Extractions: Despite its very potent vasodilating action in vivo , acetylcholine (ACh) does not always produce relaxation of isolated preparations of blood vessels in vitro . Recently, we observed that in a ring preparation from the rabbit thoracic aorta, ACh produced marked relaxation at concentrations lower than those required to produce contraction (confirming an earlier report by Jelliffe ). In investigating this apparent discrepancy, we discovered that the loss of retaxation by ACh in the case of the strip was the result of unintentional rubbing of its intimai surface against foreign surfaces during its preparation. If care was taken to avoid rubbing of the intimai surface during preparation, the tissue, whether ring, transverse strip or helical strip, always exhibited relaxation to ACh, and the possibility was considered that rubbing of the intimai surface had removed endothelial cells . We demonstrate here that relaxation of isolated preparations of rabbit thoracic aorta and other blood vessels by ACh requires the presence of endothelial cells, and that ACh, acting on muscarinic receptors of these cells, stimulates release of a substance(s) that causes relaxation of the vascular smooth muscle. We propose that this may be one of the principal mechanisms for ACh-induced vasodilation

Extractions: "La découverte du NO a ouvert de nombreuses voies de recherches. On sait, depuis, que le NO protège aussi nos artères des thromboses. Agissant de concert avec une autre molécule, la prostacycline, il empêche les plaquettes sanguines d'adhérer à la paroi vasculaire. Mais il reste aussi plein d'interrogations. Comment se fait le transport du NO de l'endothélium où il est produit jusqu'au muscle lisse dont il commande le relâchement? La question n'est pas aujourd'hui complètement résolue. Qui déclenche la production de NO dans la cellule endothéliale? Là aussi, on soupçonne, entre autres choses, que les variations de flux sanguin jouent le rôle de signal. Un autre débat consiste à savoir si NO est une hormone. Autrement dit, quel est son rayon d'action ?..." Les questions foisonnent.

Extractions: Citation: "for their discoveries concerning nitric oxide as a signalling molecule in the cardiovascular system Nitric oxide (NO) is a gas that transmits signals in the organism. Signal transmission by a gas that is produced by one cell, penetrates through membranes and regulates the function of another cell represents an entirely new principle for signalling in biological systems. Robert F Furchgott, Louis J Ignarro and Ferid Murad Robert F Furchgott , pharmacologist in New York, studied the effect of drugs on blood vessels but often achieved contradictory results. The same drug sometimes caused a contraction and at other occasions a dilatation. Furchgott wondered if the variation could depend on whether the surface cells (the endothelium) inside the blood vessels were intact or damaged. In 1980, he demonstrated in an ingenious experiment that acetylcholine dilated blood vessels only if the endothelium was intact. He concluded that blood vessels are dilated because the endothelial cells produce an unknown signal molecule that makes vascular smooth muscle cells relax. He called this signal molecule EDRF, the endothelium-derived relaxing factor, and his findings led to a quest to identify the factor. Ferid Murad , MD and pharmacologist now in Houston, analyzed how nitroglycerin and related vasodilating compounds act and discovered in 1977 that they release nitric oxide, which relaxes smooth muscle cells. He was fascinated by the concept that a gas could regulate important cellular functions and speculated that endogenous factors such as hormones might also act through NO. However, there was no experimental evidence to support this idea at the time.

Furchgott A Hero To Those Who Know Him: 10/23 would come the voice of robert F. furchgott, Ph.D., recalls Harry S. Margolius,MD, Ph.D., professor and chairman of the Department of Pharmacology. http://www.musc.edu/catalyst/archive/1998/cat10-23furchgott.htm
Extractions: Furchgott a hero to those who know him During a period of a few months in 1980, researchers in the Department of Pharmacology on the third floor of the Basic Science Building would slip, hopefully unnoticed, past a door that now displays a brass plaque: The Furchgott Room. Harry, look at this! would come the voice of Robert F. Furchgott, Ph.D., recalls Harry S. Margolius, M.D., Ph.D., professor and chairman of the Department of Pharmacology. Furchgott, a Charleston native and recently named winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine, was at MUSC on sabbatical from State University of New York Health Science Center at Brooklyn in 1980. MUSC awarded Furchgott an honorary degree of Doctor of Science, honoris causa, during commencement ceremonies May 16, 1997. While here, he asked me if I thought (Dr.) Tom Gaffney (department chairman at the time) would let him have a room to work on a paper he was preparing. And this is the room, Margolius said, pointing to the plaque. Hed be in here working, and wed hear as we passed by, Look at this. Hed show me how a vasodilator, such as acetylcholine or bradykinin enlarges this blood vessel from a rabbit ear. But then hed run a Q-tip or forceps over the blood vessel and the same vasodilater would make it contract. I wonder why it does that, Harry, hed say. That observation and the paper he was preparing in the tiny third-floor room, converted from a cleaned-out storage closet, became first the abstract and then the paper published in Nature (number 288, pages 373-376, 1980), which yielded a Nobel Prize in medicine for Furchgott and two others on Oct. 12.
