Heat-shock proteins protect cells from monocyte cytotoxicity: possible mechanism of self-protection
We have previously shown that major heat-shock protein (hsp 70) protects WEHI-S tumor cells from cytotoxicity mediated by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and TNF-beta. In the present study, the effect of altered expression of hsp70 and low molecular weight heat-shock protein, hsp27, on tumor cell sensitivity to monocytes and lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells was studied. Constitut...
متن کاملHeat shock proteins and cardiac protection.
The heat shock proteins (hsps) are expressed in normal cells but their expression is enhanced by a number of different stresses including heat and ischaemia. They play important roles in chaperoning the folding of other proteins and in protein degradation. In the heart a number of studies have shown that prior induction of the hsps by a mild stress has a protective effect against a more severe ...
متن کاملHDAC 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 کاملOverexpression of inducible heat shock protein 70 in Cos-1 cells fails to protect from cytotoxicity of oxidized ldls.
Oxidized low density lipoproteins (OxLDLs) are believed to play a central role in atherogenesis and to possess a wide variety of biological properties; among them, OxLDLs are cytotoxic to cultured vascular cells in that they induce necrosis and apoptosis. Moreover, OxLDLs are known to induce the expression of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), a protein that protects cells from several cytotoxic st...
متن کاملActivation of T cells recognizing self 60-kD heat shock protein can protect against experimental arthritis
Lewis rats are susceptible to several forms of experimental arthritis-induced using heat-killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis (adjuvant arthritis, or AA), streptococcal cell walls, collagen type II, and the lipoidal amine CP20961. Prior immunization with the mycobacterial 65-kD heat shock protein (hsp65) was reported to protect against AA, and other athritis models not using M. tuberculosis, via a...
