Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

Alexander Pfeifer mostly deals with Cell biology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Molecular biology and Transgene. A large part of his Cell biology studies is devoted to Focal adhesion. His work on Signal transduction expands to the thematically related Internal medicine.

His studies in Endocrinology integrate themes in fields like Phosphodiesterase 3 and Protein kinase A. His work deals with themes such as Cell culture, Integrin, Integrin binding and Gene, Transduction, which intersect with Molecular biology. His Transgene study combines topics in areas such as Embryonic stem cell, Western blot, Stem cell and Transgenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Neuronal fate determinants of adult olfactory bulb neurogenesis. (536 citations)
  • Lack of an endothelial store-operated Ca2+ current impairs agonist-dependent vasorelaxation in TRP4-/- mice. (508 citations)
  • Transgenesis by lentiviral vectors: Lack of gene silencing in mammalian embryonic stem cells and preimplantation embryos (490 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Brown adipose tissue and Adipose tissue. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular biology, Embryonic stem cell and Nitric oxide. His research on Internal medicine also deals with topics like

  • Cardiology and related Connexin,
  • In vivo and related In vitro.

His Endocrinology research incorporates themes from Receptor and Protein kinase A. His research investigates the link between Brown adipose tissue and topics such as microRNA that cross with problems in Epilepsy. His work carried out in the field of Adipose tissue brings together such families of science as Inflammation, Obesity and Bioinformatics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (35.78%)
  • Internal medicine (37.61%)
  • Endocrinology (32.57%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cell biology (35.78%)
  • Internal medicine (37.61%)
  • Brown adipose tissue (20.18%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Internal medicine, Brown adipose tissue, Endocrinology and Receptor. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Embryonic stem cell and Downregulation and upregulation. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Gastroenterology and Cardiology.

Alexander Pfeifer has researched Brown adipose tissue in several fields, including Adenosine, White adipose tissue, Lipolysis, Adipogenesis and In vivo. The White adipose tissue study combines topics in areas such as Thermogenesis and Metabolism. His work on Adipose tissue as part of general Endocrinology study is frequently connected to Dental alveolus, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Attenuation of replication by a 29 nucleotide deletion in SARS-coronavirus acquired during the early stages of human-to-human transmission. (202 citations)
  • PVAT and Its Relation to Brown, Beige, and White Adipose Tissue in Development and Function (45 citations)
  • Direct targeting of Gαq and Gα11 oncoproteins in cancer cells (35 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine

Alexander Pfeifer mainly investigates Internal medicine, Brown adipose tissue, Adipose tissue, White adipose tissue and Endocrinology. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Gastroenterology and In vivo. Alexander Pfeifer has included themes like Inflammation, Phenotype, Paracrine signalling and Endocrine system in his Adipose tissue study.

In his study, Cell biology is inextricably linked to FOXP3, which falls within the broad field of Inflammation. His White adipose tissue research integrates issues from Gene expression, Browning, microRNA, Adipogenesis and Energy homeostasis. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Receptor and Perfusion.
