Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Biochemistry
  • Internal medicine

Richard P. Bunge mostly deals with Cell biology, Schwann cell, Myelin, Schwann cell proliferation and Anatomy. The various areas that Richard P. Bunge examines in his Cell biology study include Ganglion, Neurite, Immunology and Tissue culture. His study in Schwann cell is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Laminin, Basal lamina and Neuroscience, Neuron.

His work carried out in the field of Schwann cell proliferation brings together such families of science as Cell and Mesaxon. His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biophysics and Central nervous system. The Axon study combines topics in areas such as Synaptic vesicle and Neuroglia.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence that sensory axons are mitogenic for Schwann cells (375 citations)
  • Studies of Schwann cell proliferation. I. An analysis in tissue culture of proliferation during development, Wallerian degeneration, and direct injury. (353 citations)
  • In vivo and in vitro observations on laminin production by Schwann cells (340 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Schwann cell, Neuroscience, Myelin and Tissue culture. His Cell biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cell, Neurite and Dorsal root ganglion. Richard P. Bunge combines subjects such as Basal lamina, Laminin, Extracellular matrix and Neuroglia with his study of Schwann cell.

His Neuroscience study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cell culture and Cell type. Richard P. Bunge has included themes like Peripheral nervous system and Immunology in his Myelin study. Richard P. Bunge works mostly in the field of Tissue culture, limiting it down to topics relating to Superior cervical ganglion and, in certain cases, Neuron, Cervical ganglia, Dopamine and Growth cone.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (54.87%)
  • Schwann cell (44.25%)
  • Neuroscience (28.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1988-2006)?

  • Schwann cell (44.25%)
  • Cell biology (54.87%)
  • Basal lamina (19.47%)

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

Richard P. Bunge mainly investigates Schwann cell, Cell biology, Basal lamina, Myelin and Axon. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Neuroscience, Dorsal root ganglion, Spinal cord and Neuroglia. His Neuroscience study deals with Cell culture intersecting with Wallerian degeneration.

His Cell biology research focuses on subjects like Mesaxon, which are linked to Schwann cell differentiation. His study focuses on the intersection of Basal lamina and fields such as Laminin with connections in the field of Cell adhesion molecule and Basement membrane. His work on Myelin-associated glycoprotein and Galactocerebroside as part of general Myelin study is frequently linked to Ascorbic acid, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 1988 and 2006, his most popular works were:

  • Schwann cells genetically modified to secrete human BDNF promote enhanced axonal regrowth across transected adult rat spinal cord (285 citations)
  • Differentiation of axon-related Schwann cells in vitro: II. Control of myelin formation by basal lamina (189 citations)
  • INHIBITION OF SCHWANN CELL MYELINATION IN VITRO BY ANTIBODY TO THE L1 ADHESION MOLECULE (157 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Biochemistry
  • Internal medicine

His primary areas of study are Schwann cell, Axon, Cell biology, Myelin and Basal lamina. His Schwann cell study is related to the wider topic of Anatomy. His Anatomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endocrinology, Spinal cord injury and Brainstem.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Compact myelin and Myelinogenesis in addition to Cell nucleus. His work deals with themes such as Immunology, Cell adhesion molecule and Neuroglia, which intersect with Galactocerebroside. His Basement membrane research includes themes of Type IV collagen and Biochemistry.
