Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Cytoskeleton
  • Actin

Carol A. Otey spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Focal adhesion, Cytoskeleton, Actin and Palladin. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Actin-binding protein, Actinin, alpha 1, CD49c and Integrin. His Actinin, alpha 1 research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Collagen receptor, Integrin alpha M, α actinin, Motility and Protein structure.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Lamellipodium, Cell migration and Green fluorescent protein in addition to Focal adhesion. Carol A. Otey specializes in Cytoskeleton, namely Role of cell adhesions in neural development. His Palladin research incorporates themes from Mutation, Carcinoma in situ, Pancreatic cancer and Carcinogenesis.

His most cited work include:

  • An interaction between alpha-actinin and the beta 1 integrin subunit in vitro. (743 citations)
  • α‐actinin revisited: A fresh look at an old player (371 citations)
  • A role for p21-activated kinase in endothelial cell migration. (274 citations)

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

His main research concerns Cell biology, Palladin, Actin, Cytoskeleton and Focal adhesion. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Actin-binding protein, Actin cytoskeleton, Actin remodeling and Integrin. His Palladin research incorporates elements of Cancer research, Podosome, Cellular differentiation, Cell morphology and Arp2/3 complex.

His work in Actin tackles topics such as α actinin which are related to areas like Actina. He interconnects Molecular biology, Extracellular matrix and Cytoplasm in the investigation of issues within Cytoskeleton. His Focal adhesion study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lamellipodium and Green fluorescent protein.

  • Arp2/3 complex (10.13%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Palladin, Cell biology, Arp2/3 complex, Cytoskeleton and Cancer research. His Palladin research includes themes of Gene expression, Biophysics, Actin based motility, Actin and Extracellular matrix. His studies deal with areas such as Motility and Microbiology as well as Actin.

The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Cell culture, Cell and Actin cytoskeleton, Actin remodeling, Actin remodeling of neurons. Carol A. Otey has included themes like Vinculin, Traction force microscopy and Myosin in his Actin cytoskeleton study. Cytoskeleton and Cell morphology are commonly linked in his work.

Between 2011 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Palladin promotes invasion of pancreatic cancer cells by enhancing invadopodia formation in cancer-associated fibroblasts (80 citations)
  • Morphology and viscoelasticity of actin networks formed with the mutually interacting crosslinkers: Palladin and alpha-actinin (21 citations)
  • Suppression of TGFβ-mediated conversion of endothelial cells and fibroblasts into cancer associated (myo)fibroblasts via HDAC inhibition. (18 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Cytoskeleton
  • Biochemistry

Palladin, Cell biology, Extracellular matrix, Actin remodeling and Actin remodeling of neurons are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Pancreatic tumor, Pancreatic cancer, Cancer research, Cdc42 GTP-Binding Protein and Podosome. His Cell biology research includes elements of Fibroblast and Stromal cell.

His research in Extracellular matrix intersects with topics in Cell, Cell culture, Small interfering RNA, Cancer cell and Gene isoform. Actin cytoskeleton and Cytoskeleton are the areas that his Actin remodeling study falls under. His Actin remodeling of neurons study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as MDia1, Actin-binding protein, Actinin, alpha 1 and Actinin.
