, Allergy and Immune system. His Immunology and Antigen, Cytokine, Allergen, Eosinophil and IL-2 receptor investigations all form part of his Immunology research activities. His T cell research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Molecular biology, T lymphocyte, CD8 and Cell biology.

His Immunoglobulin E study combines topics in areas such as Epitope and Aspergillus fumigatus. Kurt Blaser combines subjects such as Sensitization, Asthma, Immunopathology and Atopic dermatitis with his study of Allergy. His work on Immunotherapy as part of general Immune system study is frequently linked to Histamine receptor, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (75.09%)
  • T cell (26.37%)
  • Immunoglobulin E (24.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2015)?

  • Immunology (75.09%)
  • Immune system (19.05%)
  • Allergy (21.61%)

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

Immunology, Immune system, Allergy, IL-2 receptor and Immunoglobulin E are his primary areas of study. His Immune system study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Transforming growth factor, Receptor, Antigen and Histamine. His Allergy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Immunopathology and Atopic dermatitis.

His IL-2 receptor research incorporates elements of Interleukin 21, Interleukin 10 and Antigen-presenting cell. His work deals with themes such as Epitope, In vitro and Provocation test, which intersect with Immunoglobulin E. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Cytotoxic T cell, Molecular biology, Allergen, Necrosis, Fas ligand and Eosinophil cationic protein is strongly linked to T cell.

Between 2003 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Immune Responses in Healthy and Allergic Individuals Are Characterized by a Fine Balance between Allergen-specific T Regulatory 1 and T Helper 2 Cells (908 citations)
  • Mechanisms of immune suppression by interleukin‐10 and transforming growth factor‐β: the role of T regulatory cells (495 citations)
  • Glucocorticoids upregulate FOXP3 expression and regulatory T cells in asthma (431 citations)

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

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Cytokine

Kurt Blaser spends much of his time researching Immunology, IL-2 receptor, Interleukin 21, Immune system and Cytotoxic T cell. His Antibody, Immunoglobulin E, Antigen-presenting cell, Immunotherapy and Asthma investigations are all subjects of Immunology research. Kurt Blaser works mostly in the field of Immunoglobulin E, limiting it down to topics relating to Allergen and, in certain cases, Cellular immunity, Atopy and Atopic dermatitis.

As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on IL-2 receptor, concentrating on Peripheral tolerance and intersecting with Interleukin 10. His Immune system research incorporates themes from Inflammation and Allergic inflammation. His Cytotoxic T cell research includes themes of T cell and FOXP3.
