Abstract
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) have dual functions, participating in both the stress response and a broad range of developmental processes. At physiological temperatures, it has been demonstrated in deuterostomes (vertebrates) and ecdysozoans (insects) that Hsps are expressed in tissues that are undergoing differentiation and morphogenesis. Here we investigate the developmental expression of Hsp70, Hsp90 and their regulatory transcription factor heat shock transcription factor (HSF) in the marine gastropod Haliotis asinina, a representative of the 3rd major lineage of bilaterian animals, the Lophotrochozoa. HasHsp70, HasHsp90 and HasHSF are maternally expressed in H. asinina and are progressively restricted to the micromere lineage during cleavage. During larval morphogenesis, they are expressed in unique and overlapping patterns in the prototroch, foot, and mantle. Hsp expression peaked in these tissues during periods of cell differentiation and morphogenesis, returning to lower levels after morphogenesis was complete. These patterns of Hsp and HSF expression in H. asinina are akin to those observed in ecdysozoans and deuterostomes, with Hsps being activated in cells and tissues undergoing morphogenesis.

Abstract
Transient focal ischemia induced in rat brain by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCAo) elicits a generalized induction of the 72 kDa heat-shock protein (hsp72) heralding functional recovery. As this effect implies activation of protein synthesis, and local systems of protein synthesis are present in brain synapses, and may be analyzed in preparations of brain synaptosomes, we evaluated hsp72 expression and protein synthesis in synaptosomal fractions of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) subjected to permanent MCAo. SHRs were randomly divided in ischemics and sham controls, anaesthesia controls and passive controls. Focal ischemia was induced under chloral hydrate anaesthesia by unilateral permanent MCAo. Protein synthesis was determined by [35S]methionine incorporation into synaptosomal proteins from ischemic and contralateral cortex/striatum, and from cerebellum. Hsp72 expression was measured in the same fractions by immunoblotting. Our data demonstrate that under these conditions synaptic hsp72 markedly increases in the ischemic hemisphere 1 and 2 days after MCAo, progressively declining in the following 2 days, while no significant change occurs in control rats. In addition, in the ischemic hemisphere the rate of synaptic protein synthesis increases more than two-fold between 1 and 4 days after MCAo, without showing signs of an impending decline. The present data provide the first demonstration that synaptic protein synthesis is massively involved in brain plastic events elicited by permanent focal ischemia.

Abstract
The developmental expression of heat shock protein 108 (HSP108) mRNA was mapped in chicken brain using in situ hybridization and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). RT-PCR showed that HSP108 mRNA increased from embryonic day 5 (E5) to 13 (E13), significantly decreased from E17 to E21 and then increased again at the adult stage. In situ hybridization showed that while intense HSP108 positive (HSP108+) signals were localized in the cerebellum from E7 to E14, the intensities of these signals were significantly decreased at E17. However, at the adult stage, HSP108 expression increased in a cell type dependent manner. A decrease in HSP108 mRNA expression during differentiation was also observed in an in vitro study of brain cells treated with nerve growth factor (NGF).

Abstract
Important stressful events occur at birth or within the few hours that follow this event. To unravel a possible involvement of stress proteins, it is important to determine their levels of expression. Expression of HSP27 protein was determined by Western blotting in several nonneural tissues and in brain regions of the developing pig (fetal to adult). Maximum levels of expression were observed in heart, liver, and lung. In kidney, the expression was reduced during the first hours of life. Brain parts included whole brain, cerebellum, cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and striatum. HSP27 immunogenicity was observed in all the brain regions studied. In whole brain, cerebellum, cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus extracts, the levels of HSP27 were decreased during the first hours of age (4 h to 2 d). In striatum, levels of expression were very low--if detectable--during the early postnatal days of life. Changes in environmental parameters, like temperature and/or hypoxia can be possibly related to differential expressions of HSPs, which can result in severe adverse developmental outcomes. The results are discussed in terms of using the newborn piglet as a model to study different forms of stress on the heat-shock protein postnatal expression.

Abstract
The expression of neuron-type glutamate transporters (EAAC-1), AMPA glutamate receptor subunits (GluR1 and GluR2/3), polyadenosine (5'diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP), and transforming growth factor-beta1 was investigated in 20 cases of neonatal pontosubicular neuron necrosis and 12 gestational-age matched controls. Developmental immunoreactivities of EAAC-1, GluR1, and GluR2/3 appeared in the neurons of the pontine nuclei at 29 to 30 weeks' gestation in controls, and then gradually increased with age. However, these activities were decreased in the pontine nucleus of patients with pontosubicular neuron necrosis. Decreases in these immunoreactivities might indicate early degeneration of neurons. Although PARP and transforming growth factor-beta1 immunoreactivity was insignificant or very weak in the pontine nuclei at any age in controls, PARP was markedly expressed in karyorrhectic neurons of the pontine nucleus in patients with pontosubicular neuron necrosis. Transforming growth factor-beta1 immunoreactivity was observed in nonkaryorrhectic neurons of the pontine nuclei. PARP could contribute to the pathogenesis of pontosubicular neuron necrosis more than EAAC-1 or GluR1 or GluR2/3. Transforming growth factor-beta1 could play a role in the protection and repair of damaged neurons.

