Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Cell biology, Trk receptor, Neurotrophin, Tropomyosin receptor kinase A and Nerve growth factor are his primary areas of study. His Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Downregulation and upregulation, Biochemistry, Platelet-derived growth factor receptor and Oligodendrocyte. Moses V. Chao has included themes like Epidermal growth factor, Tropomyosin receptor kinase C, Tyrosine kinase, Signal transduction and Receptor complex in his Trk receptor study.

His research integrates issues of Endocrinology, Neuroscience and Tropomyosin receptor kinase B in his study of Neurotrophin. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neurotrophic factors and Growth factor receptor. The various areas that Moses V. Chao examines in his Receptor study include Molecular biology and Binding site.

His most cited work include:

  • Neurotrophins and their receptors: a convergence point for many signalling pathways (1661 citations)
  • The trk proto-oncogene product: a signal transducing receptor for nerve growth factor (1223 citations)
  • Bradykinin and nerve growth factor release the capsaicin receptor from PtdIns(4,5)P2-mediated inhibition. (1112 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Neurotrophin, Neuroscience, Receptor and Molecular biology. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Biochemistry and Growth factor. His Neurotrophin research includes elements of Tropomyosin receptor kinase B and Nervous system.

Moses V. Chao combines subjects such as Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophic factors and Synaptic plasticity with his study of Neuroscience. His Receptor research is classified as research in Internal medicine. His Trk receptor study which covers Receptor tyrosine kinase that intersects with ROR1.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (43.67%)
  • Neurotrophin (28.92%)
  • Neuroscience (26.20%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (26.20%)
  • Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (10.54%)
  • Neurotrophic factors (14.16%)

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

Moses V. Chao focuses on Neuroscience, Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophic factors, Neurotrophin and Cell biology. Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Synaptic plasticity under Neuroscience, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Nervous system. His Brain-derived neurotrophic factor study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hippocampal formation, Endocrinology and Tropomyosin receptor kinase B.

Moses V. Chao interconnects Tropomyosin receptor kinase C and Trk receptor in the investigation of issues within Tropomyosin receptor kinase B. His research investigates the connection between Neurotrophin and topics such as Nerve growth factor that intersect with problems in Programmed cell death. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Virus latency, Receptor, Low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor and Molecular biology.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Oxytocin enables maternal behaviour by balancing cortical inhibition (342 citations)
  • Circadian glucocorticoid oscillations promote learning-dependent synapse formation and maintenance (237 citations)
  • Exercise promotes the expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) through the action of the ketone body β-hydroxybutyrate (232 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Neurotrophic factors, Tropomyosin receptor kinase B and Synaptic plasticity. Moses V. Chao has researched Brain-derived neurotrophic factor in several fields, including Hippocampal formation, Endocrinology and Signal transduction. His studies deal with areas such as Tropomyosin receptor kinase A, Intracellular and Function as well as Signal transduction.

His study in Tropomyosin receptor kinase B is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Neurotrophin, Glucocorticoid receptor and Epidermal growth factor receptor. His Synaptic plasticity research includes themes of Hippocampus and Nerve growth factor. His studies in Receptor integrate themes in fields like Neocortex, Transactivation and Cell biology.
