Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

Rafael A. Fissore mostly deals with Cell biology, Sperm, Oocyte activation, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Receptor and Gamete, Human fertilization. Rafael A. Fissore has researched Sperm in several fields, including Phospholipase, Calcium, Phospholipase C and Inositol.

His Calcium study incorporates themes from Intracellular and Incubation. The concepts of his Oocyte activation study are interwoven with issues in Andrology and Male infertility. In his study, Kinase is inextricably linked to Oocyte, which falls within the broad field of Endocrinology.

His most cited work include:

  • Egg-to-embryo transition is driven by differential responses to Ca(2+) oscillation number. (338 citations)
  • Human sperm devoid of PLC, zeta 1 fail to induce Ca2+ release and are unable to initiate the first step of embryo development (220 citations)
  • Reduced amounts and abnormal forms of phospholipase C zeta (PLCzeta) in spermatozoa from infertile men. (185 citations)

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

Rafael A. Fissore mainly investigates Cell biology, Oocyte activation, Sperm, Oocyte and Human fertilization. His Cell biology research includes elements of Receptor, Inositol and Calcium. His studies in Oocyte activation integrate themes in fields like Molecular biology, Intracytoplasmic sperm injection, Phospholipase C and Calcium signaling.

Rafael A. Fissore usually deals with Sperm and limits it to topics linked to Intracellular and Botany. He works mostly in the field of Oocyte, limiting it down to concerns involving Endocrinology and, occasionally, Phospholipase. His Human fertilization research incorporates themes from Zygote and Meiosis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (61.58%)
  • Oocyte activation (42.37%)
  • Sperm (38.98%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2020)?

  • Cell biology (61.58%)
  • Oocyte activation (42.37%)
  • Sperm (38.98%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Oocyte activation, Sperm, Human fertilization and Oocyte. His Calcium research extends to Cell biology, which is thematically connected. Rafael A. Fissore interconnects Endocrinology, Extracellular, Internal medicine, Transient receptor potential channel and Kinase in the investigation of issues within Oocyte activation.

The Sperm study combines topics in areas such as Polyspermy, Intracytoplasmic sperm injection, In vitro fertilisation and Phospholipase C. His In vitro fertilisation study combines topics in areas such as Ionophore, Calcium in biology and Voltage-dependent calcium channel. He has included themes like Offspring, Andrology, Bubalus and Fertilisation in his Human fertilization study.

Between 2013 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Fertilization in Mammals (166 citations)
  • Homozygous mutation of PLCZ1 leads to defective human oocyte activation and infertility that is not rescued by the WW-binding protein PAWP (68 citations)
  • PLCζ is the physiological trigger of the Ca2+ oscillations that induce embryogenesis in mammals but conception can occur in its absence. (66 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Sperm, Oocyte activation, Human fertilization and Embryo. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Integral membrane protein and Tetratricopeptide. His study focuses on the intersection of Sperm and fields such as In vitro fertilisation with connections in the field of Ionophore, Intracellular and Fertilisation.

His Oocyte activation research is included under the broader classification of Oocyte. The various areas that Rafael A. Fissore examines in his Oocyte study include Cytoplasm, Calcium, Actin cytoskeleton, Anatomy and Stimulation. His Human fertilization study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Offspring and Andrology.
