Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virology, Plasmodium falciparum, Immunology, Biochemistry and Antigen. His research in Virology intersects with topics in DNA sequencing and Metagenomics. His Plasmodium falciparum study is concerned with the larger field of Malaria.

His Biochemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Molecular biology, In vivo and Microbiology. His studies deal with areas such as Amino acid, DNA and Escherichia coli, Gene, Coding region as well as Molecular biology. The concepts of his Antigen study are interwoven with issues in In vitro, Antibody titer, Immune system, Immunity and Antibody.

His most cited work include:

  • Toll-like receptor 9 mediates innate immune activation by the malaria pigment hemozoin (545 citations)
  • Protective Role of CD40 in Leishmania major Infection at Two Distinct Phases of Cell-Mediated Immunity (271 citations)
  • Molecular cloning and sequence analysis of the Plasmodium falciparum dihydrofolate reductase-thymidylate synthase gene (250 citations)

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

His main research concerns Plasmodium falciparum, Malaria, Virology, Biochemistry and Antigen. His Plasmodium falciparum research focuses on subjects like Microbiology, which are linked to In vitro. The subject of his Malaria research is within the realm of Immunology.

The various areas that he examines in his Virology study include Epitope and Immunogenicity. As a part of the same scientific family, Toshihiro Horii mostly works in the field of Biochemistry, focusing on Molecular biology and, on occasion, Peptide sequence, Complementary DNA and Nucleic acid sequence. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Serine, Antibody and Immune system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Plasmodium falciparum (42.32%)
  • Malaria (28.46%)
  • Virology (26.59%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Plasmodium falciparum (42.32%)
  • Malaria (28.46%)
  • Virology (26.59%)

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

Toshihiro Horii spends much of his time researching Plasmodium falciparum, Malaria, Virology, Immune system and Malaria vaccine. His study in Plasmodium falciparum is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both In vitro, Gene, Biochemistry, Antigen and Chloroquine. To a larger extent, he studies Immunology with the aim of understanding Malaria.

His Virology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genetic diversity, Apical membrane antigen 1, Genotyping, Drug resistance and Polymerase chain reaction. His study looks at the relationship between Immune system and fields such as Cell biology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Malaria vaccine course of study focuses on Clinical trial and ELISPOT and Vaccination.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Immune evasion of Plasmodium falciparum by RIFIN via inhibitory receptors (58 citations)
  • Artemisinin-Resistant Plasmodium falciparum with High Survival Rates, Uganda, 2014-2016. (42 citations)
  • Fungal ITS1 Deep-Sequencing Strategies to Reconstruct the Composition of a 26-Species Community and Evaluation of the Gut Mycobiota of Healthy Japanese Individuals. (33 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Plasmodium falciparum, Virology, Malaria, Immune system and Genetics are his primary areas of study. He interconnects Genotyping, Gene, Polymerase chain reaction and Drug resistance in the investigation of issues within Virology. Toshihiro Horii works mostly in the field of Malaria, limiting it down to topics relating to Parasitology and, in certain cases, In vitro, Molecular biology, Gametocyte and Flow cytometry, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Immune system research incorporates elements of Antibody, Malaria vaccine and Antigen. His Antigen research incorporates themes from Host protein, Host, Serine, Blood proteins and Cell biology. His Genetics study which covers Subspecies that intersects with DNA sequencing.
