Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Bernhard Lüscher mostly deals with Cell biology, Molecular biology, Transcription factor, Biochemistry and Cancer research. His work deals with themes such as Macrophage migration inhibitory factor, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Receptor, GABAA receptor and Cyclin, which intersect with Cell biology. His work on GABAA-rho receptor as part of general GABAA receptor research is frequently linked to Gephyrin, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His studies deal with areas such as Binding protein, Transactivation, Promoter, Gene product and MYB as well as Molecular biology. His research combines Histone and Transcription factor. The concepts of his Cancer research study are interwoven with issues in CDK inhibitor, Gene expression, Carcinogenesis, Oncogene and NAD+ kinase.

His most cited work include:

  • Proteins of the Myc Network: Essential Regulators of Cell Growth and Differentiation (684 citations)
  • Toward a unified nomenclature for mammalian ADP-ribosyltransferases (572 citations)
  • Cloning and expression of AP-2, a cell-type-specific transcription factor that activates inducible enhancer elements. (477 citations)

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

Bernhard Lüscher mainly investigates Cell biology, Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Transcription factor and GABAA receptor. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Cell cycle, Apoptosis and Cell growth. In his research, Regulation of gene expression and Cancer research is intimately related to Gene expression, which falls under the overarching field of Molecular biology.

His research on Transcription factor often connects related topics like Transcription. His research integrates issues of Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Neuroscience in his study of GABAA receptor. His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Glutamate receptor and gamma-Aminobutyric acid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (37.19%)
  • Molecular biology (24.56%)
  • Biochemistry (17.54%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Cell biology (37.19%)
  • Biochemistry (17.54%)
  • Cancer research (9.47%)

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

His main research concerns Cell biology, Biochemistry, Cancer research, Neuroscience and ADP-ribosylation. He has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Chromatin, Mutant and NAD+ kinase. His research in Cancer research intersects with topics in Psoriasis and DNA damage.

The Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as gamma-Aminobutyric acid and GABAA receptor. His ADP-ribosylation study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biophysics and Cell signaling, Signal transduction. His work in Kinase addresses issues such as Phosphorylation, which are connected to fields such as Molecular biology.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Disinhibition of somatostatin-positive GABAergic interneurons results in an anxiolytic and antidepressant-like brain state (100 citations)
  • ADP-Ribosylation, a Multifaceted Posttranslational Modification Involved in the Control of Cell Physiology in Health and Disease. (78 citations)
  • The conserved macrodomains of the non-structural proteins of Chikungunya virus and other pathogenic positive strand RNA viruses function as mono-ADP-ribosylhydrolases. (70 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Bernhard Lüscher spends much of his time researching Cell biology, GABAergic, Biochemistry, Neuroscience and gamma-Aminobutyric acid. Bernhard Lüscher interconnects Cell, Zinc finger, DNA repair and ADP-ribosylation, NAD+ kinase in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. His GABAergic research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glutamate receptor and Neurotransmission.

In general Biochemistry, his work in Receptor, I-Kappa-B Kinase and Carcinogenesis is often linked to RIPK1 linking many areas of study. His studies examine the connections between Neuroscience and genetics, as well as such issues in GABAA receptor, with regards to Postpartum depression. His Regulation of gene expression research incorporates elements of Molecular biology and Histone H3, Methylation.
