  Ulf von Euler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ulf Svante von Euler (February 7, 1905 – March 9, 1983) was a Swedish physiologist and pharmacologist.
Ulf S. von Euler was born in Stockholm, the son of two noted scientists, Dr. Hans von Euler-Chelpin, a professor of chemistry, and Dr. Astrid Cleve, a professor of botany and geology.
He and his group studied thoroughly its distribution and fate in biological tissues and the in the nervous system in physiological and pathological conditions, and found that noradrenaline was produced and stored in nerve synaptic terminals in intracellular vesicles, a key discovery which changed dramatically the course of many researches in the field.

 Ulf von Euler
Euler was the son of 1929 Nobel laureate Hans von Euler-Chelpin.
Euler's outstanding achievement was his identification of noradrenaline (norepinephrine), the key neurotransmitter (or impulse carrier) in the sympathetic nervous system.
Euler also discovered the hormones known as prostaglandins, which play active roles in stimulating human muscle contraction and in the regulation of the cardiovascular and nervous systems.

Ulf S. von Euler was born in Stockholm on February 7th, 1905, as the second son of Hans von Euler-Chelpin and Astrid Cleve.
After a period of study with Robin Fahraeus (a pioneer in blood sedimentation and rheology) von Euler began some research work on his own and he was much encouraged by a prize given for a study on vasoconstrictor properties of fever blood.
Aided by the continuous support of Liljestrand, von Euler had the good fortune of obtaining a Rockefeller Fellowship for studies abroad (1930-1931) with H. Dale in London, I. de Burgh Daly in Birmingham, C. Heymans in Ghent and G. Embden in Frankfurt.

According to Jan Böhme's father-in-law, who was a student of von Euler-Chelpin in the 1930's, the story goes that Euler-Chelpin had proposed to his second wife (Elisabeth af Ugglas) thusly: "Miss, would you consider translating your family name into German?"
In Sweden, the open helmet (with visor) is restricted to nobility, although this seems tolerated for members of bona fide noble families that have not been introduced to the swedish House of Nobility (and are thus, technically, commoners).

This so-called shunt is an adaptive mechanismo that is beneficial, because it causes blood to pass the lung without being oxygenated.
The mechanism was discovered by two Swedish pharmacologists, Ulf von Euler (1905-1981) and Göran Liljestrand at the Department of Pharmacology of Karolinska Institute in Stockholm.
The molecular mechanism seems to be mediated by oxygen-sensitive potassium ion channels in the cell membrane of pulmonary smooth muscle.

His involvement with prostaglandins started at a meeting of the Physiological Society of the Karolinska Institute on October 19 1945, when the renowned Swedish pharmacologist Ulf von Euler proposed a new line of research for Bergstrom.
In fact, the origins of prostaglandin research were laid in the 1930s when von Euler and M Goldblatt, the British pharmacologist, independently found that seminal fluid and seminal vesicles from most animals, including man, contained a substance that caused contraction of the smooth muscle of the uterus.
At the Karolinska meeting 10 years later, von Euler asked Bergstrom if he was interested in studying the small amount of his lipid extracts of sheep vesicular glands that von Euler had stored since before the war.

Since 1906, when Thomas Elliott first proposed that nerve cells communicate with each other and the muscles they control by the release of chemicals, there had been efforts to identify these substances.
Euler's recognition was for his discovery (1946) of noradrenaline which serves as neurotransmitter at the nerve terminals of the sympathetic nervous system.
He further showed how noradrenaline is stored in small nerve granules within the nerve fibres of this system.
