Discovery of Oxygen 1674 Mayow: Demonstrated that only one part of air was necessary for life. That part was removed both by respiration and by fire ”Nitro ariel spirits” (NAS) NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS NAS H2O
Discovery of Oxygen The Phlogiston Theory All combustible materials contain a ”phlogiston” that escape during burning
Discovery of Oxygen Priestley’s experiment, August, 1774. 2Hg + ”Air” + heat 2HgO 2HgO + intense heat 2Hg+ ”Air” Reported to the Royal Society, March 1775 and demonstrated that a mouse survived better in ”Air” from heated HgO. Called it both ”Dephlogisticated air” and ”Fire Air”.
Discovery of Oxygen Scheele, also a Phlogistonist, did the same experiments already 1773. Sent a letter to Lavoisierin September 1774. No response; the letter was lost. Lavoisier denied having seen the letter. Priestley visited Lavoisier in October, 1774 and discussed his experiment. Lavoisier repeated and confirmed. Lavoisier published and called the air ”eminently breathable air”. He never referred to Priestley or Scheele. Several years later Lavoiser called this ”air” - Oxygen. John W Severinghaus Acta Anaesth Scand, 2002
Discovery of Oxygen What about Scheeles letter ? It was re-discovered by E. Grimaux in 1890 in a collection of papers that belonged to MarieAnne Lavoisier. Grimaux published the text but the original was lost again. Re-re-discovered, however, in 1993, when donated to Archives de l’Académie de Sciences John W Severinghaus Acta Anaesth Scand, 2002
Who should go to Stockholm December 10? From the hands of .... ...His Majesty The King Hence, Scheele and Priestley discovered ”Fire Air” Lavoisier repeated the experiments. Understood the physiological role of ”Fire Air” and later called it Oxygen.
Oxygen Sensing In all oxygen consuming mammalian cells the transcriptionfactor Hypoxia Inducible Factor, HIF, is a key regulator The Discovery of HIF opened up for delineation of molecular mechanisms of oxygen regulated gene expression Gregg Semenza, Cell, 1999
Oxygen Sensing Cellular Hypoxia stabilizes HIF-1 HIF-1 is capable of activating over 70 genes In response to hypoxia which mediates adaptive physiological responses such as Angiogenesis Erythropoieses Glycolysis Gregg Semenza,2006
Oxygen Sensing Acute response to hypoxia occurs in seconds or few minutes and involves pre-excisting proteins. Chronic response to hypoxia occurs in a few minutes or more involves gene expression and synthesis of new proteins Gregg Semenza, Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology, 2006
