`•
`lr wasn't uncil the early 1900s chat inhibition of ovulacion was observed co
`be linked to pregnancy and the corpus lutewn. Ludwig Haherlandt,
`professor of physiology ac the University of Innsbruck, Austria, was me
`first co demonstrate rhat ovarian exrracrs given orally could prevent fenil(cid:173)
`icy (in mice) . In the 1920s, Habeda.o.dc an4 a Vi~ese gynecologist,
`Otfried Ouo Fellner, were adm.i.o.ist:ering steroid exuaccs to a variery of
`an.i.rnal.s and reporting the inhibition offerriiicy. By 1931, H.aberlandt was
`proposing the administration of hormones for birth conuol. An extract
`was produced, named Infecuodin, ready co be used, bur Haberl.andr's early
`dearh in 1932, at: age 47, broughc an end to this effort. Fdlner disappeared
`after r:he annexation of Ausuia to Hider's Germany.
`
`The concepr was arutundated by Haherlandr, bur steroid chemistry wasn't
`ready. The enraccion and isolation of a few milligrams of the sex steroids
`required scarring points measured in gallons of urine or thousands of
`poll.Jlds of orgaos. Edward Daisy processed 80,000 sow ovaries co produce
`12 rng of esrradiol.

`A Clinical Guide for Contraception
`
`Russell Marker
`The supply problem was solved by an eccenuic chemise, Russell E. Marker,
`who mmpleted his thesis, but not his murse work, for his Ph.D. Marker,
`born in 1902 near Hagerstown, Maryland, rece.ived his Bachelor's degree
`in orga.Wc chemistry and his Master's degree in mUoidal chemistry from
`the Universicy of Maryland. After leaving the University of .Maryland,
`Marker worked with rhe Ethyl Gasoline Corporation, md in 1926, devel(cid:173)
`oped the proet.:5S of ocrane raring, based on the dismvery that knocking in
`gasoline was due ro hydrocarbons with an uneven number of carbons.
`
`From 1927 ro 1935, Marker worked at the Rockefeller Inscirute, publish(cid:173)
`ing a meal of 32 papers on configu.racion and optical rotation as a method
`of idemifying mmpounds. He became interested in solving the problem of
`producing abundam and cheap amounts of progesterone, but he was told
`co cominue with his work in optical technology. In 1935, he moved ro
`Pennsylvania Stare University at a reduced salary, buc with the freedom to
`pursue any field of research. At thac rime, it required the ovaries from 2500
`pregnant pigs co produce 1 mg of progesterone. In 1939, Marker devised
`the method (called the Marker degradacion) to convert a sapogenin mole(cid:173)
`cule into a progesrin. Marker became convinced that the solution co the
`problem of obt::ain.ing large quantities of sceroid hormones was ro fiad
`planes (in the family that includes the lily, the agave, and the yam) that
`contained sufficient amounts of diosgenin, a plant steroid (a sapogenin)
`that muld be used as a srarcing poim for steroid hormone produaion.TIUs
`conviction was srrengchened with his discovery t.h.ar a species of Trillium,
`kncrwn locally as Belh's rooc, was mllecred in North Carolina and used in
`rhe preparation of Lydia Pinkham's Compound, popular at the time ro
`relieve menstrll:ll troubles. The plane ingredient in Beth's root was dios(cid:173)
`genin, and it is unUkdy char it ex:erced any therapeucic effect. The rhizome
`in Belli's roor was roo small ro provide sufficient amounts for commercial
`use, and Marker's search foe an appropriate plant then took him to
`California, Arizona, and Texas.
`
`On a visit ro Texas A & M University, Marker found a piecure of a large
`dioscorca (Diosco"a mexitana) in a book thar he just happened co pick up
`and browse through while spending the night at the home of a retired
`boranisc. After returning ro Pe.nnsylvania, he decided co go co Veracruz,
`Mexico (it took 3 days by ua.in), to search for !.his dioscorea. He made
`several arrempr.s in 194l and early 1942, bm was frustrated first by the lack
`of a plant-collecting permit from the Mcxician government and chen by
`his failu(e to find the plane. He remembered rhat the book with the picrure
`reponed thar this dioscorea was known locally as "cabei'...a de negro," black
`rubets that grew near Orizaba a.ml Cordoba. Marker rook a bus to
`Cordoba, md near Orizaba, an Indian who owned a small srore brought

