Bengt Ingemar Samuelssohn is a #Swedish #biochemist who shared the 1982 #NobelPrize for Physiology or #Medicine with fellow Swede Sune K. Bergström and Englishman John Robert Vane for “their discoveries concerning #prostaglandins and related #biologically related substances.” They identified, isolated and analysed numerous examples. These are local #tissue #hormones that defend #cells from sudden changes in such conditions as #bloodpressure, body #temperature, #allergic reactions, and other #physiological phenomena in #mammals. From 1965, Samuelsson was credited as the leading scientist in the #biochemistry of prostaglandins and for the current knowledge of the prostaglandin tree with all its branches. www.masterdoctorclinic.com
