What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Vincenzo Nigro focuses on Genetics, Internal medicine, Muscular dystrophy, Dystrophin and Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
His Genetics study focuses mostly on Mutation, Allele, Gene, Locus and Homeobox.
In his research on the topic of Internal medicine, Duchenne muscular dystrophy is strongly related with Endocrinology.
His work focuses on many connections between Muscular dystrophy and other disciplines, such as Surgery, that overlap with his field of interest in Creatine kinase, Nonsense mutation, Heart disease and Skeletal muscle damage.
His Dystrophin study incorporates themes from Molecular biology, TAF15 and Pathology.
His Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy research incorporates themes from Limb girdle, Posterior compartment of thigh and Anatomy.
His most cited work include:
- A vertebrate gene related to orthodenticle contains a homeodomain of the bicoid class and demarcates anterior neuroectoderm in the gastrulating mouse embryo. (570 citations)
- Autosomal recessive limbgirdle muscular dystrophy, LGMD2F, is caused by a mutation in the δ–sarcoglycan gene (393 citations)
- The human HOX gene family (263 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Gene, Pathology, Muscular dystrophy and Mutation.
Missense mutation, Exon, Exome sequencing, DNA sequencing and Phenotype are subfields of Genetics in which his conducts study.
As a part of the same scientific study, Vincenzo Nigro usually deals with the Gene, concentrating on Molecular biology and frequently concerns with Estrogen receptor.
His Pathology research includes themes of Cardiomyopathy and Skeletal muscle.
His Muscular dystrophy study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy.
He studies Gene mutation which is a part of Mutation.
He most often published in these fields:
- Genetics (41.85%)
- Gene (21.48%)
- Pathology (15.93%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?
- Genetics (41.85%)
- Gene (21.48%)
- Exome sequencing (11.48%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Gene, Exome sequencing, Missense mutation and Intellectual disability.
Genetics is represented through his Phenotype, Allele, Neurofibromatosis, Nonsense mutation and Frameshift mutation research.
His research on Gene often connects related topics like Myopathy.
His work in Exome sequencing addresses subjects such as Exon, which are connected to disciplines such as Vertebral segmentation defect, Anatomy and Spinal cord.
His work deals with themes such as Myhre syndrome, Tetralogy of Fallot and Pathology, which intersect with Missense mutation.
His study explores the link between Gene mutation and topics such as Candidate gene that cross with problems in Congenital myopathy, Bioinformatics, Muscular dystrophy and Muscle disorder.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- 229th ENMC international workshop: Limb girdle muscular dystrophies - Nomenclature and reformed classification Naarden, the Netherlands, 17-19 March 2017. (94 citations)
- ACE2 gene variants may underlie interindividual variability and susceptibility to COVID-19 in the Italian population. (74 citations)
- ACE2 variants underlie interindividual variability and susceptibility to COVID-19 in Italian population (29 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
His main research concerns Genetics, Exome sequencing, Missense mutation, Intellectual disability and Disease.
His study in Gene, Exon skipping, Phenotype, Genetic predisposition and Massive parallel sequencing falls within the category of Genetics.
In the subject of general Gene, his work in Mutation, Chromatin remodeling, Neurodevelopmental disorder and Nicolaides–Baraitser syndrome is often linked to Blepharophimosis, thereby combining diverse domains of study.
His work carried out in the field of Exome sequencing brings together such families of science as Moyamoya disease, Allele and Locus.
His research in Missense mutation intersects with topics in Internalization, Kinesin, Frameshift mutation and Arthrogryposis.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and Genetic heterogeneity.
