Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry, Lipolysis and Adipose tissue. His Lipolysis research includes themes of Energy homeostasis and White adipose tissue. His work carried out in the field of White adipose tissue brings together such families of science as Cachexia, Weight loss and Lipotoxicity.

Adipose tissue is frequently linked to Fatty acid in his study. His work deals with themes such as Catabolism, Hormone-sensitive lipase and Perilipin-1, which intersect with Adipose triglyceride lipase. The concepts of his Lipid droplet study are interwoven with issues in Perilipin and Enzyme.

His most cited work include:

  • Fat Mobilization in Adipose Tissue Is Promoted by Adipose Triglyceride Lipase (1501 citations)
  • Defective lipolysis and altered energy metabolism in mice lacking adipose triglyceride lipase (1002 citations)
  • Cellular fatty acid metabolism and cancer (823 citations)

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

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry, Adipose triglyceride lipase and Adipose tissue. His study in Lipolysis, Lipoprotein lipase, White adipose tissue, Triglyceride and Lipid metabolism is carried out as part of his Internal medicine studies. His Lipolysis research includes elements of Lipogenesis, Lipotoxicity and Monoacylglycerol lipase.

He frequently studies issues relating to Molecular biology and Biochemistry. His Adipose triglyceride lipase research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Catabolism, Endothelial dysfunction, Intracellular and Fatty acid. His Adipose tissue study combines topics in areas such as Knockout mouse, Energy homeostasis and Skeletal muscle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (55.87%)
  • Endocrinology (55.87%)
  • Biochemistry (40.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Adipose triglyceride lipase (37.37%)
  • Internal medicine (55.87%)
  • Endocrinology (55.87%)

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

Adipose triglyceride lipase, Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry and Lipolysis are his primary areas of study. His Adipose triglyceride lipase research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Insulin resistance, Catabolism, Small molecule, Cell biology and Lipid metabolism. His research investigates the connection with Internal medicine and areas like Enzyme which intersect with concerns in Intracellular.

His work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and Fatty acid. His Lipolysis study is associated with Adipose tissue. His studies in Adipose tissue integrate themes in fields like Inflammation, Knockout mouse, Gene, Cachexia and Energy homeostasis.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A switch from white to brown fat increases energy expenditure in cancer-associated cachexia. (327 citations)
  • Acetylation dynamics and stoichiometry in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. (170 citations)
  • Cytosolic lipolysis and lipophagy: two sides of the same coin. (150 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Rudolf Zechner spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Lipolysis, Adipose triglyceride lipase and White adipose tissue. His Internal medicine research includes themes of Congenital ichthyosis and Fatty acid. His Lipolysis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Cellular storage, Flux and Neuroscience.

His Adipose triglyceride lipase study incorporates themes from Endoplasmic reticulum, Insulin receptor, Insulin resistance and Cardiac muscle. White adipose tissue is the subject of his research, which falls under Adipose tissue. His Adipose tissue research is classified as research in Biochemistry.
