Turon Murad’s Brother Ferid Wins Nobel Prize in Medicine Ferid Murad has won the Nobel Prize for Medicine for his work with nitric oxide and its impact on the human body. Ferid Murad, 62, is the older brother of Turon Murad, Anthropology, and one of three Murad brothers, each successful in his own right. Ferid Murad, who holds both a Ph.D. and an M.D., now works at the University of Texas Medical School. He has had a very productive career in both research and teaching. Although it was his intent after graduating from medical school to practice medicine, opportunity kept him in pharmacological research and teaching.. The whole Murad family worked hard in the family restaurant in Indiana. The elder Murads, themselves uneducated, were intent on providing an opportunity for work that their sons would love and that would take them beyond the world of steel mills which surrounded them. "Our father wanted us to love our work. And, indeed, each of the three of us is passionate about what we do: Ferid about his pharmacological research, our other brother about his work in dentistry, and, of course, I love my forensics research and work," said Murhad. Although it is certainly the highest and the best-rewarded, the Nobel Prize is not the only prestigious award Ferid has received. In 1996 Ferid received the Albert Lasker Award, often an indicator of who will be nominated for the Nobel.

Ferid Murad, MED '65, GRS '65 Wins Nobel Prize in Medicine "It's very exciting to win the Nobel Prizeit changes your life. There's lots of requests from people to come and work with you. All of a sudden, people think you know everything!" Dr. Ferid Murad certainly knows a lot. He recalls his student days at CWRU. "It was the first program in the country to offer the M.D./Ph.D. For me it was optimal training," he says. It led to 22 years of research into the properties of nitric oxide, a colorless, odorless gas. It also led to the discovery that the gas acts as a messenger to tell blood vessels to relax and widen, lowering blood pressure. It has applications ranging from treating heart disease and shock to reducing the possibility of a life threatening condition in premature babies called pulmonary hypertension. Dr. Murad's research continues. "There are still lots of things that can be done. We are hoping to find new pathways-new enzymes that affect nitric oxide."

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.

31. The Scientist - Nobel Honors Pioneers Of NO No sooner had the Swedish nobel committee announced that Robert Furchgott, LouisIgnarro, and ferid murad had won the 1998 prize for physiology or medicine http://www.the-scientist.com/yr1998/nov/lewis_p1_981123.html

The Scientist 12[23]:1, Nov. 23, 1998 News Nobel Honors Pioneers of NO By Ricki Lewis and Barry A. Palevitz Scientific insight sometimes comes from the unanticipated convergence of ideas and findings. This is certainly the case for nitric oxide (NO), a molecule whose simplicity belies its profound impact on organisms as diverse as humans and Arabidopsis Robert Furchgott, distinguished professor of pharmacology at the State University of New York Health Science Center at Brooklyn; Louis Ignarro, professor of pharmacology at the University of California at Los Angeles; and Ferid Murad, professor and chair of the department of integrative biology, pharmacology, and physiology at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston. Theirs was an exciting journey that incorporated various facets of the scientific processserendipity, inexplicable results, disparate discoveries, and the conundrum of whether a clever hypothesis or the experimenting that tests it deserves more recognition. The Karolinska Institute, which picks the recipients, heralded the discovery of NO's functions as "an entirely new principle for signaling in biological systems" and "the first discovery that a gas can act as a signal molecule...", despite the fact that botanists have long known of the gaseous messenger and plant growth regulator ethylene.

Dr. Ferid Murad Presents Nitric Oxide Lecture Murad, of the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston, will present a lecture titled "Nitric Oxide and Cyclic GMP Signaling." Murad, in collaboration with colleagues, won the Nobel Prize for medicine and physiology last year for landmark work on nitric oxide (NO), a gas that transmits signals in organisms. His research analyzed how this particular gas relaxes smooth muscle cells. The cardiovascular forum will be in Lecture Hall I of the Joe H. Reynolds Medical Building. A reception following the lecture will be held for Murad at 10 a.m. in the lobby of the building. For more information, contact John Holder at (409) 845-6237.

37. Murad, Ferid murad, ferid (1936). August, 1913, asked his name, after which the officer declaredhim to be John murad and stamped His recent comment was, one nobel to zero http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/M/Murad/Murad.ht

Murad, Ferid My mother also ran away from home at 17 in 1935 to marry my father who was 39. I was born September 14, 1936 at home in their hot and small apartment over a bakery in Whiting, Indiana. My brothers John Abderhaman and Turhon Allen were born in 1938 and 1944. We were raised in a four room aparttment behind my parents' restaurant in Whiting, Indiana. This small apartment undoubtedly influenced my desire for large expensive homes. With this background I knew that I wanted considerable education so I wouldn't have to work as hard as my parents. Also, I knew at the age of 12 that I was going to become a doctor. My parents always encouraged us to get an education and establish a profession. However, my brothers and I grew up with considerable freedom whether it was saving or spending our tips from the restaurant or our career choices. This was also applied to our religious choices as my father was Muslim, my mother Baptist and we were raised in a Catholic community. Subsequently, my brothers became Catholic when they married Catholic wives and I was baptized Episcopalian in college. My wife of more than forty years is Presbyterian, two of our daughters married Jewish men and one married a Catholic man. There was one notable friend since kindergarten, Ronald Delismon, who influenced me considerably. We competed constantly with everything: grades, chess, fencing, sports, etc. Today he is an aeronautical engineer recently retired from Boeing. His projects were always top secret such as the stealth bomber and some of the star war defense projects. He would never discuss his work with me for security reasons and often joked with me by saying, "if I told you, I would then have to kill you". After 57 years we remain the best of friends and still compete, generally at golf, skiing and more pleasant encounters. His recent comment was, "one Nobel to zero".

Release Date: January 2002 Quick Links Table of Contents Meet the Editor Exploring New Directions For Nobel Laureate, research, mentoring and travel are challenging, exciting and rewarding Ferid Murad, M.D., Ph.D. To Nobel Laureate Ferid Murad, M.D., Ph.D., fundamental research is an exciting adventure - you don't know where it's going to take you. Just as his own research into nitric oxide may be important in understanding diabetes and cancer as well as the neurological and cardiovascular systems, other fundamental research at the Institute of Molecular Medicine for the Prevention of Human Diseases (IMM) may be important in diseases of the eye, the kidney, the brain or other organs. The power of scientific collaboration is the ability to realize much more quickly one's fundamental discoveries and the utility of science, to help patients, Murad said. "The beauty of research is that it takes you in all directions," said Murad, director of the IMM and holder of the John S. Dunn Sr. Distinguished Chair in Physiology and Medicine at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. "As a result, scientists can collaborate with a lot of people and never stop learning and exploring new directions. It never gets boring. Every day is a challenge with potential excitement, rewards and novel information.
