Otto Loewi After having attended the humanistic Gymnasium (grammar school) in his native town, he entered in 1891 the Universities of Munich and Strassburg That same year he also published the first part of a series of papers about experimental contributions to the physiology and pharmacology of kidney function. In 1902 Loewi also spent some months in Starling's laboratory, in London, where he also worked with W. M. Bayliss, Starling's brother-in-law. And it was in this laboratory that he first met his lifelong friend Henry Dale, who was later to share the Nobel Prize with him. Cambridge , where the latter was conducting his final experiments on the action of epinephrine). His classic paper in this field was published in 1905, the best-known result of these studies being the observation that small doses of cocaine potentiate the responses of sympathetically innervated organs to epinephrine and sympathetic nerve stimulation. It was as Professor in Graz that Loewi cultivated his gifts as a lecturer. A number of his associates during this period came from the U.S.A. Loewi continued his studies of carbohydrate metabolism, investigating among other things the conditions responsible for epinephrine hyperglycaemia.

Loewi, Otto (b. June 3, 1873, Frankfurt am Main, Ger.d. Dec. 25, 1961, New York, N.Y., U.S.), German-born American physician and pharmacologist who, with Sir Henry Dale , received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1936 for their discoveries relating to the chemical transmission of nerve impulses. After Loewi graduated in medicine (1896) from the German University (now the University of Strasbourg), he studied and taught in European universities, becoming professor of pharmacology at Graz, Austria, in 1909. In 1940 he went to the United States; he was made research professor at the School of Medicine of New York University, New York City, where he remained until his death. His neurological researches (1921-26) provided the first proof that chemicals were involved in the transmission of impulses from one nerve cell to another and from neuron to the responsive organ. He and his colleagues, by stimulating the nerves in the heart of a frog, slowed the heart's rate of contraction. The fluid perfusing this heart was allowed to perfuse a second heart in which the nerves were not stimulated; the second heart slowed in rate also, indicating the presence of a reactive substance in the fluid. This substance was shown to be acetylcholine , whose physiological properties Dale had described comprehensively in 1914. Acetylcholine was subsequently isolated from animal tissue by Dale and Harold Dudley in 1929.

In Strassburg he was especially fascinated by the internal specialist Naunyn and the pharmacologist Schmiedeberg . The topic of his doctoral thesis under Oswald Schmiedeberg was an investigation using the isolated frog heart preparation. He used this preparation almost throughout his whole career, and it was this preparation that he used for the experiments which lead to his Nobel Prize.

9. Otto Loewi In 1936 otto loewi and sir Henry Dale were awarded the nobel Prizein physiology and medicine. Only two years later he was dragged http://www.ls.huji.ac.il/~parnas/Otto/loewi.html

Otto Loewi (1873-1961) Otto Loewi was unique among his generation of intellectual giants. An extraordinary , harmonic blend of the brilliant scientist and discerning artist, a victim of Nazi persecution who transferred the fruits of his scientific genius and remarkable perception from tortured Europe to England and the United States. A Nobel Prize laureate fond of narrating how his monumental breakthrough describing the theory of chemical transmission of the nervous impulse exploded in a torrent of inspiration during a sleepless night. How, having retraced the source of his astonishing hunch he proposed that most "intuitive" discoveries are associated with earlier hypotheses buried deep in the unconscious mind. The hallmark of his exquisitely consummate man was the manner in which the Arts fused with his science, the way in which he synchronized his love for painting, the written word and good music with perceptive scientific curiosity. In 1936 Otto Loewi and sir Henry Dale were awarded the Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine. Only two years later he was dragged off to prison by Nazi stormtroopers . Forced to hand over his share of the Nobel Prize money as ransom for his life Loewi escaped to England without a penny to his name - only the genius nurtured in the great laboratories of scientifically fecund pre-war Europe. In June 1940 , armed with a doctor's certificate proclaiming his - "senility... not able to earn a living!" Otto Loewi reached the United States to discover the Woods Hole Marine Biological Laboratory in Massachusetts. During the summers he augmented his study of cells, their structure and how they function in relation to each other. As a permanent research professor at New York University College of Medicine Otto Loewi illustrated how a great mind honed on the Classics could perceive scientific truths that might otherwise have been overlooked. In that respect, Israel with its abundance of cultural elation blending with creative research is a fitting home for his spiritual and scientific heritage.

Spotlight on Neuroscience Otto Loewi Born in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, Otto Loewi originally wanted to be an art historian but bowed to family pressures and went to medical school instead (similarly, Ramón y Cajal's plans to become a painter were thwarted by his father). Loewi later went into pharmacology research and was one of the first people to propose that cells talked to one another with "little whiffs of scent" - more formally to be known as the chemical theory of synaptic transmission. While living in Graz, Austria in 1921, Loewi dreamed of an experiment that would win him the Nobel Prize - "The night before Easter Sunday of that year I awoke, turned on the light, and jotted down a few notes on a tiny slip of thin paper. Then I felt asleep again. It occurred to me at six o'clock in the morning that I had written down something most important, but I was unable to decipher the scrawl. The next night, at three o'clock, the idea returned. It was the experiment to determine whether or not the hypothesis of chemical transmission that I had uttered seventeen years ago was correct. I got up immediately, went to the laboratory, and performed a simple experiment on a frog heart according to the nocturnal design" Excerpt from Otto Loewi: An Autobiographic Sketch (Univ. of Chicago Press, 1960)