`pharmaceurical indusuy, Marker used his life savings, and in 1942, he
`rerurned ro Veracruz, collected the roors of che Mexican yam, aod prepared
`a syrup fi-om the roars. Back in Penosylvania wirh his 5-gallon cans of
`syrup, Marker worked ouc che degradation of diosgenin co progesterone..
`One 5-gallon can yielded 3 kg of progesterone. United Srates pharmaceu-
`cical companies scill refused to back Marker, and even the University
`refused, dc.spire Marker's urging, to patent the process.
`
`In 1943, Marker resigned from Pen.nsylvania State Universicy and went to
`Mexico where )te collected the roots of Dwscorea m~xicana, 10 tons worth!
`Looking through the yellow pages in a Merica City telephone directory,
`Marker found a company called Laboracorios Hormona, owned by a
`lawyer, Emeric Somlo, and a physician, Frederick Lehman. Marker
`arranged. a meecing. and rhe three agreed to form a Mexican company ro
`produce hormones. in an old pouery shed in Merica Cicy (the laboratories
`of Laboratories Hormona), in two mo!1r:h.s, he prepared several pounds of
`progesterone (wonh $300,000) with the hdp of four yollllg women who
`ha.d .licrle eduan:ion and spoke no Engl.i.sh (Marker did nor speak Spanish).
`The cwo partners and Marker formed a company in 1944 that they called
`Syncex (from rynthesis and Mmco). In 1944, Marker produced over 30 kg
`of progesterone. The price of progesrerone fell from $200 to $50 a gram.
`
`During this rime, Marker received expenses, bur he was not given his share
`of che profits or che 40% share of swck due w him. Failing to reach a
`seulement, Marker left Symex after only one year and started a new
`company in Texcoco, called Bocanica-Mex. He changed ro Dioscorea
`barbasco, which gave a grearer yield of diosgenin, and t:he price of proges(cid:173)
`terone dropped to $10 a gram, and larer co $5. This company was allegedly
`harassed (legally and ph~ically) by Syncex, and in 1946, sold, evenrually
`reaching ownership by Organon of Holland, which still uses ir.
`
`In 1949, Marker recired m Pennsylvania m devote che resc of his life to
`making replicas of antique works in silver, a successful business rhat
`allowed him, in the 1980s, co endow scienri.Bc lecrureships at both
`Pennsylvania Swe Un.iverury and che Un.iversicy of Maryland. However,
`he took his know-how wich him. Fortunately for Symex, he had published
`a scientific description of his process, aod there sriU was no patent on his
`discoveries. Synr.e:x recruited George Roseo.k.ranz, a Hungarian immigranr
`living in Cuba, ro reinstitute chc commercial manufaccure of progesterone

`in 1995, from complications after a broken hip.
`
`Carl Djerassi•
`The Djerassi family lived in Bulg:uia for hundreds of years afrer escaping
`Spain during the Inquisition. Carl Djerassi, the son of a Bulgarian physi(cid:173)
`cian, was born in Vienna (as was his physician roomer) . Dje.rassi, at the age
`of 16, and his mother emigrated to the United Scates in 1939. A Jewish
`refugee aid organization placed Djerassi with a family in Newark, New
`Jersey. Wich a scholarship ro Tarkio College in Tarkio, Missouri, he was
`exposed to middle America, where he earned his way giving talks to church
`groups about Bulgaria and Europe. His education was further supported
`by another scholarship &om Kenyon College in Ohio, where he pursued
`chemistry. After a year working for CIBA, Djerassi received his graduare
`degree from the Uuiversiry of WISconsin. Returning co CIBA and being
`somewhat unhappy, he responded to an inviration m visit Syntex.
`Rosenkranz proposed that Djerassi head a research group to concem.race
`on me synchcsis of cortisone.
`
`In 1949, it was discovered char cortisone relieved arrhricis, and the race was
`on to devdop an easy and cheap method to synthesize cortisone. Carl
`Djerassi, at age 26, joined Symex ro 'WOrk on this synthesis using the
`Mexican yam plant sreroid diosgenin as the starting poinr. This was
`quickly achieved (in 195l), bur soon after, an even better method of corci(cid:173)
`sone producrion using microbiologic fermenracioJl was discovered at
`Upjohn. This latter method used progcstemne as the starring point, and,
`therefore, Syncex fOund itself as the key supplier to oilier companies for
`rhis important process, at rhe rate of 10 tons of progesterone per year and
`a price of 48 cents per gram.
`
`Djerassi and other Synrex chemist<> then rurot::d cheir attention to che sex
`steroids. They discovered rhat the removal of the 19--carbon from yam,
`derived progescerone .increased the progestational acrivicy of che molecule.
`Ethisterone had been available for a dozen years, and me Synrex chemists
`reasoned tha[ removal of the 19-carbon would increase the proges~:arional
`potency of this oraUy active compound. In 1951, norethindrone was
`synthesized; the patcm for this drug .is the first patent for a drug listed in
`the National In.vemor's Hall of Fame in Akron, Ohio. A closcly related

