Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Cancer

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Connexin, Gap junction, Gap junction assembly and Pannexin. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Cellular differentiation, Transfection and Cell membrane. His Connexin research incorporates elements of Cancer, Mammary gland, Carcinoma, Endocytosis and Radiation therapy.

His Gap junction research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell culture, Internalization, Molecular biology and Phosphorylation. His Gap junction assembly study also includes fields such as

  • Cell junction, which have a strong connection to Cell adhesion molecule and Immunoblot Analysis,
  • Oculodentodigital dysplasia and Positional cloning most often made with reference to Mutation. Dale W. Laird has included themes like Purinergic receptor, Apoptosis, Programmed cell death, Knockout mouse and Membrane channel in his Pannexin study.

His most cited work include:

  • Multicolor and Electron Microscopic Imaging of Connexin Trafficking (808 citations)
  • Pannexin 1 channels mediate ‘find-me’ signal release and membrane permeability during apoptosis (710 citations)
  • Life cycle of connexins in health and disease (631 citations)

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

Dale W. Laird mainly focuses on Cell biology, Connexin, Gap junction, Pannexin and Mutant. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Cell, Internalization and Cellular differentiation. His Connexin study also includes

  • Mammary gland most often made with reference to Endocrinology,
  • Cancer research which connect with Metastasis.

While the research belongs to areas of Gap junction, he spends his time largely on the problem of Green fluorescent protein, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Transfection. His work deals with themes such as Membrane channel, Caspase, Purinergic receptor and Knockout mouse, which intersect with Pannexin. His research on Mutant also deals with topics like

  • Mutation and Gene most often made with reference to Oculodentodigital dysplasia,
  • Wound healing together with Epidermis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (60.00%)
  • Connexin (38.46%)
  • Gap junction (37.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Cell biology (60.00%)
  • Connexin (38.46%)
  • Gap junction (37.95%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Connexin, Gap junction, Pannexin and Oculodentodigital dysplasia. He interconnects Cell, Mutant and Cellular differentiation in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. His studies deal with areas such as Epidermis, Cochlea, Paracrine signalling and Autocrine signalling as well as Connexin.

Dale W. Laird has researched Gap junction in several fields, including Organ of Corti, Stratum granulosum, Hair cell, Keratinocyte and Epidermis. The concepts of his Pannexin study are interwoven with issues in Endocrinology, Knockout mouse and Internal medicine. His Oculodentodigital dysplasia study incorporates themes from Cell signaling, Neuroscience, Mutation and Chondrocyte, Cartilage.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Gap junctions and cancer: communicating for 50 years (166 citations)
  • Assessing the carcinogenic potential of low-dose exposures to chemical mixtures in the environment: The challenge ahead (147 citations)
  • Connexins in Cardiovascular and Neurovascular Health and Disease: Pharmacological Implications (113 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Cancer

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Connexin, Pannexin, Gap junction and Cancer. Dale W. Laird does research in Cell biology, focusing on Signal transduction specifically. His Connexin research includes themes of Paracrine signalling, Disease, Autocrine signalling and Function.

His Function study which covers Membrane channel that intersects with Intracellular. His research integrates issues of Knockout mouse, Downregulation and upregulation and Pathology in his study of Pannexin. His Gap junction research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cell, Cytoplasm, Extracellular, Stimulation and Cell damage.
