| Abstract: | Werner Henle, the son of a surgeon and
grandson of anatomist-histologist Jacob Henle, was born in Dortmund, Germany. He attended the University of Munich from 1929-1930 and transferred to the University of Heidelberg in 1930 where he finished the course work needed for medical degree in 1934. Gertrude Szpingier was born in Mannheim, Germany and received her medical degree from the University of Heidelberg in 1936. The Henles are the most well known, however, for their research on Epstein-Barr virus. Their discovery of the relationship between Epstein-Barr virus and cancer demonstrated that the presence of certain viruses in the nucleus of a cell could transform a healthy cell into a malignant one. |
Werner and Gertrude Szpingier Henle were a prodigious force in
virology, immunology, and viral oncology during the second half the twentieth
century. Researching together, they explored the various mechanisms involved in
viral infection. A pragmatic research team, the Henles utilized their research
to develop methods of diagnosis and immunization from infectious diseases.
The Henles first received acclaim for their work on infectious
viruses. In 1943, they convincingly demonstrated the effectiveness of an
influenza vaccine. The development of a rapid test for diagnosing mumps and an
evaluation of a vaccine for mumps has also been credited to the Henles. In
cooperation with Dr. Joseph Stokes, Jr., the Henles demonstrated how gamma
globulin could be employed to hinder the development and proliferation of
infectious hepatitis.
In addition to their contributions to disease prevention, the Henles'
research on the mechanism of viral infections led to the discovery of three
disease states: latency, persistency, and viral interference. Their research on
viral interference laid the groundwork for the later discovery of interferon.
The Henles are the most well known, however, for their research on
Epstein-Barr virus. They demonstrated the causal relationship between
Epstein-Barr virus and infectious mononucleosis. Further research on
Epstein-Barr led the Henles to conclude that EBV aided in the development of
two human cancers, Burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. This
significant relationship between Epstein-Barr virus and cancer demonstrated
that the presence of certain viruses in the nucleus of a cell could transform a
healthy cell into a malignant one. Applying this discovery to current cancer
research, scientists are now studying how non-viral cancers are induced.
The Henles continued their research on Epstein-Barr virus and
disease-induced immunodeficiencies such as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome,
Hodgkins disease, ataxia-telangiectasia, Chediak-Higashi syndrome, and X-linked
lymphoproliferative syndrome until Werner's death in 1987. After his death,
Gertrude concluded their research.
Werner Henle, the son of a surgeon and grandson of
anatomist-histologist Jacob Henle, was born in Dortmund, Germany on August 27,
1910. He attended the University of Munich from 1929-1930 and transferred to
the University of Heidelberg in 1930 where he finished the course work needed
for medical degree in 1934. The Nazi regime posed threats for Werner whose
grandfather, Jacob Henle, was of Jewish descent (although baptized). Werner was
classified as 25% non-Aryan and was not permitted to finish the internship
required for the M.D. degree in any university, state or city hospital. Finding
a hospital to finish the required internship was difficult. Fortunately, Werner
was accepted at the Abteilung fur Pathologie of the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institut fur
Medizinische Forschung in Heidelberg. After being transferred to a low-profile
department at this institute, Werner completed the needed internship for his
medical degree. It became "increasingly clear" to Werner that he could "not
stay in Germany and pursue a career to my liking." Thus, Werner came to
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1936 after being granted an instructorship at the
University of Pennsylvania.
From 1936-1939, Werner served as an associate instructor in the
microbiology department at the Medical School of the University of
Pennsylvania. In 1937, Gertrude Szpingier, Werner's fiancee whom he had meet
during his years at University of Heidelberg, emigrated to the United States.
Gertrude was born in Mannheim, Germany on April 3, 1912. She received her
medical degree from the University of Heidelberg in 1936. The day after
Gertrude's arrival in America, she and Werner were married. Gertrude then
joined Werner as a faculty member in the microbiology department at the
University of Pennsylvania.
In 1939, Werner was promoted to associate professor in the virology
department, University of Pennsylvania. In 1940, he became a member of the
research team at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. One year later,
Gertrude joined Werner as an associate professor of virology at the University
of Pennsylvania and a member of the research staff at the Children's Hospital
of Philadelphia. After more than 45 years service to the University of
Pennsylvania, Werner and Gertrude retired from the University faculty in 1982.
They continued their research at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia until
a few months prior to Werner's death in July 1987.
Werner and Gertrude were members of many health organizations and
professional societies. They were active participants in the American Academia
of Microbiology, the Tissue Culture Association, and the Society for American
Microbiologists. Werner was also a member of the American Association of
Immunologists, the Society for General Microbiology, the American Public Health
Association, the New York Academia of Science, and the American Society for
Cancer Research. Werner served as a consultant for the United States Surgeon
General, the United States Army, and many different international health
committees and hospital boards. Among their many awards and honors, the Henles
received the Heart of Variety Show Bus Award in 1969; the Bristol-Meyers Award
for Distinguished Achievement in Cancer Research in 1979; the Mead Johnson
Award in 1950; the Billings Bronze Medal for Scientific Exhibit in 1953; the
Smith, Kline, and French Award for Excellence in Research in 1971; the
Robert-Koch-Medaille (one of West Germany's highest honors) in 1971; the Robert
de Villeirs Award of the Leukemia Society of America in 1975; the Founders in
Cancer Immunology Award from the Cancer Research Institute, Inc. in 1975; the
Virus Cancer Program Award from the National Cancer Institute in 1975; the
Scientific Award from the Philadelphia Chapter of the American Cancer Society
in 1977; and the Children's Hospital's Gold Medal Award in 1983.

