Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron
  • Central nervous system

His primary scientific interests are in Neuroscience, Endocrinology, Internal medicine, Receptor and Spinal cord. His work deals with themes such as Agonist, Opioid peptide and Pharmacology, which intersect with Neuroscience. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Endocrinology, Nucleus raphe magnus and Raphe is strongly linked to Neuropeptide.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Endogeny and Premovement neuronal activity. His research in Spinal cord intersects with topics in Laterodorsal tegmental nucleus, Raphe nuclei and Brainstem. Biophysics is closely connected to Immunocytochemistry in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Periaqueductal gray.

His most cited work include:

  • Distribution and targeting of a mu-opioid receptor (MOR1) in brain and spinal cord (565 citations)
  • Reduction of Lipofuscin-like Autofluorescence in Fluorescently Labeled Tissue (545 citations)
  • delta-Opioid receptor immunoreactivity: distribution in brainstem and spinal cord, and relationship to biogenic amines and enkephalin (247 citations)

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

Neuroscience, Spinal cord, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Serotonergic are his primary areas of study. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Opioid receptor, Opioid and Postsynaptic potential. Martin W. Wessendorf has included themes like Nociception, Central nervous system, Anatomy, Brainstem and Substance P in his Spinal cord study.

His Substance P research incorporates themes from Neurotransmitter and Serotonin. His Endocrinology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Neuropeptide, Receptor and Nucleus raphe magnus. His work on Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Tyrosine hydroxylase as part of general Internal medicine study is frequently connected to Aromatase, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (34.72%)
  • Spinal cord (34.72%)
  • Endocrinology (31.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Nociception (18.06%)
  • Pharmacology (9.72%)
  • Spinal cord (34.72%)

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

Martin W. Wessendorf focuses on Nociception, Pharmacology, Spinal cord, Dynorphin and Receptor. His studies in Nociception integrate themes in fields like Nerve injury, Neuropathic pain and Neuroscience. The concepts of his Neuroscience study are interwoven with issues in Membrane and Rostral ventromedial medulla.

His Pharmacology research includes elements of GABAB receptor, Neurotransmission, Dopamine and Metabotropic receptor. His Dynorphin research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nociceptin receptor, Opioid receptor, κ-opioid receptor and Endogenous opioid. His study on Receptor is covered under Internal medicine.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Spinal Synthesis of Estrogen and Concomitant Signaling by Membrane Estrogen Receptors Regulate Spinal κ- and μ-Opioid Receptor Heterodimerization and Female-Specific Spinal Morphine Antinociception (71 citations)
  • Neuronal loss in the rostral ventromedial medulla in a rat model of neuropathic pain (61 citations)
  • Acute Cocaine Exposure Weakens GABAB Receptor-Dependent G-Protein-Gated Inwardly Rectifying K+ Signaling in Dopamine Neurons of the Ventral Tegmental Area (50 citations)

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

  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron
  • Central nervous system

His primary areas of study are Nociception, Pharmacology, Internal medicine, Receptor and Dynorphin. His Nociception research incorporates elements of Spinal cord, Neuroscience, Brainstem and Medulla oblongata. Martin W. Wessendorf has researched Pharmacology in several fields, including Glutamatergic, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Neurotransmission.

His Internal medicine study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Endocrinology. His research in the fields of κ-opioid receptor and Opioid receptor overlaps with other disciplines such as Estrogen receptor beta and Estrogen receptor alpha.
