Thomas Wieland mainly investigates Cell biology, Gene knockdown, Downregulation and upregulation, Nucleoside Diphosphate Kinase B and Internal medicine. The study incorporates disciplines such as Receptor, Leukemia and Caspase 1 in addition to Cell biology. Thomas Wieland has researched Receptor in several fields, including Secretion and Cell fractionation.

His work is dedicated to discovering how Downregulation and upregulation, Nucleoside-diphosphate kinase are connected with Glutamine, Phosphorylation, Molecular biology, Nucleoside triphosphate and Biosynthesis and other disciplines. The Internal medicine study combines topics in areas such as Induced pluripotent stem cell and Cardiology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Heterotrimeric G protein, G protein, Molecular Pharmacology and Neuroscience.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A deep proteome and transcriptome abundance atlas of 29 healthy human tissues (164 citations)
  • Quantification and discovery of sequence determinants of protein-per-mRNA amount in 29 human tissues (28 citations)
  • A cellular model of Brugada syndrome with SCN10A variants using human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. (10 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Mutation

Thomas Wieland mostly deals with Transcriptome, Computational biology, Induced pluripotent stem cell, Ajmaline and Internal medicine. His Transcriptome study incorporates themes from Proteomics, Protein abundance, Codon usage bias, Messenger RNA and Sequence. His study in Computational biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Proteome, RNA-Seq, Human proteins, Genome and Human proteome project.

His studies in Induced pluripotent stem cell integrate themes in fields like Brugada syndrome, Enhancer, Stem cell, Pharmacology and Cellular model. His research in Ajmaline intersects with topics in Sodium channel, Phenotype, Amiodarone, Flecainide and Mexiletine. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Internal medicine, focusing on Cardiology and, on occasion, Channel blocker.
