Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid

Taina Pihlajaniemi spends much of her time researching Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Collagen Type XVIII, Type XVIII collagen and Endostatin. Her Molecular biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Amino acid, Protein primary structure, Complementary DNA, Gene and Signal peptide. Her work in Collagen Type XVIII addresses issues such as Extracellular matrix, which are connected to fields such as In situ hybridization, Glycosaminoglycan, Matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor and Integrin.

Her study looks at the intersection of Type XVIII collagen and topics like Basement membrane with Knobloch syndrome, Collagen, type I, alpha 1, Ectodomain and Binding site. Her Endostatin study incorporates themes from Kidney, Immunology, Anatomy and Cell biology. Her study in Angiogenesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endothelial stem cell, Pathology, Matrix metalloproteinase and Lymphangiogenesis.

Her most cited work include:

  • VEGFR-3 and Its Ligand VEGF-C Are Associated with Angiogenesis in Breast Cancer (523 citations)
  • Interaction of endostatin with integrins implicated in angiogenesis. (404 citations)
  • Molecular cloning of the beta-subunit of human prolyl 4-hydroxylase. This subunit and protein disulphide isomerase are products of the same gene. (365 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Cell biology, Pathology and Gene. The concepts of her Molecular biology study are interwoven with issues in Type XVIII collagen, Alternative splicing, Exon, Complementary DNA and Peptide sequence. Her Cell biology research includes themes of Cell adhesion and Transmembrane protein.

Her Pathology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Collagen Type XVIII and Endostatin. Her Endostatin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Immunology and Anatomy, Basement membrane. Her study in Amino acid is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Protein primary structure and Hydroxylation.

  • Cancer research (7.97%)

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

Taina Pihlajaniemi spends much of her time researching Cell biology, Extracellular matrix, Cancer research, Pathology and Endostatin. Her work deals with themes such as Synapse and Ectodomain, which intersect with Cell biology. Her research in the fields of Angiogenesis overlaps with other disciplines such as Complement factor B.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Laminin, Downregulation and upregulation and Collagen Type XVIII. Her studies in Endostatin integrate themes in fields like Proteoglycan, Immunology, Basement membrane, Molecular biology and Colorectal cancer. The various areas that she examines in her Molecular biology study include Extracellular and Type XVIII collagen.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Redox-fibrosis: Impact of TGFβ1 on ROS generators, mediators and functional consequences. (109 citations)
  • GATA4-dependent organ-specific endothelial differentiation controls liver development and embryonic hematopoiesis (51 citations)
  • Collagen XVIII in tissue homeostasis and dysregulation - Lessons learned from model organisms and human patients. (41 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Cancer

Her primary areas of study are Cell biology, Cancer research, Fibrosis, Extracellular matrix and Pathology. Her work in the fields of Cell biology, such as Basement membrane, intersects with other areas such as ADP-ribosylation. As part of one scientific family, Taina Pihlajaniemi deals mainly with the area of Basement membrane, narrowing it down to issues related to the Biochemistry, and often Glucose uptake.

Taina Pihlajaniemi combines subjects such as Skin cancer, Metastasis, Tenascin C, Tumor progression and Breast cancer with her study of Cancer research. Taina Pihlajaniemi studied Extracellular matrix and Cancer that intersect with Tissue culture, Gene expression, Druggability and Gene. Taina Pihlajaniemi has included themes like Carcinogenesis and Cell culture in her Pathology study.
