Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Biochemistry

Vladimir Parpura mainly focuses on Cell biology, Neuroscience, Glutamate receptor, Astrocyte and Neuroglia. His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Exocytosis, Synapse and Lipid metabolism. His research integrates issues of Synaptic plasticity, Neurodegeneration and Neurotransmission in his study of Neuroscience.

The Glutamate receptor study combines topics in areas such as Glutamic acid and Syntaxin. He combines subjects such as Astrogliosis, Ion channel, Metabotropic glutamate receptor and Pathology with his study of Astrocyte. His study in Neuroglia is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Enteric nervous system, Gastrointestinal function, Neuron and Anatomy.

His most cited work include:

  • Tripartite synapses : Glia, the unacknowledged partner (1685 citations)
  • Glutamate-mediated astrocyte-neuron signalling. (1437 citations)
  • Chemically Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes as Substrates for Neuronal Growth. (540 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Neuroscience, Cell biology, Glutamate receptor, Astrocyte and Exocytosis. His Neuroscience research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Neurodegeneration, Disease and Homeostasis. His study brings together the fields of Secretion and Cell biology.

His Glutamate receptor research incorporates elements of Neurotransmitter and Glutamic acid. His Astrocyte course of study focuses on Neurotransmission and Synaptic plasticity. His Exocytosis research incorporates themes from Vesicle, Vesicular transport protein and Synaptic vesicle.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (48.15%)
  • Cell biology (56.30%)
  • Glutamate receptor (28.15%)

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

  • Neuroscience (48.15%)
  • Cell biology (56.30%)
  • Neuroglia (19.63%)

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

His main research concerns Neuroscience, Cell biology, Neuroglia, Disease and Neurodegeneration. His is doing research in Astrocyte and Central nervous system, both of which are found in Neuroscience. His Astrocyte study also includes

  • Astrogliosis which connect with Calcium signaling and Pathology,
  • Neurotransmission, Glutamate homeostasis and Ion channel most often made with reference to Neurotransmitter receptor.

The various areas that Vladimir Parpura examines in his Cell biology study include Secretion, Exocytosis, Vesicle and Secretory Vesicle. His work carried out in the field of Neuroglia brings together such families of science as Cell type and Nervous system. Vladimir Parpura usually deals with Homeostasis and limits it to topics linked to Glutamate receptor and Adenosine triphosphate.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Astrocytes: a central element in neurological diseases (350 citations)
  • Astrocytes in physiological aging and Alzheimer's disease. (194 citations)
  • Astrocytes as secretory cells of the central nervous system: idiosyncrasies of vesicular secretion. (186 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Neuron
  • Biochemistry

His scientific interests lie mostly in Neuroscience, Astrocyte, Cell biology, Disease and Neurodegeneration. His Neuroscience study combines topics in areas such as Aquaporin 4, Alexander disease and Homeostasis. Vladimir Parpura interconnects Glutamate receptor, Cell, Glioblastoma and Brain pathologies in the investigation of issues within Homeostasis.

His research in Astrocyte intersects with topics in Neuroglia, Extracellular, Astrogliosis, Pathology and Reperfusion injury. His Cell biology research includes themes of Secretion, Exocytosis and Vesicle. His Neurodegeneration research integrates issues from Central nervous system and Atrophy.
