Huggins, Charles B., in full CHARLES BRENTON HUGGINS (b. Sept. 22, 1901, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Can.d. Jan. 12, 1997, Chicago, Ill., U.S.), Canadian-born American surgeon and urologist whose investigations demonstrated the relationship between hormones and certain types of cancer. For his discoveries Huggins received (with Peyton Rous ) the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1966. Huggins was educated at Acadia University (Wolfville, N.S.) and at Harvard University, where he received his M.D. in 1924. He went to the University of Michigan for further training in surgery (1924-27) and then joined the faculty of the University of Chicago, where he served as director of the Ben May Laboratory for Cancer Research from 1951 to 1969. Huggins was a specialist on the male urological and genital tract. In the early 1940s he found he could retard the growth of prostate cancer by blocking the action of the patient's male hormones with doses of the female hormone estrogen. This research demonstrated that some cancer cells, like normal body cells, are dependent on hormonal signals to survive and grow and that, by depriving cancer cells of the correct signals, the growth of tumours could be slowed down, at least temporarily. In 1951 Huggins showed that breast cancers are also dependent on specific hormones. By removing the ovaries and adrenal glands, which are the source of estrogen

Methods of Treatment: Hormone Therapy Our Best Friend to the Rescue "Now go fetch me a cure..." Surprisingly, there are only two animal species that are known to develop cancerous tumors of the prostate gland—dogs and humans. It was this rare biological connection between humans and their "best friends" that made the story of the development of the first hormone-based treatment of cancer possible. Hormones are chemical substances that help to control the processes taking place within plants and animals. Endocrinology, the study of hormones, their production, and their effects, was a relatively new field when it came to human endocrinology in the 1930s. This was the decade in which Dr. Charles Benton Huggins—a professor of surgery at the University of Chicago—began to study the connections between hormones and cancer. It just so happened that he began to study these connections through observations of and experiments upon dogs. Charles B. Huggins Huggins was interested in an outstanding puzzle in the scientific understanding of cancer. The behavior of normal cells is regulated through a number of processes in the human body. One type of these regulating processes is governed chemically, through the action of hormones. For example, just consider all the changes in the body caused by hormones during puberty. The outstanding puzzle was this: did cancer cells still respond to these regulation processes, or were they beyond their control entirely? Huggins decided to look for a general answer through the study of the prostate gland. Because he would have to use fairly drastic experiments to answer his questions, he turned first to looking at dogs.

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.

David H. Hubel M.D. Nobel Laureates in Medicine 1901-1997 When David Hunter Hubel graduated with a B.Sc. from McGill University in 1947, he decided, almost by flipping a coin, to take medicine instead of physics, his particular interest at the time. In 1981, his discoveries “concerning information processing in the visual system” led to his being one of three doctors to share that year’s Nobel prize in medicine. In doing so, he became the third Canadian-born medical doctor awarded the prize since Alfred Nobel, the Swedish chemist and industrialist provided funds for the award in 1901. He is seen here, left, presenting the Governor General’s Silver Medal, in 1972, to the Acadia undergraduate achieving the highest academic standing in his/her first Bachelor’s degree program. [Photo courtesy Office of Public Affairs/Acadia University] The first Canadian to receive this award was Dr. Frederick Banting (1891-1941) who became a household name for his role in co-discovering insulin in 1921; the second was Dr. Charles B. Huggins who shared the award in 1966 for cancer research. Dr. Hubel was a professor of neurobiology at the Harvard University Medical School in 1981 when he became a co-winner with his friend and co-worker at Harvard, Dr. Torsten Wiesel, and neuroscientist Dr. Roger Sperry of the California Institute of Technology. After learning in 1981 that he had just been awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology, which he shared with fellow laureate, Torsten Weisel, for work on “information processing in the visual system,” Ontario-born David Hubel held a celebration conference in his classroom at Harvard University. A neurophysiologist, Dr. Hubel is one of only three Canadian-born doctors to be so honoured for their distinguished work in medical research. [Photo courtesy Marc Peloquin via Dr. David Hubel]
