Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Neuron
  • Enzyme
  • Neurotransmitter

Yu Tian Wang spends much of his time researching Neuroscience, Synaptic plasticity, Long-term depression, Cell biology and AMPA receptor. His research in Neuroscience intersects with topics in NMDA receptor, Receptor, Postsynaptic potential and Anatomy. His Synaptic plasticity research incorporates elements of Ion channel linked receptors, Long-term potentiation and Neurotransmission.

His Long-term depression research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Dextroamphetamine, Nucleus accumbens, Metaplasticity and Ventral tegmental area. In Cell biology, he works on issues like Glutamate receptor, which are connected to Glycine. His AMPA receptor study deals with Endocytosis intersecting with Internalization.

His most cited work include:

  • Role of NMDA Receptor Subtypes in Governing the Direction of Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity (946 citations)
  • Treatment of Ischemic Brain Damage by Perturbing NMDA Receptor- PSD-95 Protein Interactions (835 citations)
  • Receptor trafficking and synaptic plasticity (831 citations)

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

Yu Tian Wang mainly focuses on Neuroscience, Synaptic plasticity, NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor and Cell biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Glutamate receptor, Long-term potentiation, Long-term depression and Neurotransmission. Synaptic plasticity and Synapse are commonly linked in his work.

His NMDA receptor research focuses on Neuroprotection and how it connects with Neurotoxicity. His research investigates the connection between AMPA receptor and topics such as Postsynaptic potential that intersect with problems in Excitatory postsynaptic potential. The various areas that he examines in his Cell biology study include Biochemistry, Neurotransmitter receptor and Postsynaptic density.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Neuroscience (73.91%)
  • Synaptic plasticity (40.43%)
  • NMDA receptor (36.09%)

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

  • Neuroscience (73.91%)
  • Synaptic plasticity (40.43%)
  • Long-term potentiation (33.04%)

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

Yu Tian Wang mainly investigates Neuroscience, Synaptic plasticity, Long-term potentiation, Hippocampal formation and AMPA receptor. His Neuroscience research includes themes of NMDA receptor, Neurotransmission and Hippocampal synaptic plasticity. The concepts of his Synaptic plasticity study are interwoven with issues in Antidepressant and Excitatory postsynaptic potential.

Much of his study explores Long-term potentiation relationship to Cell biology. His work deals with themes such as TRPV1, Endocytosis, Mast cell and Agonist, which intersect with Hippocampal formation. Yu Tian Wang studies AMPA receptor, namely Long-term depression.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Synaptotagmin-3 drives AMPA receptor endocytosis, depression of synapse strength, and forgetting (47 citations)
  • Neuroprotective Effects of Ginsenoside Rf on Amyloid-β-Induced Neurotoxicity in vitro and in vivo (19 citations)
  • Neuroprotective Effects of Ginsenoside Rf on Amyloid-β-Induced Neurotoxicity in vitro and in vivo (19 citations)

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

  • Neuron
  • Enzyme
  • Neurotransmitter

Yu Tian Wang focuses on Neuroscience, Long-term potentiation, Synaptic plasticity, Neuroprotection and AMPA receptor. His Inhibitory postsynaptic potential, Transcranial magnetic stimulation, Neurochemical, Prefrontal cortex and Major depressive disorder investigations are all subjects of Neuroscience research. Yu Tian Wang has researched Long-term potentiation in several fields, including Antidepressant, Endocytic cycle, Forgetting and Long-Term Synaptic Depression.

The subject of his Synaptic plasticity research is within the realm of Receptor. His work carried out in the field of Neuroprotection brings together such families of science as Cell biology, Kinase, Protein kinase A, MAPK/ERK pathway and Phosphatase. His research integrates issues of Postsynaptic potential, Agonist, TRPV1, Hippocampal formation and Endocytosis in his study of AMPA receptor.