Abstract
The development of the dopamine D2R receptors (D2R) in the human basal ganglia (BG) and thalamus was investigated in 25 normal brains by means of an immunohistochemical method and Western blotting. Immunoreactivity to D2R was detected in the cytoplasm and dendrites of small and large neurons in the BG and thalamus. D2R-positive neurons were clearly observed at 19 weeks of gestation (GW) in the globus pallidus and thalamus, and at 21 GW in the striatum. The number of D2R-positive neurons gradually increased and reached a peak at 27 GW in the globus pallidus, at 39 GW in the thalamus, and at 1 month of age in the striatum. The number of D2R-positive large neurons in the globus pallidus and small neurons in the striatum decreased after 1 year and about 10 years of age, respectively. Western blotting confirmed the specificity of the immunohistochemistry. Our results suggest that the D2R protein begins to be synthesized at an early fetal stage in the BG and thalamus, and the development of D2R is mostly consistent with neuronal maturation in the BG. D2R may play an important role in regulating the neuronal development of the BG. The decrease in D2R-positive neurons may be related to D2R post-transcriptional regulation.

Abstract
The development of AMPA-selective glutamate receptors (GluR1 and GluR2-3) in human basal ganglia (BG) was investigated in 23 normal brains by means of an immunohistochemical method. Immunoreactivity to GluR1 and 2-3 was detected in the cytoplasm and dendrites of small and large neurons in the BG. GluR2-3 immunoreactivity-positive neurons were clearly observed at 23-24 gestational weeks (GW) in the globus pallidus and at 32 GW in the neostriatum, and reached a peak at 32 GW and 39 GW, respectively. GluR2-3 positive neurons in the BG began to decrease at 1-4 months of age, reaching the low level of adults by 7 months of age. The developmental pattern of GluR1 was similar to that of GluR2-3 in the BG, but the immunoreactivity to GluR1 was a little weaker than that of GluR2-3 in the neostriatum. Furthermore, GluR1 and 2-3 subunit Western blotting confirmed the specificity of the immunohistochemistry. Our results suggest that the development of GluR1 and 2-3 in the BG is consistent with neuronal development in the BG, which supports further that GluR1 and 2-3 play an important role in neuronal differentiation and maturation of the BG.

Abstract
The auditory brainstem response (ABR) was compared with the immunohistochemical expression of heat shock protein (HSP-72) and microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP-2) of the brainstem auditory pathway in young rabbits subjected to hypoxic stress. Severe hypoxia for 2 h produced significant prolongation and decreased amplitude of the later component of ABR. HSP-72 expression was distinctly increased in the cochlear nucleus, but there was less induction in the inferior colliculus under severe hypoxia. MAP-2 immunostaining of neuropiles in the inferior collicular nucleus was decreased slightly after severe-long hypoxia, but cytoplasmic staining did not change. The present ABR change, which was produced by brainstem hypoxia-ischemia and acidosis, may be due to the neural cytoarchitectural derangement and less induction of stress proteins in the upper brainstem.

Abstract
We assessed cytochrome oxidase (CytOx) staining in sham-operated control piglets and in piglets subjected to 30 minutes of cerebral hypoxia-ischemia (H-I) plus 4 hours of reperfusion (REP). The 1-day-old piglets were sedated, anesthetized, and ventilated. Cerebral blood flows (CBFs) were quantitated using microspheres. H-I was induced by a combination of phlebotomy and cervical tourniquet; the brain was reperfused for four hours after 30 minutes of H-I. CBF was reduced during ischemia in experimental animals from 42 + 13 to 12 + 5 ml/min/100g. CytOx staining of hippocampal sections from 3 control and 3 experimental animals was compared. The staining of the stratum pyramidale neurons of the same portion of the CA1 sector in a single high power field was assessed in a blinded fashion in 4 corresponding sections from each animal, and graded from 0 = no staining to 3 = heavy staining. The results were compared using one-way analysis of variance. Cells with grade 3 staining were significantly more numerous in controls compared to H-I/REP animals (p = 0.03). There were significantly more cells with no CytOx staining in the experimental animals (p = 0.01). These findings suggest that CytOx staining in newborn piglet CA1 is a reliable method of assessing cell dysfunction after H-I.

Abstract
Expression of three heat shock proteins (HSPs), HSP70, HSP90, and immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (Bip) was examined in the developing rat retina using Northern blot analysis. The expression of the inducible form of HSP70 remained uniformly low throughout the perinatal period until P5 and increased rapidly at P7. On the other hand, the constitutive form of HSP70, HSP90, and Bip were expressed constitutively in the rat retina throughout the developmental stage except P3-P5, at which a transient decrease of the expression was observed. The increase of inducible HSP70 mRNA at P7 may correspond to the functional maturation of photoreception in the visual nervous system and may be one of the stress responses to photostimulation. The potential roles of each HSP during development of the rat visual system are discussed.
