Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Cellular differentiation

His main research concerns Cell biology, Xenopus, Molecular biology, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. His Cell biology study frequently links to related topics such as Mesoderm. His Xenopus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Receptor, Regulation of gene expression and Transcription factor.

The Molecular biology study combines topics in areas such as Embryonic stem cell, Homeobox protein NANOG, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Cellular differentiation and Ectopic expression. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Blastula and Ectoderm, Notochord, Embryogenesis. The concepts of his Endocrinology study are interwoven with issues in Embryonic Induction and Growth factor.

His most cited work include:

  • Wnt-mediated activation of NeuroD1 and retro-elements during adult neurogenesis (469 citations)
  • Genome evolution in the allotetraploid frog Xenopus laevis (457 citations)
  • Maternal wnt11 activates the canonical wnt signaling pathway required for axis formation in Xenopus embryos. (431 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Xenopus, Molecular biology, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. The various areas that he examines in his Cell biology study include Embryonic stem cell, Mesoderm and Cellular differentiation. His study looks at the relationship between Xenopus and fields such as Ectoderm, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Wnt signaling pathway, Morpholino, Messenger RNA, Nodal signaling and Neurula. Makoto Asashima has included themes like Retinoic acid and Notochord in his Endocrinology study. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Stem cell, Reprogramming is strongly linked to Induced pluripotent stem cell.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (67.70%)
  • Xenopus (53.72%)
  • Molecular biology (32.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2018)?

  • Cell biology (67.70%)
  • Stem cell (18.69%)
  • Induced pluripotent stem cell (8.89%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Stem cell, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Molecular biology and Cellular differentiation. Makoto Asashima has researched Cell biology in several fields, including Xenopus, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. His Xenopus research incorporates elements of Paraxial mesoderm, Gastrulation, Ectoderm and Anatomy.

His research in Induced pluripotent stem cell intersects with topics in Reprogramming, Cell culture and Stem cell marker. His work on Lectin as part of his general Molecular biology study is frequently connected to Podocalyxin, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. In general Cellular differentiation, his work in Induced stem cells, Embryoid body and Cell potency is often linked to Bone regeneration linking many areas of study.

Between 2010 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Genome evolution in the allotetraploid frog Xenopus laevis (457 citations)
  • Development of defective and persistent Sendai virus vector: a unique gene delivery/expression system ideal for cell reprogramming. (256 citations)
  • Glycome Diagnosis of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Using Lectin Microarray (150 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Cellular differentiation

Makoto Asashima mostly deals with Cell biology, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Stem cell, Embryonic stem cell and Cellular differentiation. His work in Cell biology addresses subjects such as Endocrinology, which are connected to disciplines such as Wnt signaling pathway. His study in Induced pluripotent stem cell is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cell culture, Fibronectin, Reprogramming, Apoptosis and Molecular biology.

His studies in Molecular biology integrate themes in fields like Histone, Demethylase, Neural crest, Glycome and Neurula. His research integrates issues of Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair, Immunology, Internal medicine, Transplantation and Mesenchymal stem cell in his study of Stem cell. His work on Adult stem cell as part of general Embryonic stem cell study is frequently linked to Dispase, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
