1980 - Fellow of Alfred P. Sloan Foundation

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Endocrinology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Estrogen, Preoptic area and Hypothalamus. As part of his studies on Internal medicine, Neil J. MacLusky often connects relevant areas like Estrogen receptor. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Aromatase and Estrogen receptor alpha.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Immunostaining, Immunocytochemistry, Cingulate cortex and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone. Neil J. MacLusky interconnects Carbohydrate metabolism, Supraoptic nucleus and Estradiol benzoate in the investigation of issues within Receptor. His work deals with themes such as Brain-derived neurotrophic factor, Synapse, Central nervous system and Ovariectomized rat, which intersect with Hippocampal formation.

His most cited work include:

  • Sexual differentiation of the central nervous system (1369 citations)
  • Glucose intolerance but normal satiety in mice with a null mutation in the glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor gene. (698 citations)
  • ER-X: a novel, plasma membrane-associated, putative estrogen receptor that is regulated during development and after ischemic brain injury. (491 citations)

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

Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Estrogen, Receptor and Estrogen receptor are his primary areas of study. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Sexual differentiation in his study. His study in Hypothalamus, Testosterone, Preoptic area, Androgen and Hormone is done as part of Endocrinology.

Neil J. MacLusky usually deals with Estrogen and limits it to topics linked to Estrogen binding and Estrogen receptor binding. His study in Receptor is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Steroid, Glucocorticoid, Binding site and Cytosol. His work on Estrogen receptor alpha as part of general Estrogen receptor research is frequently linked to Endometrial cancer, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (86.58%)
  • Endocrinology (83.55%)
  • Estrogen (38.96%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2020)?

  • Internal medicine (86.58%)
  • Endocrinology (83.55%)
  • Hippocampus (10.39%)

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

Neil J. MacLusky mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hippocampus, Neuroscience and Androgen. His studies in Estrogen, Dendritic spine, Testosterone, Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and Hormone are all subfields of Internal medicine research. His Endocrinology research integrates issues from Anticonvulsant and Receptor.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Progesterone Antagonist, Hypothalamus and Mifepristone in addition to Receptor. His Hippocampus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Hippocampal formation, Prefrontal cortex, Neuroplasticity and Kinase, MAPK/ERK pathway. The Androgen study combines topics in areas such as Sex characteristics, Neuroactive steroid, Testicular feminization, Androgen receptor and Sexual differentiation.

Between 2005 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Estrogen and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in hippocampus: complexity of steroid hormone-growth factor interactions in the adult CNS. (204 citations)
  • Bisphenol A prevents the synaptogenic response to estradiol in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of ovariectomized nonhuman primates. (187 citations)
  • Androgen modulation of hippocampal synaptic plasticity (166 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hippocampus, Neuroscience and Estrogen. His Internal medicine research focuses on Dendritic spine, Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and Dentate gyrus. His Dendritic spine research incorporates themes from Synaptic plasticity, Hippocampus, Androgen and Estrogen receptor.

His studies deal with areas such as NeuN, Neuroactive steroid, Prefrontal cortex and Spine as well as Hippocampus. His work carried out in the field of Neuroscience brings together such families of science as Neuropathology, Allopregnanolone and Endocrine system. Neil J. MacLusky combines subjects such as Synapse and Testicular feminization with his study of Estrogen.
