Timeline continued SEARCH timeline below or BROWSE by scrolling horizontally in your browser YEAR Francis Peyton Rous discovers a virus that can cause cancer in chickens. In 1909, a farmer brought Rous a hen that had a breast tumor. Rous performed an autopsy, extracted tumor cells and injected them into other hens, which subsequently developed tumors. This is the first experimental proof of an infectious etiologic agent of cancer. Rous is awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology in 1966. Paul Ehrlich announces the discovery of an effective cure (Salvarsan) for syphilis, the first specific chemotherapeutic agent for a bacterial disease. Ehrlich was seeking an arsenic derivative and finally the 606th compound worked. He brought news of the treatment to London, where Alexander Fleming became one of the few physicians to administer it. Frederick Twort Albert Jan Kluyver and Hendrick Jean Louis Donker propose a universal model for metabolic events in cells based on a transfer of hydrogen atoms. The model applies to aerobic and anaerobic organisms.

Beijerinck nannte den Erreger ein "filtrierbares Virus", wobei virus einfach „Gift“ bedeutete. Das kennzeichnete den Anfang der Virusforschung, der Virologie. Auch von anderen Krankheiten wurde nachgewiesen, dass sie durch filtrierbare Virusarten verursacht wurden. Der der englische Bakteriologe Frederick William Twort (1877-1950) kanadische Bakteriologe Felix Hubert d'Herell (1873-1949) Er nannte Bakterien befallende Virusarten „Bakteriophagen“ (Bakterienfresser). amerikanische Arzt Francis Peyton Rous (1879-1970) amerikanischen Arzt Ernest William Coodpasture (1886-1960) Der amerikanische Mikrobiologe John Franklin Enders (1897-1985) versuchte im Jahre 1948 mit den beiden jungen Mitarbeitern Thomas Huckle Weller (geb. 1915) und Frederick Chapman Robbins (geb. 1916) polnisch-amerikanische Mikrobiologe Albert Bruce Sabin (1906-1993) Welt der Biologie

Vol. 1° - VII.4. I RETROVIRUS Virus è un vocabolo latino simile al sanscrito visha : ambedue significano veleno I virus sono piccolissimi parassiti intracellulari obbligati dotati di un solo tipo di acido nucleico - il core , costituito da DNA oppure da RNA - racchiuso in una struttura denominata capside , la quale è composta da proteine dette capsomeri e che talora sono ricoperte da un altro involucro, il pericapside Il metabolismo di un virus dipende completamente dall’ospite: un vegetale, un animale, nonché un protista , cioè un organismo unicellulare che può essere un batterio, un fungo, un’alga, un protozoo. Fig. VII. 2 - Retrovirus : virus dell’HIV in sezione. La parte centrale del virus contiene l’RNA e l’enzima trascrittasi inversa che catalizza la trascrizione dell’RNA in DNA, che entra nel nucleo della cellula infettata. La maggior parte degli studiosi ritiene che questo virus sia antico quanto l’uomo e che sia originario dell’Africa centrale, inizialmente presente in alcune scimmie. Da millenni l'uomo e il pollo vivono in simbiosi ed è difficile asserire chi dei due ha tratto maggiori vantaggi da tale convivenza. Sta di fatto che nel 1910 un agricoltore del nord dello stato di New York si recò in visita a Peyton Rous, al Rockefeller Institute di New York, e gli mostrò una gallina Plymouth Rock con un voluminoso tumore solido a carico del tessuto connettivo, un sarcoma o fibrosarcoma. Rous scoprì che inoculando alcune di quelle cellule tumorali in un soggetto Plymouth Rock sano si induceva la formazione di un tumore dello stesso tipo di quello presente nel pollo malato. Dimostrò inoltre che era possibile trasmettere tale tumore anche iniettando una soluzione filtrata - priva perciò di cellule e batteri - ottenuta da estratti della neoplasia. Il

PREV. GOOD STUFF NEW STUFF SEARCH RIDICULED DISCOVERERS, VINDICATED MAVERICKS 2002 William Beaty Weird science versus revolutionary science While it's true that at least 99% of fringe science announcements are just as bogus as they seem, we cannot dismiss every one of them without any investigation. If we do, then we'll certainly take our place among the ranks of scoffers who dismissed (or even blocked) a large number of major scientific discoveries through history. Beware! Many apparantly-sane discoveries such as powered flight and drifting continents appear normal and acceptable to us only because we have such powerful HINDsight. These same advancements seemed obviously wrong during the times they were first discovered. In science, pursuing revolutionary advancements can be like searching for diamonds hidden in sewage. It's a shame that the realms of questionable ideas contain "diamonds" of great value. It makes judging crazy theories much more difficult. If crazy discoveries were *always* bogus, then we'd have good reason to automatically reject them. However, since the "diamonds" exist, we must never automatically discard ideas and observations which seem appear to be part of the "sewage." Sometimes the "obvious" craziness turns out to be a genuine cutting edge discovery. When a true genius appears in this world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.

80. USRF - Charles B. Huggins, M.D. (1901-1997) In 1966, Dr. Huggins received the Nobel Prize (shared with virologist peyton rous)for his research on the relationship between hormones and prostate cancer. http://www.usrf.org/news/010308-huggins.html

Charles B. Huggins, M.D. Nobel Prize winner Charles Brenton Huggins, M.D., the William B. Ogden Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus of Surgery at the University of Chicago Medical Center, died at his Hyde Park home on January 12, 1997. The last survivor of the original eight faculty members of the medical school, Dr. Huggins was 95 years old. A plaque in his office, posted above his desk, carried his motto: "Discovery is our business." The death was reported by his daughter Emily Huggins Fine. Dr. Huggins' research on prostate cancer changed forever the way scientists regarded the behavior of all cancer cells and for the first time brought hope to the prospect of treating advanced cancers. By showing that cancer cells were not autonomous and self perpetuating, as previously believed, but were dependent on chemical signals such as hormones to grow and survive, and that depriving cancer cells of those signals could restore the health of patients with widespread metastases, Dr. Huggins provided an immense stimulus to research on cancer chemotherapy. He also founded the renowned Ben May Laboratory for Cancer Research at the University of Chicago. He trained and inspired the lives of numerous medical scientists. And he became the leading urologist of his day, bringing a new level of scientific curiosity and inquiry to a neglected surgical specialty. Dr. Huggins was a pioneer in understanding the physiology and biochemistry of the male urogenital tract and was able to extend his findings from this field into many other areas.
