HDAC Inhibitors and Heat Shock Proteins (Hsps)
Epigenetic alterations, including DNA acetylation, hypermethylation and hypomethylation, and the associated transcriptional changes of the affected genes are central to the evolution and progression of various human cancers, including pancreatic cancer. Cancer-associated epigenetic alterations are attractive therapeutic targets because such epigenetic alterations, unlike genetic changes, are po...
متن کاملExpression of heat shock proteins 27, 60 and 70 in oral carcinogenesis: An immunohistochemical study
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a class of functionally related proteins, the expression of which is increased when cells are exposed to elevated temperatures or other stresses, including infection, irradiation, heavy metals, ethanol, and oxidants. The aim of this study was to investigate the significance of HSP60, HSP70 and HSP27 as prognostic factors in different stages of oral carcinogenesis ...
متن کاملHeat shock and the heat shock proteins.
As all biologists appreciate, there is constant interaction between life and the environment, and temperature plays a critical role. It establishes distribution limits, it affects rates of function as well as the survival of organisms. Notoriously sensitive to temperature is plant growth. Critical steps in plant life such as germination, flowering and breaking of dormancy can be manipulated by ...
متن کاملInvolvement of 70-kD heat-shock proteins in peroxisomal import
This report describes the involvement of 70-kD heat-shock proteins (hsp70) in the import of proteins into mammalian peroxisomes. Employing a microinjection-based assay (Walton, P. A., S. J. Gould, J. R. Feramisco, and S. Subramani. 1992. Mol. Cell Biol. 12:531-541), we demonstrate that proteins of the hsp70 family were associated with proteins being imported into the peroxisomal matrix. Import ...
متن کاملInteraction between Arabidopsis heat shock transcription factor 1 and 70 kDa heat shock proteins.
The activity of the Arabidopsis heat shock transcription factor (HSF) is repressed at normal conditions but activated by cellular stresses. Circumstantial evidence suggests that HSP70 may function as a negative feedback regulator of HSF activity. Here the interaction between HSF and HSP70 is reported using electrophoretic mobility shift and yeast two-hybrid assays. Subdomain mapping indicates a...
