Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Virus

Steven L. Wechsler mainly focuses on Herpes simplex virus, Virology, Virus, Molecular biology and Virus latency. His studies deal with areas such as Cell culture and Gene as well as Herpes simplex virus. His work carried out in the field of Virology brings together such families of science as Epitope, Cytotoxic T cell, Programmed cell death and Immunology.

Within one scientific family, Steven L. Wechsler focuses on topics pertaining to Wild type under Virus, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Gene expression. His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Transcription and Transfection. The various areas that Steven L. Wechsler examines in his Virus Activation study include Apoptosis and Alphaherpesvirinae.

His most cited work include:

  • Virus-Induced Neuronal Apoptosis Blocked by the Herpes Simplex Virus Latency-Associated Transcript (388 citations)
  • Virus-Induced Neuronal Apoptosis Blocked by the Herpes Simplex Virus Latency-Associated Transcript (388 citations)
  • The latency-associated transcript gene of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is required for efficient in vivo spontaneous reactivation of HSV-1 from latency. (223 citations)

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

Steven L. Wechsler mainly investigates Virology, Herpes simplex virus, Virus, Immunology and Molecular biology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Epitope, Antibody and Antigen in addition to Virology. The concepts of his Herpes simplex virus study are interwoven with issues in Virus latency, Viral replication and Phenotype, Gene, Mutant.

His Herpesviridae study in the realm of Virus interacts with subjects such as Latency. He focuses mostly in the field of Immunology, narrowing it down to matters related to Cytotoxic T cell and, in some cases, CD8, Human leukocyte antigen, Asymptomatic and HSL and HSV. His study looks at the intersection of Molecular biology and topics like Apoptosis with Cell culture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virology (117.14%)
  • Herpes simplex virus (108.57%)
  • Virus (95.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2016)?

  • Virology (117.14%)
  • Herpes simplex virus (108.57%)
  • Immunology (51.43%)

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

Steven L. Wechsler focuses on Virology, Herpes simplex virus, Immunology, Cytotoxic T cell and Virus. His Virology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Epitope, Phenotype and Transfection. His Herpes simplex virus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Virus latency, Immune system, Molecular biology, Cell biology and Lytic cycle.

His research in the fields of T cell, Tears and Spleen overlaps with other disciplines such as Rabbit model. His study on Granzyme B is often connected to Latency as part of broader study in Cytotoxic T cell. He interconnects Granzyme A, Mutant, Gene and In vivo in the investigation of issues within Virus.

Between 2008 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • A genital tract peptide epitope vaccine targeting TLR-2 efficiently induces local and systemic CD8+ T cells and protects against herpes simplex virus type 2 challenge. (93 citations)
  • The Role of LAT in Increased CD8+ T Cell Exhaustion in Trigeminal Ganglia of Mice Latently Infected with Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (87 citations)
  • The Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 Latency-Associated Transcript Can Protect Neuron-Derived C1300 and Neuro2A Cells from Granzyme B-Induced Apoptosis and CD8 T-Cell Killing (70 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Virus

His primary areas of study are Virology, Herpes simplex virus, Cytotoxic T cell, CD8 and Immunology. Steven L. Wechsler has researched Virology in several fields, including Epitope, Cell culture and Sequence homology. The subject of his Herpes simplex virus research is within the realm of Virus.

His Virus study which covers Granzyme A that intersects with Herpesviridae. His work in CD8 addresses subjects such as T cell, which are connected to disciplines such as Antigen, HLA-A and Human leukocyte antigen. His study in Immunology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nose and Pathology.
