Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Hypothalamus
  • Endocrinology

Ronald M. Lechan mainly investigates Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and Nucleus. His study in Internal medicine concentrates on Hormone, Arcuate nucleus, Pituitary gland, Thyroid and Leptin. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Neuropeptide Y receptor and In situ hybridization.

His work carried out in the field of Hypothalamus brings together such families of science as Lipopolysaccharide and Prohormone. His studies in Thyrotropin-releasing hormone integrate themes in fields like Axon and Central nervous system. Ronald M. Lechan has included themes like Dorsal motor nucleus and Free nerve ending in his Nucleus study.

His most cited work include:

  • Conditional Deletion Of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in the Postnatal Brain Leads to Obesity and Hyperactivity (647 citations)
  • Conditional Deletion Of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in the Postnatal Brain Leads to Obesity and Hyperactivity (647 citations)
  • Leptin prevents fasting-induced suppression of prothyrotropin-releasing hormone messenger ribonucleic acid in neurons of the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus. (448 citations)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and Nucleus. His studies link Axon with Internal medicine. His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Neuropeptide, Neuropeptide Y receptor and In situ hybridization.

His Hypothalamus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Melanocortin, Neuron and Leptin. His Thyrotropin-releasing hormone study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Prohormone, Immunocytochemistry and Spinal cord. His work in the fields of Nucleus, such as Parvocellular cell and Stria terminalis, intersects with other areas such as Population.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (109.77%)
  • Endocrinology (108.14%)
  • Hypothalamus (65.80%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (109.77%)
  • Endocrinology (108.14%)
  • Hypothalamus (65.80%)

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

Ronald M. Lechan spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Neuroscience and Thyrotropin-releasing hormone. As part of his studies on Endocrinology, Ronald M. Lechan often connects relevant areas like In situ hybridization. The concepts of his Hypothalamus study are interwoven with issues in Dopamine and Gene expression.

His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential study in the realm of Neuroscience connects with subjects such as Table, TRPV3 and TRPV. Ronald M. Lechan works mostly in the field of Thyrotropin-releasing hormone, limiting it down to topics relating to Tanycyte and, in certain cases, Endocannabinoid system, as a part of the same area of interest. His Neuropeptide Y receptor research focuses on subjects like Nucleus, which are linked to c-Fos.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Central regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. (137 citations)
  • Central regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. (137 citations)
  • Central regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis under physiological and pathophysiological conditions. (137 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Gene
  • Hypothalamus

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Hormone and In situ hybridization. In his research, Ronald M. Lechan undertakes multidisciplinary study on Internal medicine and Procollagen-proline dioxygenase. He performs integrative study on Endocrinology and Glutamate decarboxylase.

His study in the field of Stria terminalis is also linked to topics like Cart. His studies in In situ hybridization integrate themes in fields like Inflammation, Forebrain and Blood–brain barrier. His research in Thyrotropin-releasing hormone intersects with topics in Tanycyte, Hypothalamic–pituitary–thyroid axis, Anterior pituitary and Thyroid.
