Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Dipeptidyl peptidase, Biochemistry and Immunology. His Internal medicine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Kynurenine pathway and Kynurenine. His work carried out in the field of Endocrinology brings together such families of science as Tryptophan, Immune system and Serotonin.

His Dipeptidyl peptidase research incorporates themes from Vildagliptin, Protease, Antigen, In vivo and Dipeptidyl peptidase-4. His research in Biochemistry tackles topics such as Molecular biology which are related to areas like CCL20, CCL15, CCL13 and CXCL2. The Haptoglobin study which covers Acute-phase protein that intersects with Alpha.

His most cited work include:

  • Dipeptidyl-peptidase IV from bench to bedside: an update on structural properties, functions, and clinical aspects of the enzyme DPP IV. (697 citations)
  • The effects of psychological stress on humans: increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and a Th1-like response in stress-induced anxiety (612 citations)
  • CD26, let it cut or cut it down (421 citations)

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

Simon Scharpé spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry, Dipeptidyl peptidase and Enzyme. His research in Internal medicine intersects with topics in Immunology and Prolyl endopeptidase. His Endocrinology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Tryptophan, Immune system, Acute-phase protein and Serotonin.

In his study, Chemokine is inextricably linked to Molecular biology, which falls within the broad field of Biochemistry. He has included themes like Dipeptide, Serine, In vivo and Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 in his Dipeptidyl peptidase study. His Enzyme research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Chromatography, Angiotensin-converting enzyme and Stereochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (40.87%)
  • Endocrinology (38.89%)
  • Biochemistry (29.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2013)?

  • Internal medicine (40.87%)
  • Endocrinology (38.89%)
  • Biochemistry (29.37%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry, Dipeptidyl peptidase and Dipeptidyl peptidase-4. He performs integrative study on Internal medicine and Placebo. His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Kynurenic acid, Vasoactive intestinal peptide and Neuroprotection.

His Dipeptidyl peptidase study incorporates themes from Immunohistochemistry, Vildagliptin, Molecular mass, Molecular biology and Pharmacology. The Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 study combines topics in areas such as U937 cell, Recombinant DNA, Size-exclusion chromatography, Gene silencing and In vivo. His study looks at the relationship between Enzyme and fields such as Dipeptidyl peptidase 8, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

Between 2006 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • Kynurenine pathway in major depression: evidence of impaired neuroprotection. (393 citations)
  • Cytokine changes and tryptophan metabolites in medication-naïve and medication-free schizophrenic patients. (110 citations)
  • Dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibition improves cardiorenal function in overpacing-induced heart failure. (86 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Internal medicine
  • Gene

Simon Scharpé mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Biochemistry, Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 and Kynurenine. His Cardiology research extends to the thematically linked field of Internal medicine. Simon Scharpé combines topics linked to Hemodynamics with his work on Endocrinology.

Simon Scharpé usually deals with Biochemistry and limits it to topics linked to Function and In vivo, Gel electrophoresis, Enzyme, Fibril and Enzyme assay. His Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 research integrates issues from U937 cell, Cancer research, Protease, Fibroblast activation protein, alpha and Dipeptidyl peptidase. His Kynurenine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Anesthesia, Kynurenic acid and Neuroprotection.
