Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Transcription factor, Molecular biology, Cell biology, Biochemistry and Gene. Alvaro Puga studies Aryl hydrocarbon receptor which is a part of Transcription factor. His Molecular biology research incorporates themes from Aromatic hydrocarbon receptor, CYP1A2, Psychological repression, Mutagen and MAP kinase kinase kinase.

His study in Cell biology focuses on Signal transduction in particular. The various areas that Alvaro Puga examines in his Gene study include Drug metabolizing enzymes and Enzyme. His work deals with themes such as Cell cycle, Regulation of gene expression and Receptor, which intersect with Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator.

His most cited work include:

  • REGULATION OF GENE EXPRESSION BY REACTIVE OXYGEN (957 citations)
  • Role of the Ah receptor and the dioxin-inducible [Ah] gene battery in toxicity, cancer, and signal transduction. (392 citations)
  • The aryl hydrocarbon receptor cross-talks with multiple signal transduction pathways. (318 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Molecular biology, Aryl hydrocarbon receptor, Cell biology, Transcription factor and Gene. Alvaro Puga has researched Molecular biology in several fields, including Cell culture, Reporter gene, Gene expression, Chromatin immunoprecipitation and Messenger RNA. His Aryl hydrocarbon receptor research includes elements of Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Cancer research.

His research investigates the connection with Cell biology and areas like Regulation of gene expression which intersect with concerns in DNA methylation, Epigenetics and Transcription. His work focuses on many connections between Transcription factor and other disciplines, such as Cell cycle, that overlap with his field of interest in Cell growth and Receptor. His Gene study contributes to a more complete understanding of Genetics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Molecular biology (36.05%)
  • Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (31.97%)
  • Cell biology (27.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (31.97%)
  • Cell biology (27.89%)
  • Internal medicine (13.61%)

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

Alvaro Puga mainly investigates Aryl hydrocarbon receptor, Cell biology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Signal transduction. His Aryl hydrocarbon receptor study is concerned with Transcription factor in general. His studies deal with areas such as Cancer research, Environmental exposure and Euchromatin as well as Transcription factor.

His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Chromatin, Embryonic stem cell, Epigenetics and Cellular differentiation. His Signal transduction research includes themes of AH Receptor and Regulation of gene expression. His Molecular biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Histone H3, Gene expression and Gene expression profiling.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Life-Long Implications of Developmental Exposure to Environmental Stressors: New Perspectives (84 citations)
  • Epigenetics as a mechanism linking developmental exposures to long-term toxicity (70 citations)
  • Lead Exposure during Early Human Development and DNA Methylation of Imprinted Gene Regulatory Elements in Adulthood. (40 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Aryl hydrocarbon receptor, Transcription factor, Cell biology, Molecular biology and Endocrinology. The concepts of his Aryl hydrocarbon receptor study are interwoven with issues in Gene expression, Homeostasis, HDAC10, Histone and Histone methylation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Embryonic stem cell and Mediator in addition to Transcription factor.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Morphogenesis and Transactivation. Alvaro Puga focuses mostly in the field of Molecular biology, narrowing it down to topics relating to DNA methylation and, in certain cases, Tumor suppressor proteins and Insulin-like growth factor-II. Alvaro Puga interconnects Internal medicine, Signal transduction, Growth factor, Zebrafish and Cell cycle in the investigation of issues within Endocrinology.