The collection contains correspondence, lab notebooks, and the Henles'
unpublished autobiography (separately cataloged as MS C 460). The bulk of
material is from the 1970's and 1980's. A smaller portion of the collection
dates back to the 1950's and 1960's. The collection's prevalent emphasis is
professional research work and correspondence. Little personal correspondence
is included. The majority of materials are reflective of the research work
Werner and Gertrude Henle conducted at the University of Pennsylvania and the
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. While Werner and his wife Gertrude
conducted the majority of their research jointly, the correspondence is
predominately Werner's. Gertrude's involvement, however, can be more clearly
discerned in the lab notebooks in which she appeared to record lab results as
frequently as Werner. The collection would be valuable to any scholar
researching the history of virology and its practical application to disease
prevention as well as such topics in scientific research as procuring funding
for research, the necessity for collaboration in scientific studies and the
issue of gender in scientific research.
The collection is organized into 3 series: Correspondence, 1955-1987; Lab Notebooks, 1963-1987; Autobiography: Growing Up with Virology, [1986?].
The Lab Notebooks series contains 8 subseries: Epstein-Barr Virus Associated Malignancies and Immunodeficiencies; Epstein-Barr Asssociated Malignancies and Immunodeficiencies: Burkitt's Lymphoma and CaPNS; Epstein-Barr Associated Malignancies and Immunodeficiences: Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma; Epstein-Barr Virus Serology Studies; Herpes Studies; Infectious Mononucleosis And Chronic Mononucleosis Virus; Miscellaneous Notebooks; Multiple Sclerosis.

Lab Notebooks, 1963-1987
|
| The Henles' lab notebooks span their research work from 1963 to 1987. In these lab notebooks, the Henles recorded the raw data from their
experiments. The queries directing their research and an analysis of their
findings are often included in the notebooks. The notebooks came to the library
in binders with different headings. While the binders have been removed for
preservation reasons, the integrity of the notebooks has been maintained. The
headings that appeared on the binders were diverse - some listing researchers'
names, others subject names, and still others geographical locations of the
studies. |
|
|
|
|
| To create organization in the collection, the notebooks were placed in boxes according to subject matter. Original binder headings have been
preserved on the individual folders containing the notebooks. The box subject
headings are as follows: Epstein-Barr Virus Associated Malignancies and
Immunodeficiencies - General; Epstein-Barr Virus Associated Malignancies and
Immunodeficiencies - Burkitts Lymphoma; Epstein-Barr Virus associated
Malignancies and Immunodeficiencies -Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma; Epstein-Barr
Virus Serology Studies; Herpes Studies; Infectious and Chronic Mononucleosis
Studies; Miscellaneous Notebooks; Multiple Scoliosis Studies. |

Autobiography: Growing Up with Virology, [1986?]
|
| Call Number: MS C 460 |
|
|
|
|
| The Henles' autobiography appears to have been written by Werner Henle. Werner's narrative is insightful and full of personal vignettes that
give a sense of the Henles' daily lives as scientists. The autobiography also
provides an excellent chronology of their scientific research. Unfortunately,
the autobiography is limited due to the absence of Gertrude's perspective. In
his account of their professional lives, Werner did, however, address the issue
of sexism and how it influenced his wife's career. |
