Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Myosin, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Stimulation. His Myosin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soleus muscle, Lagomorpha and Gene isoform. As a part of the same scientific study, Dirk Pette usually deals with the Soleus muscle, concentrating on Cell biology and frequently concerns with Skeletal Muscle Fibers.

He has included themes like Messenger RNA, Gene expression, Major histocompatibility complex and Skeletal muscle in his Gene isoform study. His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Mitochondrion and Lactate dehydrogenase. His work carried out in the field of Stimulation brings together such families of science as Electrophysiology, Denervation, Isometric exercise, Endoplasmic reticulum and Muscle contraction.

His most cited work include:

  • Cellular and molecular diversities of mammalian skeletal muscle fibers (733 citations)
  • Invited review: Neural control of phenotypic expression in mammalian muscle fibers (665 citations)
  • Myosin isoforms, muscle fiber types, and transitions. (634 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Stimulation and Myosin. His research investigates the link between Biochemistry and topics such as Biophysics that cross with problems in Anatomy and Receptor. The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Endoplasmic reticulum, Parvalbumin and Citrate synthase.

His research integrates issues of Calcium and Isometric exercise in his study of Endocrinology. His Stimulation study incorporates themes from Fast twitch muscle, Gene expression, Lagomorpha, Muscle contraction and Tibialis anterior muscle. His Myosin study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Skeletal muscle, Molecular biology, Myofibril and Gene isoform.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (44.01%)
  • Internal medicine (39.48%)
  • Endocrinology (39.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2021)?

  • Myosin (36.25%)
  • Skeletal muscle (24.92%)
  • Endocrinology (39.48%)

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

Dirk Pette mostly deals with Myosin, Skeletal muscle, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Stimulation. His Myosin research incorporates themes from Hindlimb Suspension, Molecular biology, Major histocompatibility complex and Gene isoform. His Skeletal muscle research incorporates elements of Phenotype, Biochemistry, MYH7 and Myocyte, Cell biology.

His work deals with themes such as Biophysics and Muscle contraction, which intersect with Biochemistry. His Endocrinology research includes themes of Calcium, Citrate synthase, Enzyme, Parvalbumin and Mitochondrion. His study looks at the relationship between Stimulation and fields such as Receptor, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 1996 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Myosin isoforms, muscle fiber types, and transitions. (634 citations)
  • MAMMALIAN SKELETAL MUSCLE FIBER TYPE TRANSITIONS (546 citations)
  • Transitions of muscle fiber phenotypic profiles. (412 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

Dirk Pette focuses on Myosin, Skeletal muscle, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Gene isoform. His Myosin research is mostly focused on the topic Myosin light-chain kinase. His Skeletal muscle study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phenotype, Biochemistry and Cytosol.

Dirk Pette works mostly in the field of Biochemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Biophysics and, in certain cases, Fiber type. His Endocrinology study focuses on Stimulation in particular. His studies in Gene isoform integrate themes in fields like Messenger RNA, Myofibril and Major histocompatibility complex.
