Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Biochemistry

Peter Grafe mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Biophysics, Depolarization, Membrane potential and Electrophysiology. Peter Grafe has researched Neuroscience in several fields, including Acetylcholine and Nociception. His study in Depolarization focuses on Membrane hyperpolarization in particular.

His Membrane potential research incorporates elements of Endocrinology, Stimulation, Olfactory system, Extracellular and Intracellular. The various areas that Peter Grafe examines in his Electrophysiology study include Peripheral, Stimulus, Diabetes mellitus, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Motor nerve. He usually deals with Axon and limits it to topics linked to Tetrodotoxin and Nerve conduction velocity and Tetraethylammonium.

His most cited work include:

  • Function and distribution of three types of rectifying channel in rat spinal root myelinated axons. (310 citations)
  • Ion activities and potassium uptake mechanisms of glial cells in guinea-pig olfactory cortex slices. (289 citations)
  • A transient outward current in a mammalian central neurone blocked by 4-aminopyridine (239 citations)

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

Peter Grafe mainly investigates Neuroscience, Biophysics, Membrane potential, Internal medicine and Depolarization. His work on Electrophysiology, Axon and Hyperpolarization as part of general Neuroscience research is frequently linked to Unmyelinated nerve fiber, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work deals with themes such as Extracellular, Biochemistry, Intracellular and Stimulation, which intersect with Biophysics.

Peter Grafe combines subjects such as Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Reversal potential and Olfactory system with his study of Membrane potential. He interconnects Diabetes mellitus, Endocrinology, Cardiology and Tetraethylammonium chloride in the investigation of issues within Internal medicine. His Depolarization study also includes

  • Sodium channel which intersects with area such as Anesthesia,
  • Central nervous system which is related to area like Anatomy.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (42.31%)
  • Biophysics (37.50%)
  • Membrane potential (26.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2020)?

  • Neuroscience (42.31%)
  • Axon (14.42%)
  • Sodium channel (9.62%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Axon, Sodium channel, Oxaliplatin and Nociception. His work on Electrophysiology, Membrane hyperpolarization and Neuropathic pain as part of general Neuroscience study is frequently linked to Unmyelinated nerve fiber, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Axon study deals with Compound muscle action potential intersecting with Healthy subjects, Inward rectification and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

His Sodium channel study often links to related topics such as Depolarization. His Depolarization study is concerned with the larger field of Biophysics. The Nociception study combines topics in areas such as Agonist, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, 5-HT receptor and Receptor potential.

Between 2003 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Anticancer drug oxaliplatin induces acute cooling-aggravated neuropathy via sodium channel subtype Na(V)1.6-resurgent and persistent current. (131 citations)
  • Chemical mediators enhance the excitability of unmyelinated sensory axons in normal and injured peripheral nerve of the rat. (73 citations)
  • Retigabine reduces the excitability of unmyelinated peripheral human axons. (56 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Biochemistry
  • Neurotransmitter

His primary areas of study are Neuroscience, Nociception, Axon, Sural nerve and Peripheral neuropathy. Peter Grafe specializes in Neuroscience, namely Neuropathic pain. His Nociception research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hyperpolarization, Agonist, 5-HT receptor, Motor neuron and Stimulation.

His studies in Sural nerve integrate themes in fields like Nerve conduction velocity and Electrophysiology. His Electrophysiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Potassium channel and Flupirtine. His study looks at the relationship between Peripheral neuropathy and topics such as Pharmacology, which overlap with Anesthesia.
