Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Apoptosis

Maria Febbraio mainly focuses on CD36, Scavenger receptor, Biochemistry, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. The subject of her CD36 research is within the realm of Receptor. Her research investigates the connection between Scavenger receptor and topics such as Microglia that intersect with problems in Neuroscience, Endocytosis, Cell adhesion and Neuroinflammation.

In general Biochemistry, her work in Pancreas and Pentadecanoic acid is often linked to Immunostaining linking many areas of study. Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Diabetes mellitus and Fatty acid. Her Endocrinology research includes elements of Anesthesia, Cerebral blood flow, Middle cerebral artery, Ischemia and Brain damage.

Her most cited work include:

  • CD36: a class B scavenger receptor involved in angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, inflammation, and lipid metabolism (913 citations)
  • Targeted disruption of the class B scavenger receptor CD36 protects against atherosclerotic lesion development in mice (869 citations)
  • Signals leading to apoptosis-dependent inhibition of neovascularization by thrombospondin-1 (856 citations)

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

CD36, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Scavenger receptor and Cell biology are her primary areas of study. Her CD36 research integrates issues from Foam cell, Macrophage and Immunology. In general Internal medicine study, her work on Fatty liver, Fatty acid metabolism and Ischemia often relates to the realm of Liver X receptor, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

Her work deals with themes such as Apolipoprotein E and Fatty acid, which intersect with Endocrinology. Her Scavenger receptor research entails a greater understanding of Lipoprotein. In her research, Endothelial stem cell is intimately related to Angiogenesis, which falls under the overarching field of Cell biology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • CD36 (76.43%)
  • Internal medicine (38.85%)
  • Endocrinology (38.22%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2016)?

  • Immunology (21.02%)
  • CD36 (76.43%)
  • Endocrinology (38.22%)

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

Maria Febbraio mostly deals with Immunology, CD36, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Inflammation. Her work in Immunology covers topics such as LDL receptor which are related to areas like Lipopolysaccharide, Lesion and Receptor. Her work focuses on many connections between CD36 and other disciplines, such as Hyperlipidemia, that overlap with her field of interest in Stroke.

Her work in the fields of Endocrinology, such as Scavenger receptor, Lipolysis, Obesity and Adipose tissue, intersects with other areas such as Endothelial nitric oxide synthase. Her Scavenger receptor study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Steatohepatitis. Her Inflammation research incorporates elements of Arteriosclerosis and Disease.

Between 2011 and 2016, her most popular works were:

  • Internalization of Modified Lipids by CD36 and SR-A Leads to Hepatic Inflammation and Lysosomal Cholesterol Storage in Kupffer Cells (84 citations)
  • CD36 is involved in astrocyte activation and astroglial scar formation. (62 citations)
  • Vimentin is an endogenous ligand for the pattern recognition receptor Dectin-1 (54 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Apoptosis

Maria Febbraio spends much of her time researching Cell biology, Immunology, Inflammation, Cell polarity and Rac GTP-Binding Proteins. Cell biology is closely attributed to Small interfering RNA in her research. Her Immunology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Adipose tissue and Gliosis.

The concepts of her Inflammation study are interwoven with issues in Insulin, Insulin resistance, Myeloid, Molecular biology and Monocyte. Her Cell polarity study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pseudopodia, Guanine nucleotide exchange factor, Macrophage and Intracellular. Maria Febbraio incorporates Rac GTP-Binding Proteins and Myosin light-chain kinase in her studies.
