Overview

Michael Klagsbrun was affiliated with Boston Children's Hospital in the United States. Their research focused on topics including adipokines, inflammation, and metabolic diseases, as well as immune cells in cancer and the interplay between cancer, stress, anesthesia, and the immune response.

The scientist's work spanned several fields of study, primarily in medicine, immunology, and microbiology. Their subfields included epidemiology, immunology, and psychiatry and mental health.

Klagsbrun published research in venues such as UNC Libraries, contributing at least one documented paper during their career.

  • Inflamed tumor-associated adipose tissue is a depot for macrophages that stimulate tumor growth and angiogenesis (2020, UNC Libraries)

Frequent coauthors associated with Klagsbrun's research work included:

  • Marek Wagner
  • Rolf Bjerkvig
  • Helge Wiig
  • Juan M. Melero-Martin
  • Ruei-Zeng Lin

The range of Klagsbrun's research topics indicate a focus on the cellular and molecular interactions within the immune system as it relates to cancer progression and metabolic inflammation. Their contributions added to the understanding of how macrophages in adipose tissue can influence tumor growth and angiogenesis, signaling complex interactions between immune responses and cancer biology.
