Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Fusao Hirata mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Methylation, Enzyme and Phosphatidylethanolamine. Chemotaxis, Phospholipase, Phospholipid, Phospholipase A2 and Arachidonic acid are among the areas of Biochemistry where Fusao Hirata concentrates his study. His Phospholipid study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Histamine H2 receptor, Receptor, Histamine receptor, Immunoglobulin E and Histamine.

His Molecular biology research integrates issues from Tubercidin, cGMP-dependent protein kinase, Cyclin-dependent kinase 9 and Protein kinase A. His work deals with themes such as Membrane and Phosphatidylcholine, which intersect with Methylation. His Enzyme research includes elements of Metabolite and In vitro.

His most cited work include:

  • Phospholipid methylation and biological signal transmission (978 citations)
  • A phospholipase A2 inhibitory protein in rabbit neutrophils induced by glucocorticoids. (729 citations)
  • The regulation of lipomodulin, a phospholipase inhibitory protein, in rabbit neutrophils by phosphorylation. (376 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Methylation, Phospholipid, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. His Biochemistry study often links to related topics such as Molecular biology. The Methylation study combines topics in areas such as Concanavalin A, Membrane, Stimulation, Signal transduction and Phosphatidylethanolamine.

His studies deal with areas such as Cell membrane, Membrane fluidity, Histamine, Cell biology and Membrane lipids as well as Phospholipid. Fusao Hirata usually deals with Endocrinology and limits it to topics linked to Serotonin and Tryptophan. His studies in Phospholipase A2 integrate themes in fields like Phospholipase, Arachidonic acid, Phospholipase C and Chemotaxis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (51.88%)
  • Methylation (30.08%)
  • Phospholipid (30.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1986-2012)?

  • Internal medicine (23.31%)
  • Endocrinology (21.80%)
  • Guinea pig (6.02%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Guinea pig, Ubiquitin and Cell biology. Many of his research projects under Internal medicine are closely connected to Breast Adenocarcinoma with Breast Adenocarcinoma, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. The various areas that he examines in his Endocrinology study include Organ culture, Receptor, Annexin and Mechanism of action.

In Guinea pig, Fusao Hirata works on issues like Endothelin receptor, which are connected to Histamine. Fusao Hirata has included themes like Phospholipase, Phospholipase A2 and Arachidonic acid in his Protein biosynthesis study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Second messenger system and Phosphatidylcholine.

Between 1986 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Organ culture with proinflammatory cytokines reproduces impairment of the beta-adrenoceptor-mediated relaxation in tracheas of a guinea pig antigen model. (90 citations)
  • Dexamethasone Inhibits Respiratory Glycoconjugate Secretion from Feline Airways In Vitro by the Induction of Lipocortin (Lipomodulin) Synthesis (60 citations)
  • ET-1 released histamine from guinea pig pulmonary but not peritoneal mast cells. (47 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Amino acid

Fusao Hirata spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Guinea pig, Histamine and Endothelin receptor. His Internal medicine study incorporates themes from Organ culture, In vitro and Mechanism of action. His Organ culture study combines topics in areas such as Cytokine, Inflammation, Proinflammatory cytokine, Ovalbumin and Bronchoalveolar lavage.

His study in Mechanism of action is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Secretion, Dexamethasone, Annexin, Glycoconjugate and Glucocorticoid. His research in Histamine intersects with topics in Histamine H4 receptor, Cytotoxic T cell, Muscle contraction and Binding site. His Endothelin receptor research incorporates themes from Nicardipine and Constriction.
