Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Hormone

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Kisspeptin, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone and Hypothalamus. The Anteroventral periventricular nucleus, Luteinizing hormone, Gonadotropin secretion and Arcuate nucleus research Donald K. Clifton does as part of his general Internal medicine study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Leptin receptor, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. He has researched Endocrinology in several fields, including Neuropeptide and In situ hybridization.

He studied Kisspeptin and Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism that intersect with Forebrain. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Gonadotropin-releasing hormone, Dynorphin is strongly linked to Neurokinin B. Donald K. Clifton interconnects Testosterone, Signal transduction and Gonadotropin in the investigation of issues within Kisspeptins.

His most cited work include:

  • LEPTIN IS A METABOLIC SIGNAL TO THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM (963 citations)
  • A Role for Kisspeptins in the Regulation of Gonadotropin Secretion in the Mouse (908 citations)
  • Regulation of Kiss1 gene expression in the brain of the female mouse (790 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Luteinizing hormone and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone. His studies in Kisspeptin, Gonadotropin secretion, Gonadotropin, Arcuate nucleus and Galanin-like peptide are all subfields of Internal medicine research. The concepts of his Kisspeptin study are interwoven with issues in Neurokinin B, Kisspeptins and Arc.

His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Neuropeptide, Galanin and In situ hybridization. His work on Periventricular nucleus as part of general Hypothalamus research is frequently linked to Leptin receptor, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Luteinizing hormone research includes themes of Follicular phase, Luteal phase, Menstrual cycle and Pulsatile flow.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (93.79%)
  • Endocrinology (91.93%)
  • Hypothalamus (32.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2017)?

  • Internal medicine (93.79%)
  • Endocrinology (91.93%)
  • Kisspeptin (17.39%)

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

Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Kisspeptin, Neuropeptide and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone are his primary areas of study. Gonadotropin secretion, Arcuate nucleus, Receptor, Neurokinin B and Hormone are subfields of Internal medicine in which his conducts study. The various areas that Donald K. Clifton examines in his Endocrinology study include Galanin and Galanin-like peptide.

Donald K. Clifton has included themes like Knockout mouse and In situ hybridization in his Galanin study. His Kisspeptin research integrates issues from Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, Dynorphin, Signal transduction, Kisspeptins and Arc. His research integrates issues of Testosterone, Forebrain and Gonadotropin in his study of Kisspeptins.

Between 2002 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • A Role for Kisspeptins in the Regulation of Gonadotropin Secretion in the Mouse (908 citations)
  • Regulation of Kiss1 gene expression in the brain of the female mouse (790 citations)
  • Activation of Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Neurons by Kisspeptin as a Neuroendocrine Switch for the Onset of Puberty (776 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Hormone

Donald K. Clifton spends much of his time researching Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Kisspeptin, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone and Anteroventral periventricular nucleus. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Receptor and Neurokinin B. His work in Arcuate nucleus, Luteinizing hormone, Gonadotropin secretion, Neuropeptide and Hypothalamus are all subfields of Internal medicine research.

In his papers, Donald K. Clifton integrates diverse fields, such as Gonadotropin-releasing hormone and Luteinizing hormone secretion. His study focuses on the intersection of Arc and fields such as Androgen with connections in the field of Sex characteristics and Dopaminergic. His Kisspeptins study combines topics in areas such as Testosterone and Gonadotropin.
