Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Enzyme

Frank Sundler mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Vasoactive intestinal peptide, Enteroendocrine cell and Neuropeptide. He merges Internal medicine with Population in his study. His studies in Endocrinology integrate themes in fields like Calcitonin gene-related peptide and Neuropeptide Y receptor.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Peripheral nervous system and Nerve fiber. His research in Vasoactive intestinal peptide intersects with topics in Immunohistochemistry, Adrenergic, Anatomy and Cell bodies. His work deals with themes such as Immunocytochemistry, Small intestine, Secretin, Pancreatic polypeptide and Peptide YY, which intersect with Enteroendocrine cell.

His most cited work include:

  • Neuropeptide Y co-exists and co-operates with noradrenaline in perivascular nerve fibers (668 citations)
  • Common variant in MTNR1B associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes and impaired early insulin secretion (553 citations)
  • Localization of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) to central and peripheral neurons (536 citations)

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

Frank Sundler mostly deals with Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Vasoactive intestinal peptide, Neuropeptide and Enteroendocrine cell. His is involved in several facets of Internal medicine study, as is seen by his studies on Gastrin, Enterochromaffin-like cell, Calcitonin gene-related peptide, Somatostatin and Histamine. Frank Sundler works mostly in the field of Endocrinology, limiting it down to concerns involving Neuropeptide Y receptor and, occasionally, Nerve fiber.

Frank Sundler interconnects Substance P, Anatomy and Pathology in the investigation of issues within Vasoactive intestinal peptide. His work on Galanin as part of general Neuropeptide research is frequently linked to Enkephalin, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Enteroendocrine cell research integrates issues from Peptide YY and Peptide hormone.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (75.04%)
  • Endocrinology (72.35%)
  • Vasoactive intestinal peptide (23.02%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2015)?

  • Internal medicine (75.04%)
  • Endocrinology (72.35%)
  • Islet (9.57%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Islet, Insulin and Receptor. His study in Internal medicine concentrates on Neuropeptide Y receptor, Insulin resistance, Pancreatic islets, Calcitonin gene-related peptide and Immunocytochemistry. His Endocrinology research includes elements of Neuropeptide and Vasoactive intestinal peptide.

His Vasoactive intestinal peptide study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nitric oxide synthase, Substance P, Ileum and Pathology. His work on Amylin as part of his general Islet study is frequently connected to Genetically modified mouse, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His studies deal with areas such as Secretin, In vitro and Apamin as well as Receptor.

Between 1997 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Common variant in MTNR1B associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes and impaired early insulin secretion (553 citations)
  • Vascular endothelial growth factor is a neurotrophic factor which stimulates axonal outgrowth through the flk-1 receptor. (325 citations)
  • Distribution of pancreatic polypeptide and peptide YY. (260 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Insulin, Neuropeptide and Islet. In his works, Frank Sundler undertakes multidisciplinary study on Internal medicine and In situ hybridization. Frank Sundler has included themes like Receptor and Calcitonin gene-related peptide in his Endocrinology study.

His research integrates issues of Diabetes mellitus and Hormone in his study of Insulin. His Islet research incorporates elements of Glucose tolerance test, Glucagon, Cell type and Glucose homeostasis. His Enteroendocrine cell research incorporates elements of Peptide YY and Somatostatin.
