Takeo Yoshikawa

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Gene
• Genetics
• Mutation

Takeo Yoshikawa mainly focuses on Genetics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Schizophrenia, Bipolar disorder and Psychosis. Haplotype, Genetic association, Allele frequency, Linkage disequilibrium and Gene are subfields of Genetics in which his conducts study. Takeo Yoshikawa has researched Single-nucleotide polymorphism in several fields, including Proband, Allele and Candidate gene.

His biological study deals with issues like Microsatellite, which deal with fields such as Craniofacial, Chromosome and SNP. Takeo Yoshikawa interconnects Genotyping, Genetic linkage and Genome Scan in the investigation of issues within Bipolar disorder. The concepts of his Psychosis study are interwoven with issues in Endocrinology, Mutation, Pentosidine, Alternative splicing and Internal medicine.

His most cited work include:

• Genome-wide association study identifies common variants at four loci as genetic risk factors for Parkinson's disease (1026 citations)
• Genome scan meta-analysis of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, part III: Bipolar disorder. (536 citations)
• A high-density genome scan detects evidence for a bipolar-disorder susceptibility locus on 13q32 and other potential loci on 1q32 and 18p11.2 (383 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Schizophrenia, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. Many of his studies on Genetics involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Bipolar disorder. Takeo Yoshikawa combines subjects such as Quantitative trait locus, Psychosis, Prefrontal cortex and Autism spectrum disorder with his study of Schizophrenia.

The Single-nucleotide polymorphism study combines topics in areas such as Allele frequency and Candidate gene. His work carried out in the field of Internal medicine brings together such families of science as Corpus callosum and Oncology. The various areas that Takeo Yoshikawa examines in his Endocrinology study include Cholecystokinin, Receptor, Methamphetamine and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.

He most often published in these fields:

• Genetics (63.48%)
• Schizophrenia (28.01%)
• Single-nucleotide polymorphism (27.66%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

• Genetics (63.48%)
• Internal medicine (22.70%)
• Schizophrenia (28.01%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Internal medicine, Schizophrenia, Endocrinology and Gene. His work on Genetics deals in particular with Candidate gene, Missense mutation, Allele, FABP7 and Penetrance. His studies deal with areas such as Genome-wide association study, Genetic variation and Copy-number variation as well as Candidate gene.

His Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Docosahexaenoic acid, IDH2, IDH1, Pathology and IDH3G. His Schizophrenia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Young adult, Psychosis, Case-control study, Genetic association and Autism spectrum disorder. His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Offspring, Corpus callosum and Polyunsaturated fatty acid.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• A genome-wide association study identifies two novel susceptibility loci and trans population polygenicity associated with bipolar disorder (90 citations)
• Integrative Analyses of De Novo Mutations Provide Deeper Biological Insights into Autism Spectrum Disorder. (68 citations)
• Cerebrospinal fluid metabolomics identifies a key role of isocitrate dehydrogenase in bipolar disorder: evidence in support of mitochondrial dysfunction hypothesis. (65 citations)

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

• Gene
• Genetics
• Mutation

Takeo Yoshikawa mainly investigates Genetics, Neuroscience, Gene, Autism spectrum disorder and Autism. Genome-wide association study and Genetic association are among the areas of Genetics where Takeo Yoshikawa concentrates his study. His research in Genome-wide association study intersects with topics in Polymorphism and Candidate gene.

His study in Candidate gene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Neurodevelopmental disorder, SNP array, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Comparative genomic hybridization and Genetic variation. His research investigates the connection between Genetic association and topics such as In silico that intersect with problems in Schizophrenia. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Synaptic plasticity and Induced pluripotent stem cell.
