Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Cell biology, Molecular biology, Brevican, Neurocan and Biochemistry. His Cell biology research includes elements of Dendritic spine, Morphogenesis and Neuroscience. His work is dedicated to discovering how Molecular biology, Proteoglycan are connected with Inhibitory postsynaptic potential and Transmembrane protein and other disciplines.

His work deals with themes such as Neurite and Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, Lectican, which intersect with Brevican. In general Biochemistry study, his work on Transmembrane domain, HAS1 and Hyaluronan synthase often relates to the realm of Hyaluronan Synthase 2, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His work in Axon guidance addresses subjects such as Mammalian brain, which are connected to disciplines such as Heparan sulfate.

His most cited work include:

  • Ca2+-induced apoptosis through calcineurin dephosphorylation of BAD. (1047 citations)
  • Control of hippocampal dendritic spine morphology through ephrin-A3/EphA4 signaling. (431 citations)
  • NG2 Is a Major Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan Produced after Spinal Cord Injury and Is Expressed by Macrophages and Oligodendrocyte Progenitors (426 citations)

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

His main research concerns Cell biology, Heparan sulfate, Molecular biology, Biochemistry and Extracellular matrix. Perlecan is the focus of his Cell biology research. His Heparan sulfate research also works with subjects such as

  • Axon guidance that intertwine with fields like Morphogen,
  • Neuroscience that connect with fields like Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular receptor.

His Molecular biology research includes themes of Proteoglycan and Cell culture. His Extracellular matrix research focuses on Cell migration and how it relates to Integrin and Cell adhesion. The various areas that he examines in his Brevican study include Neurite, Neurocan and Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (53.33%)
  • Heparan sulfate (31.11%)
  • Molecular biology (16.67%)

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

  • Cell biology (53.33%)
  • Extracellular matrix (14.44%)
  • Extracellular (6.67%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cell biology, Extracellular matrix, Extracellular, Heparan sulfate and Embryoid body. His work on Axon as part of general Cell biology study is frequently linked to CCL19, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cell migration, Focal adhesion, Tissue homeostasis, Integrin and Cell adhesion.

His Extracellular study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Catabolism, Cell and Glycosaminoglycan. His Heparan sulfate research incorporates themes from Progenitor cell, Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva, Osteochondroma and Cancer research. His Embryoid body research covers fields of interest such as Embryonic stem cell, Versican, Proteoglycan, Yolk sac and Vasculogenesis.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • TMEM2: A missing link in hyaluronan catabolism identified? (27 citations)
  • Palovarotene Inhibits Osteochondroma Formation in a Mouse Model of Multiple Hereditary Exostoses. (17 citations)
  • Osteoblastic heparan sulfate regulates osteoprotegerin function and bone mass (11 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Heparan sulfate, Cell, Bone morphogenetic protein, Palovarotene and Multiple osteochondroma. His Heparan sulfate research is classified as research in Internal medicine. Cell is a primary field of his research addressed under Biochemistry.

The various areas that he examines in his Bone morphogenetic protein study include Progenitor cell, Cancer research, Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva and Osteochondroma. His Internalization research incorporates elements of Catabolism and Glycosaminoglycan.
