Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery

Pathology, Stem cell, Bone morphogenetic protein, Bone healing and Cartilage are his primary areas of study. His studies in Pathology integrate themes in fields like Muscle regeneration, Regeneration and Decorin. His research investigates the connection between Stem cell and topics such as Cellular differentiation that intersect with problems in Genetic enhancement and Immune system.

His study in Bone morphogenetic protein is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cancer research and Bone morphogenetic protein 2. His Bone healing research integrates issues from Bone morphogenetic protein 4, Immunology and Cell biology. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Bone regeneration, Bone morphogenetic protein 7 and Bone remodeling.

His most cited work include:

  • Clonal Isolation of Muscle-Derived Cells Capable of Enhancing Muscle Regeneration and Bone Healing (603 citations)
  • Synergistic enhancement of bone formation and healing by stem cell–expressed VEGF and bone morphogenetic protein-4 (592 citations)
  • VEGF improves, whereas sFlt1 inhibits, BMP2-induced bone formation and bone healing through modulation of angiogenesis. (334 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Stem cell, Pathology, Cell biology, Bone healing and Bone morphogenetic protein. His research integrates issues of Endothelial stem cell, Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair, Immunology, Anatomy and Mesenchymal stem cell in his study of Stem cell. His Pathology study incorporates themes from Wound healing, Heterotopic ossification, Regeneration and Skeletal muscle.

His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bone regeneration, Cellular differentiation and Bone morphogenetic protein 2. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bone morphogenetic protein 7, Bone morphogenetic protein 4 and Genetic enhancement in addition to Bone healing. His Bone morphogenetic protein research incorporates elements of Hindlimb, Ex vivo and Severe combined immunodeficiency.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stem cell (49.44%)
  • Pathology (43.82%)
  • Cell biology (40.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2016)?

  • Cell biology (40.45%)
  • Stem cell (49.44%)
  • Pathology (43.82%)

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

Arvydas Usas focuses on Cell biology, Stem cell, Pathology, Cellular differentiation and Adult stem cell. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Internal medicine, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Endocrinology and Skeletal muscle. His Stem cell study combines topics in areas such as Wound healing, Immunology, Bone morphogenetic protein 2, Bone regeneration and Mesenchymal stem cell.

His work deals with themes such as Endothelial stem cell and Bone morphogenetic protein 4, which intersect with Bone morphogenetic protein 2. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nerve guidance conduit and Intervertebral disc. Arvydas Usas works mostly in the field of Cellular differentiation, limiting it down to topics relating to Transplantation and, in certain cases, Progenitor cell.

Between 2012 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • The effect of platelet-rich plasma on the regenerative therapy of muscle derived stem cells for articular cartilage repair (99 citations)
  • Human muscle–derived stem/progenitor cells promote functional murine peripheral nerve regeneration (62 citations)
  • A comparison of bone regeneration with human mesenchymal stem cells and muscle-derived stem cells and the critical role of BMP. (61 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery

Immunology, Pathology, Platelet-rich plasma, Mesenchymal stem cell and Cell biology are his primary areas of study. The various areas that he examines in his Immunology study include Bone morphogenetic protein 4, Cancer research, Cell growth, Type II collagen and Chondrocyte. His Pathology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sciatic nerve, Nerve guidance conduit, Peripheral nerve injury, Adult stem cell and Muscle atrophy.

There are a combination of areas like Cellular differentiation, Progenitor cell, Platelet-derived growth factor, Transplantation and Chondrogenesis integrated together with his Platelet-rich plasma study. His Mesenchymal stem cell research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Clinical uses of mesenchymal stem cells, Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair, Stem cell, Bone morphogenetic protein 2 and Bone regeneration. Cell biology is closely attributed to Mature Bone in his work.
