Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Biochemistry
  • Amino acid

His scientific interests lie mostly in Proteoglycan, Biochemistry, Cell biology, Perlecan and Basement membrane. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Molecular biology, Biophysics and Glycosaminoglycan. His work on Laminin and Cell type as part of general Biochemistry research is frequently linked to Aggrecan, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Immunohistochemistry, Neurofilament, Cartilage and Senile plaques. His Perlecan research is under the purview of Heparan sulfate. His biological study deals with issues like Extracellular matrix, which deal with fields such as Cell and Myocyte.

His most cited work include:

  • Basement Membrane Complexes with Biological Activity (1358 citations)
  • Isolation of a heparan sulfate-containing proteoglycan from basement membrane (578 citations)
  • Influence of a reconstituted basement membrane and its components on casein gene expression and secretion in mouse mammary epithelial cells. (481 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Proteoglycan, Cell biology, Molecular biology and Perlecan. His Proteoglycan study incorporates themes from Biophysics and Peptide sequence. His Cell biology research includes themes of Chondrocyte, In vitro and Cartilage.

His Molecular biology research also works with subjects such as

  • Complementary DNA which intersects with area such as Recombinant DNA,
  • Cell culture, which have a strong connection to Immunology. He focuses mostly in the field of Perlecan, narrowing it down to matters related to Basement membrane and, in some cases, Laminin, Epithelium and Membrane. His Keratan sulfate study combines topics in areas such as Lumican, Cornea and Pathology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (47.80%)
  • Proteoglycan (46.83%)
  • Cell biology (40.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2019)?

  • Cell biology (40.49%)
  • Perlecan (32.20%)
  • Extracellular matrix (20.49%)

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

Cell biology, Perlecan, Extracellular matrix, Biochemistry and Stromal cell are his primary areas of study. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Cell growth, Wound healing, Receptor, Growth factor and Stimulation. His Perlecan research integrates issues from Chondrocyte, Chondroitin sulfate, Endochondral ossification and Endocrinology.

His Extracellular matrix research includes elements of Molecular biology, Agarose, Procollagen peptidase and In vitro. His Keratan sulfate study, which is part of a larger body of work in Biochemistry, is frequently linked to Proteoglycan synthesis, bridging the gap between disciplines. Keratan sulfate is a subfield of Proteoglycan that he tackles.

Between 2002 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • The molecular basis of corneal transparency (319 citations)
  • Keratocan-deficient Mice Display Alterations in Corneal Structure (149 citations)
  • Heparan and chondroitin sulfate on growth plate perlecan mediate binding and delivery of FGF-2 to FGF receptors☆ (58 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Amino acid
  • Biochemistry

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Extracellular matrix, Molecular biology, Wound healing and Perlecan. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Receptor, Biochemistry and Cell growth. He works on Biochemistry which deals in particular with Lumican.

His research in Extracellular matrix intersects with topics in Procollagen peptidase and Basement membrane. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Perlecan, narrowing it down to issues related to the Chondrocyte, and often Chondroitin sulfate, Fibroblast growth factor, Immunoprecipitation and Heparan sulfate. His Keratocan study results in a more complete grasp of Proteoglycan.
