Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • DNA
  • Internal medicine
  • Phosphorylation

His primary areas of study are Cell biology, Transforming growth factor, Transforming growth factor beta, Cyclin D1 and Growth factor. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Cyclin-dependent kinase, Cancer research and Integrin. His work carried out in the field of Transforming growth factor brings together such families of science as Secretion, Biochemistry, Connective tissue and Monocyte.

His studies deal with areas such as Epidermal growth factor and Endocrinology as well as Growth factor. The Vascular smooth muscle research Richard K. Assoian does as part of his general Endocrinology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Platelet degranulation, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. Richard K. Assoian has included themes like Extracellular matrix and Cell growth in his Signal transduction study.

His most cited work include:

  • Transforming growth factor type beta: rapid induction of fibrosis and angiogenesis in vivo and stimulation of collagen formation in vitro. (2521 citations)
  • Human transforming growth factor-beta complementary DNA sequence and expression in normal and transformed cells. (1513 citations)
  • Transforming growth factor-beta in human platelets. Identification of a major storage site, purification, and characterization. (1334 citations)

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

Richard K. Assoian mostly deals with Cell biology, Cyclin D1, Cyclin A, Extracellular matrix and Cyclin-dependent kinase. Signal transduction is the focus of his Cell biology research. In his work, Molecular biology, Growth factor and Retinoblastoma protein is strongly intertwined with Cyclin, which is a subfield of Cyclin D1.

His Growth factor research incorporates elements of Platelet and Endocrinology. His Cyclin A research focuses on Cyclin D and how it connects with Cyclin A2 and Cyclin-dependent kinase complex. The various areas that he examines in his Cyclin-dependent kinase study include Cyclin E, Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 and Cell migration.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (63.11%)
  • Cyclin D1 (22.13%)
  • Cyclin A (22.13%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Vascular smooth muscle (16.39%)
  • Internal medicine (15.57%)
  • Cell biology (63.11%)

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

Richard K. Assoian mostly deals with Vascular smooth muscle, Internal medicine, Cell biology, Endocrinology and Progeria. His Vascular smooth muscle study which covers Biophysics that intersects with Radius of curvature. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cardiology and Biomechanics.

His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cell and Endothelium. His work on Endocrinology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Risk factor. His work in Extracellular matrix addresses subjects such as Mechanotransduction, which are connected to disciplines such as Homeostasis and Cell growth.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Three-dimensional biomimetic vascular model reveals a RhoA, Rac1, and N-cadherin balance in mural cell-endothelial cell-regulated barrier function (56 citations)
  • Gaussian Curvature Directs Stress Fiber Orientation and Cell Migration (41 citations)
  • Self-sorting of nonmuscle myosins IIA and IIB polarizes the cytoskeleton and modulates cell motility. (41 citations)

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

  • DNA
  • Internal medicine
  • Phosphorylation

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Vascular smooth muscle, Stress, Stress fiber and Bending. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Cadherin, Cytoskeleton and Cell polarity. His study on Vascular smooth muscle is covered under Endocrinology.

His Stress research incorporates Gaussian curvature, Surface, Leading edge, Spherical cap and Orientation. Richard K. Assoian combines subjects such as Myocyte, Curvature, Cell type and Optics with his study of Stress fiber. Richard K. Assoian frequently studies issues relating to Biophysics and Bending.