`
`Gregory Pincus
`Gregory Goodwin (Goody) Pincus was born in 1903 in New Jersey, the
`son of Russian Jewish immigrants who lived on a farm colony founded by
`a Ge(')JUJl-Jewish philanthropic organization. Pincus was me oldest of 6
`children and grew up in a home of imellecrual curiosity and energy, but
`even his fami1y regarded him as a genius.
`
`Pincus graduared from Cornell and went to Harvard to study generics,
`joining Hudson Hoagland and B.F. Skinner as graduate students ofW).
`Crozier io physiology, receivi.ug degrees in 1927. Crozier's hero was
`Jacques Loeb who discovered artificial parthenogenesis work.ing with sea
`urchin eggs. Most impormncly, Loeb was a srrong believer io applying
`science ro improve human life. Thus, Crozier, i.n.flueoced by Loeb, caughc
`Pincus, Hoagland, and Skinner (respecrivdy, in reproductive biology,
`neurophysiology, and psychology) to apply science ro human problems.
`This was w be the cornerstone of Pincus's own philosophy.
`
`Hoagland, after a short stay ac Harvard, spcnc a year in Cambridge,
`England, and men moved ro Clark University in Worcester, Massachuserrs,
`to be che chair of biology ar the age of 31. Pincus weor co England and
`Germany, aod recurned co Harvard as an assisrnm professor of physiology.
`
`Pincus perfoWlcd pioneering studies of meiotic maturation in rruu:nmalian
`oocytcs, in both rabbir and human oocytcs. In 1934, Pincus reported the
`achievement of in viuo fertilization of nbbic eggs, earning him a hea.dl.ioc
`in me New York Times that alluded co Haldane and Huxley. An an:icle in
`Colliers depicred him as an evil scientisr. By 1936, H.uvard had cired
`Pincus's work as one of the university's outstanding scienrific ac.b..ievemeors
`of all rime, bur Harvard denied him tenure in 1937.
`
`At Clark Univcrsicy; Hudson Ho~bnd was in consl:allt confljcr wirh the
`presidcnr of the university, Wallace W. Arwood, the senior author of a
`widely used re.xtbook on geography. In 1931, che Depanrnent of Biology
`consisted of one fuculry member and his graduate srudenr, and rheir chair,
`Hudson Hoagland. Hoagland, upset and angry over Harvard's refusal w
`grant renure to his friend (suspecting chat this was because of anti(cid:173)
`Semitism), .invited Pincus to joiu bim.

`Hoagland secured funds for Pincus from philanthropists i.n New York Ciry,
`enough for a laborarory aod an assiscanc. This success Unpressed che two
`men, especially Hoagland, planring che idea th.ar ir would be possible to

`
`Min-Chueh Chang received b.is Ph.D. degree from Harvard on an infa(cid:173)
`mous day, December 7, 1941, and thus he was forced ro remain in this
`counrry. He was drawn ro Pincus because of Pincus's book, The Egg.r of
`Mammals, published in 1936, a book rJur had a major impact on biolo(cid:173)
`gistS ar char cime. The successful recruirmenr ofM-C Chang by Hoagland
`and Pi.ncus was ro pay great dividends.
`
`Soon Hoagland h:~.d put together a group of outsranding sc.ienrists, bur
`because of his on-going antagonism wic:h President Atwood, che group was
`denied faculry srarus. Working in a convened barn, chey were tot:ally
`suppocred by private funds. By 1943, 12 of Clark's 60 faculry were in rhe
`Deparunent of Biology.
`
`Frusrcated by me politics of academia, Hoagland and Pincus (who both
`eo joyed srepping omside of convencion) had a vision of a privare research
`cen.rer devored ro their philosophy of applied science, Indeed, the estab(cid:173)
`lishmem of rhe Worcesrer Foundacion for ExperLmental Biology, in 1944,
`cao be auribuced directly to Hoagland and Pincus, rhcir friendship for
`each ocher, their confidence, enthusiasm, ambirioo, and drive. Ir was their
`spirit thar rurned many members of Worcester society inro financial
`supporters of biologic science. Hoagland and Pincus accomplished whar
`rhey set our to do. They created and sustained a vibrant, productive scien(cid:173)
`cific instirucion in which ic was a pleasure ro work.
`
`Although named rhe Worcesrcr Foundation for Experimental Biology, the
`Foundation was
`located
`in rbe summer of 1945 across Lake
`Quiosigamond in a house on an estate in Shrewsbury. The Board of
`Trustees was chaired by Harlow Shapley, a distinguished astronomer, vice(cid:173)
`chaired by Rabbi Levi Olan, and included 3 Nobellaureares and a group
`of Worcester businessmen.
`
`From 194 S co the dea(h of Pincus in 1967 , rhe sraff grew from 12 to 3 SO
`(scie.ncisrs and support people), 36 of whom were independently funded
`and 45 were postdoctoral feUow:s. The annual budger grew from $1 00,000
`to $4.5 million, One hundred acres of adjoining land were acquired, and
`the campus grew to ll buildings. In its fmr 25 years, approximately 3000
`scientific papers were published.

`
`Karherine Dexter McCormick was a very rich woman; in 1904, she
`married Sranley McCormick, the son of Cyrus McCormick, rhe founder
`of International Harvester. She was also intelligent, the second woman to
