Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Wnt signaling pathway
  • Cancer

Yingzi Yang mostly deals with Cell biology, Wnt signaling pathway, Chondrocyte, Internal medicine and Endocrinology. Cell biology is often connected to Cell polarity in his work. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Indian hedgehog and Endochondral ossification.

His study looks at the intersection of Indian hedgehog and topics like Cellular differentiation with Cartilage, Stimulation and Downregulation and upregulation. His Endochondral ossification research focuses on Smoothened and how it relates to Patched and Cyclopamine. His research in Sonic hedgehog tackles topics such as Anatomy which are related to areas like Zone of polarizing activity, Mesenchyme and Mammalian embryology.

His most cited work include:

  • Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Mesenchymal Progenitors Controls Osteoblast and Chondrocyte Differentiation during Vertebrate Skeletogenesis (1271 citations)
  • Wnt-5a inhibits the canonical Wnt pathway by promoting GSK-3–independent β-catenin degradation (646 citations)
  • Genetic manipulation of hedgehog signaling in the endochondral skeleton reveals a direct role in the regulation of chondrocyte proliferation. (535 citations)

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

Yingzi Yang focuses on Cell biology, Wnt signaling pathway, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Signal transduction. His studies deal with areas such as Endochondral ossification, Anatomy and Cell polarity as well as Cell biology. Yingzi Yang interconnects Ossification, Chondrocyte and Intramembranous ossification in the investigation of issues within Endochondral ossification.

Yingzi Yang combines subjects such as Cancer research and Cell signaling with his study of Wnt signaling pathway. His Internal medicine research integrates issues from Indian hedgehog and Cellular differentiation. Yingzi Yang has included themes like HEK 293 cells, Transcription factor, Kinase and Stem cell in his Signal transduction study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (75.00%)
  • Wnt signaling pathway (44.23%)
  • Internal medicine (23.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cell biology (75.00%)
  • Wnt signaling pathway (44.23%)
  • Hippo signaling (14.42%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Wnt signaling pathway, Hippo signaling, Cancer research and Transcription factor. His work on Phosphorylation as part of general Cell biology research is frequently linked to PIEZO1, bridging the gap between disciplines. Yingzi Yang has researched Wnt signaling pathway in several fields, including Chondrogenesis, Cartilage, Body Patterning, GNAS complex locus and Hedgehog signaling pathway.

His Chondrogenesis research incorporates themes from Indian hedgehog, Chondrocyte and Smoothened. His research in Cancer research intersects with topics in ALDH2, Cirrhosis, Metastasis and Immunotherapy. His Transcription factor research includes elements of Signal transduction, Kinase and Pathology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Targeting signalling pathways and the immune microenvironment of cancer stem cells - a clinical update. (78 citations)
  • Hepatic Hippo signaling inhibits protumoural microenvironment to suppress hepatocellular carcinoma (55 citations)
  • Hepatic Hippo signaling inhibits protumoural microenvironment to suppress hepatocellular carcinoma (55 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Wnt signaling pathway
  • Cancer

His primary scientific interests are in Cancer research, Cell biology, Wnt signaling pathway, Transcription factor and Hippo signaling. His Cancer research research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cancer, Cancer stem cell, Progenitor cell, Immune system and Hedgehog signaling pathway. In the field of Cell biology, his study on LRP6 overlaps with subjects such as Gs alpha subunit.

His Wnt signaling pathway study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Chondrogenesis, Chondrocyte, Cartilage, Indian hedgehog and Smoothened. The concepts of his Transcription factor study are interwoven with issues in Hepatocyte growth factor, HCCS, Downregulation and upregulation, MST1 and Pathology. His research integrates issues of Mechanotransduction, Extracellular matrix and NFAT in his study of Hippo signaling.
