Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology

Sylvie Jégou focuses on Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Neuropeptide and Molecular biology. Her Internal medicine study focuses mostly on Pituitary gland, Stimulation, Melanocyte-stimulating hormone, Proopiomelanocortin and Adrenocorticotropic hormone. Her Endocrinology study frequently links to other fields, such as Nucleus.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Hormone and GRENOUILLE in addition to Hypothalamus. Her Molecular biology research integrates issues from Beta-2 microglobulin, In situ hybridization, Inflammation, Downregulation and upregulation and Central nervous system. Her In situ hybridization study incorporates themes from Cloning and Urotensin-II, Urotensins, Urotensin-II receptor.

Her most cited work include:

  • Cloning of the cDNA encoding the urotensin II precursor in frog and human reveals intense expression of the urotensin II gene in motoneurons of the spinal cord (353 citations)
  • Cloning, sequence analysis and tissue distribution of the mouse and rat urotensin II precursors (171 citations)
  • Localization and identification of Neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like immunoreactivity in the frog brain (143 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Hypothalamus, Neuropeptide and Receptor. Her Internal medicine study frequently intersects with other fields, such as In situ hybridization. Her In situ hybridization study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Complementary DNA, Molecular biology and Preoptic area.

Her work deals with themes such as In vitro and Neuropeptide Y receptor, which intersect with Endocrinology. The concepts of her Hypothalamus study are interwoven with issues in Agonist, GRENOUILLE, Nucleus and Peptide hormone. Within one scientific family, Sylvie Jégou focuses on topics pertaining to Cell biology under Central nervous system, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Rana ridibunda.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (71.01%)
  • Endocrinology (71.01%)
  • Hypothalamus (24.64%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2006-2020)?

  • Internal medicine (71.01%)
  • Endocrinology (71.01%)
  • Neuroscience (6.52%)

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

Sylvie Jégou spends much of her time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neuroscience, Pharmacology and Glutamate receptor. Her Internal medicine research includes elements of Fetal alcohol syndrome and In situ hybridization. Her Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Ex vivo and Riboprobe.

Her studies deal with areas such as Melanocortins and Cell biology as well as Neuroscience. Her Neuroprotection study in the realm of Pharmacology connects with subjects such as Remifentanil. Her Glutamate receptor course of study focuses on GABAergic and gamma-Aminobutyric acid.

Between 2006 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide inhibits food intake in mice through activation of the hypothalamic melanocortin system. (79 citations)
  • Distribution of 26RFa binding sites and GPR103 mRNA in the central nervous system of the rat. (58 citations)
  • Prenatal alcohol exposure affects vasculature development in the neonatal brain. (51 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Internal medicine
  • Endocrinology

Her primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Neuropeptide, Neuroscience and Glutamate receptor. Her Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of In situ hybridization and Gene isoform. Skeletal muscle is the focus of her Endocrinology research.

Her work is dedicated to discovering how Neuropeptide, Proopiomelanocortin are connected with Neuropeptide Y receptor, Neuropeptide Y receptor Y2, Melanocortin and Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide and other disciplines. Her work in the fields of Medulla oblongata, Solitary tract, Brainstem and Central nervous system overlaps with other areas such as Orphan receptor. Her Glutamate receptor research incorporates themes from gamma-Aminobutyric acid, GABAergic, Interneuron and Pharmacology.
