Fellow of The Academy of Medical Sciences, United Kingdom

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Receptor

GABAA receptor, Cell biology, Receptor, Neuroscience and Neurotransmission are his primary areas of study. His study in GABAA receptor is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both gamma-Aminobutyric acid and Interleukin 10 receptor, alpha subunit. His work deals with themes such as HEK 293 cells, Endocrinology, Internal medicine and Postsynaptic potential, which intersect with Cell biology.

His Receptor research incorporates elements of Protein subunit and Phosphorylation. His Neuroscience study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Long-term potentiation, Ion channel linked receptors, Biochemistry and Glycine receptor. His studies in Neurotransmission integrate themes in fields like Synaptic plasticity, Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, AMPA receptor, Endocytosis and Sensitization.

His most cited work include:

  • Endogenous neurosteroids regulate GABA A receptors through two discrete transmembrane sites (578 citations)
  • GlyR alpha3: an essential target for spinal PGE2-mediated inflammatory pain sensitization. (481 citations)
  • HEK293 cell line: A vehicle for the expression of recombinant proteins (475 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are GABAA receptor, Receptor, Cell biology, Biophysics and Neuroscience. His GABAA receptor research focuses on GABAA-rho receptor in particular. His Receptor study contributes to a more complete understanding of Biochemistry.

His study explores the link between Cell biology and topics such as GABAB receptor that cross with problems in Endocrinology. His research in Biophysics intersects with topics in Bicuculline, Internal medicine, Patch clamp and Binding site. Trevor G. Smart interconnects Synaptic plasticity, Ion channel linked receptors, Neuroactive steroid, Neurotransmission and Long-term potentiation in the investigation of issues within Neuroscience.

He most often published in these fields:

  • GABAA receptor (54.12%)
  • Receptor (51.03%)
  • Cell biology (31.44%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • GABAA receptor (54.12%)
  • Receptor (51.03%)
  • Cell biology (31.44%)

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

Trevor G. Smart mainly investigates GABAA receptor, Receptor, Cell biology, Neuroscience and Ion channel. His GABAA receptor study is concerned with the larger field of Biochemistry. His Receptor study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Binding site.

His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Protein subunit and Glycine receptor. He has researched Neuroscience in several fields, including Agonist, Long-term potentiation and Synaptic plasticity. His Ion channel research includes themes of Gabazine, Biophysics and Stereochemistry.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Crystal structures of a GABAA-receptor chimera reveal new endogenous neurosteroid-binding sites. (90 citations)
  • The desensitization gate of inhibitory Cys-loop receptors (88 citations)
  • Radixin regulates synaptic GABAA receptor density and is essential for reversal learning and short-term memory (54 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neurotransmitter
  • Neuron

His primary scientific interests are in GABAA receptor, Neuroscience, Receptor, Cell biology and Biochemistry. The various areas that Trevor G. Smart examines in his GABAA receptor study include Endocytic recycling, Biophysics, gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Ion channel and Cys-loop receptors. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glycine receptor, Neurotransmission, Desensitization and Molecular neuroscience in addition to Ion channel.

In general Neuroscience, his work in Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Tonic is often linked to Prepulse inhibition linking many areas of study. The concepts of his Receptor study are interwoven with issues in Binding site and Channel blocker. Many of his research projects under Cell biology are closely connected to Radixin and Actin cytoskeleton with Radixin and Actin cytoskeleton, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
