Heat shock protein 27 phosphorylation state is associated with cancer progression
Understanding the mechanisms that control stress-induced survival is critical to explain how tumors frequently resist to treatment and to improve current anti-cancer therapies. Cancer cells are able to cope with stress and escape drug toxicity by regulating heat shock proteins (Hsps) expression and function. Hsp27 (HSPB1), a member of the small Hsp family, represents one of the key players of m...
متن کاملHeat shock protein 27 is associated with decreased survival in node-negative breast cancer patients.
BACKGROUND Heat shock protein 27 (hsp27) is a molecular chaperone which supports cells to keep their homeostasis under stressful conditions. It is associated with resistance to chemotherapeutics, radiation and hyperthermia. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the prognostic value of hsp27 for patients with node-negative breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Paraffin sections...
متن کاملHeat Shock Protein 60 Overexpression Is Associated with the Progression and Prognosis in Gastric Cancer
BACKGROUND Heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) is a chaperonin with essential functions for cell physiology and survival, and its expression correlates with prognosis in a number of malignancies. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship of HSP60 status with clinicopathological parameters and prognosis in gastric cancer. METHODS The levels of HSP60 and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9)...
متن کاملImmediate and transient phosphorylation of the heat shock protein 27 initiates chemoresistance in prostate cancer cells.
Drug resistance minimizes the effects of prostate cancer (PC) chemotherapy with docetaxel and is generally considered to be associated with the expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 27 including various cytoprotective pathways. In the present study, we investigated the effects of HSP27 phosphorylation on PC cell growth underlying docetaxel treatment. Cell counting revealed significantly reduce...
متن کاملInhibition of heat shock protein 27 phosphorylation promotes sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil in colorectal cancer cells
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the inhibition of HSP27 phosphorylation, which affects certain cellular functions, modulates sensitivity to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in colorectal cancer cells. Exposure to 5-FU in HCT116 and HCT15 cells expressing high levels of HSP27 with a low 5-FU sensitivity caused a minimal change in HSP27 expression, but induced the upregulation of HSP...
