Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Andrology, Oocyte, Intracytoplasmic sperm injection, Spermatogenesis and Oocyte activation. He has included themes like Azoospermia and Cryopreservation in his Andrology study. The various areas that Mário Sousa examines in his Spermatogenesis study include Imprinting and DNA methylation, Genomic imprinting.

His work carried out in the field of Oocyte activation brings together such families of science as Sperm, Cytoplasm, Calcium and Human fertilization. His work in the fields of Sperm, such as Spermatozoon, overlaps with other areas such as Liquid nitrogen. His studies in Human fertilization integrate themes in fields like Pregnancy and Internal medicine, Microinjection, Endocrinology.

His most cited work include:

  • Abnormal methylation of imprinted genes in human sperm is associated with oligozoospermia. (278 citations)
  • Genomic imprinting in disruptive spermatogenesis. (276 citations)
  • Human oocyte activation after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (269 citations)

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

Mário Sousa spends much of his time researching Cell biology, Andrology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Sperm. His Cell biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ultrastructure and Anatomy. His Andrology study combines topics in areas such as Azoospermia, Oocyte, Embryo, Intracytoplasmic sperm injection and Human fertilization.

His Internal medicine research includes themes of Male infertility and Germ cell. The concepts of his Endocrinology study are interwoven with issues in Cystic fibrosis, Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator and Lactate dehydrogenase. Mário Sousa studies Sperm motility which is a part of Sperm.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (21.38%)
  • Andrology (21.07%)
  • Internal medicine (18.55%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Sperm (15.41%)
  • Cell biology (21.38%)
  • Bioinformatics (5.66%)

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

Sperm, Cell biology, Bioinformatics, Disease and Sertoli cell are his primary areas of study. His study with Sperm involves better knowledge in Andrology. The study incorporates disciplines such as mTORC1, Apoptosis, MTOR signaling pathway and Kinase in addition to Andrology.

His Cell biology research integrates issues from Oxidative phosphorylation and Spermatogenesis. His Bioinformatics study incorporates themes from Ion semiconductor sequencing, Impaired spermatogenesis, Human genetics and Medical genetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Glycolysis, Metabolism, Mitochondrial DNA and Mitochondrion, Mitochondrial biogenesis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bioinformatics and Computational Tools for Next-Generation Sequencing Analysis in Clinical Genetics. (27 citations)
  • LAMA2 gene mutation update: Toward a more comprehensive picture of the laminin-α2 variome and its related phenotypes. (20 citations)
  • Molecular Mechanisms and Signaling Pathways Involved in the Nutritional Support of Spermatogenesis by Sertoli Cells (20 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

Mário Sousa mostly deals with Cell biology, Spermatogenesis, Sertoli cell, Metabolism and Cilium. His Cell biology research includes elements of Immunocytochemistry and Citric acid cycle, Glutaminolysis. Mário Sousa has researched Spermatogenesis in several fields, including Sperm and Homeostasis.

His studies examine the connections between Sertoli cell and genetics, as well as such issues in Receptor, with regards to Insulin resistance, PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, Glucose homeostasis and Phosphorylation. Mário Sousa combines subjects such as Western blot, Gene, Somatic cell, Frameshift mutation and Immunogold labelling with his study of Cilium. As part of his inquiry into Internal medicine and Endocrinology, he is doing Choline research.
