Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Immune system

Lester Kobzik mainly investigates Immunology, Inflammation, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Lung injury. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Receptor and Bronchoalveolar lavage, Lung. His Receptor study combines topics in areas such as Molecular biology and Computational biology.

His Inflammation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Toxicity, Oxidative stress, Innate immune system and Pharmacology. His work in the fields of Internal medicine, such as Heart failure, Hypoxia, Ventricular pressure and TUNEL assay, intersects with other areas such as Heme oxygenase. His Endocrinology study which covers Agonist that intersects with Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor, Sodium nitroprusside and Patch clamp.

His most cited work include:

  • Nitric oxide in skeletal muscle (877 citations)
  • An experimental model of idiopathic pneumonia syndrome after bone marrow transplantation : I. The roles of minor H antigens and endotoxin (745 citations)
  • Nitric oxide synthase in human and rat lung: immunocytochemical and histochemical localization. (744 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Immunology, Lung, Internal medicine, Inflammation and Molecular biology. His studies in Immunology integrate themes in fields like Receptor, Bronchoalveolar lavage and Macrophage. His work is dedicated to discovering how Lung, Pathology are connected with Ischemia and other disciplines.

In Internal medicine, Lester Kobzik works on issues like Endocrinology, which are connected to Thromboxane and Respiratory system. His Inflammation research includes themes of Lipopolysaccharide, Immune system and Cytokine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Respiratory burst, Cell culture and Intracellular in addition to Molecular biology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (50.00%)
  • Lung (22.25%)
  • Internal medicine (20.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Immunology (50.00%)
  • Inflammation (20.60%)
  • Macrophage (17.86%)

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

His main research concerns Immunology, Inflammation, Macrophage, Cell biology and Lung. Particularly relevant to Tumor necrosis factor alpha is his body of work in Immunology. His research on Inflammation also deals with topics like

  • Immune system that intertwine with fields like Microbiology and Lipopolysaccharide,
  • Tissue homeostasis that connect with fields like Cancer research.

As a part of the same scientific family, Lester Kobzik mostly works in the field of Macrophage, focusing on Innate immune system and, on occasion, Phagocytosis and Virology. Lester Kobzik combines subjects such as Autophagy, Molecular biology, Regulation of gene expression and Borrelia burgdorferi with his study of Cell biology. The concepts of his Lung study are interwoven with issues in Apoptosis, COPD and Bone marrow.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A Consensus Definitive Classification of Scavenger Receptors and Their Roles in Health and Disease (109 citations)
  • Standardizing Scavenger Receptor Nomenclature (109 citations)
  • TNF Drives Monocyte Dysfunction with Age and Results in Impaired Anti-pneumococcal Immunity. (69 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Immune system

His primary scientific interests are in Immunology, Lung, Innate immune system, Inflammation and Receptor. His Immunology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Offspring, DNA methylation, Pneumonia, Signal transduction and Lung injury. His Lung research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of COPD, Airway and Bone marrow.

His Innate immune system study also includes

  • Macrophage which is related to area like Phagocytosis,
  • Virology, Plasma protein binding, Herpes simplex virus and Tumor necrosis factor alpha most often made with reference to Immunity. His Inflammation research incorporates themes from Central nervous system, Blood–brain barrier, CD14 and Monocyte. In general Receptor, his work in Myeloid cells and Toll-like receptor is often linked to Confusion and Macrophage receptor with collagenous structure linking many areas of study.
