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 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 کاملAging results in an unusual expression of Drosophila heat shock proteins.
We used high-resolution two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to evaluate the effect of aging on the heat shock response in Drosophila melanogaster. Although the aging process is not well understood at the molecular level, recent observations suggest that quantitative changes in gene expression occur as these fruit flies approach senescence. Such genetic alterations are in accord w...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of Drosophila melanogaster small heat-shock proteins.
We have investigated the developmental expression of the small heat-shock proteins (hsps) during embryogenesis and in adult flies by immunocytology using an antibody that specifically identifies the small hsps. Antibody staining of unstressed early embryos reveals a predominantly cytoplasmic, homogeneous distribution of the small hsps throughout the embryo. At 6h of development small hsp expres...
متن کاملHeat shock proteins.
The enhanced synthesis of a few proteins immediately after subjecting cells to a stress such as heat shock was first reported for drosophila cells in 1974 (l), and the universality of the response from bacteria to human was recognized shortly thereafter (reviewed in Ref. 2). In the ensuing 16 years, a vast literature has accumulated that describes a wide variety of events in a cell’s response t...
