Abstract
Autophagy mediates the degradation of intracellular macromolecules and organelles within lysosomes. There are three types of autophagy: macroautophagy, microautophagy, and chaperone-mediated autophagy. Heat shock protein 70.1 (Hsp70.1) exhibits dual functions as a chaperone protein and a lysosomal membrane stabilizer. Since chaperone-mediated autophagy participates in the recycling of ∼30% cytosolic proteins, its disorder causes cell susceptibility to stress conditions. Cargo proteins destined for degradation such as amyloid precursor protein and tau protein are trafficked by Hsp70.1 from the cytosol into lysosomes. Hsp70.1 is composed of an N-terminal nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and a C-terminal domain that binds to cargo proteins, termed the substrate-binding domain (SBD). The NBD and SBD are connected by the interdomain linker LL1, which modulates the allosteric structure of Hsp70.1 in response to ADP/ATP binding. After the passage of the Hsp70.1-cargo complex through the lysosomal limiting membrane, high-affinity binding of the positive-charged SBD with negative-charged bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (BMP) at the internal vesicular membranes activates acid sphingomyelinase to generate ceramide for stabilizing lysosomal membranes. As the integrity of the lysosomal limiting membrane is critical to ensure cargo protein degradation within the acidic lumen, the disintegration of the lysosomal limiting membrane is lethal to cells. After the intake of high-fat diets, however, β-oxidation of fatty acids in the mitochondria generates reactive oxygen species, which enhance the oxidation of membrane linoleic acids to produce 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE). In addition, 4-HNE is produced during the heating of linoleic acid-rich vegetable oils and incorporated into the body via deep-fried foods. This endogenous and exogenous 4-HNE synergically causes an increase in its serum and organ levels to induce carbonylation of Hsp70.1 at Arg469, which facilitates its conformational change and access of activated μ-calpain to LL1. Therefore, the cleavage of Hsp70.1 occurs prior to its influx into the lysosomal lumen, which leads to lysosomal membrane permeabilization/rupture. The resultant leakage of cathepsins is responsible for lysosomal cell death, which would be one of the causative factors of lifestyle-related diseases.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are developmentally conserved families of protein found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. HSPs are engaged in a diverse range of physiological processes, including molecular chaperone activity to assist the initial protein folding or promote the unfolding and refolding of misfolded intermediates to acquire the normal or native conformation and its translocation and prevent protein aggregation as well as in immunity, apoptosis, and autophagy. These molecular chaperonins are classified into various families according to their molecular size or weight, encompassing small HSPs (e.g., HSP10 and HSP27), HSP40, HSP60, HSP70, HSP90, and the category of large HSPs that include HSP100 and ClpB proteins. The overexpression of HSPs is induced to counteract cell stress at elevated levels in a variety of solid tumors, including anticancer chemotherapy, and is closely related to a worse prognosis and therapeutic resistance to cancer cells. HSPs are also involved in anti-apoptotic properties and are associated with processes of cancer progression and development, such as metastasis, invasion, and cell proliferation. This review outlines the previously mentioned HSPs and their significant involvement in diverse mechanisms of tumor advancement and metastasis, as well as their contribution to identifying potential targets for therapeutic interventions.

ZNF330/NOA36 interacts with HSPA1 and HSPA8 and modulates cell cycle and proliferation in response to heat shock in HEK293 cells. Biol Direct 2023; 18:26. [PMID: 37254218 DOI: 10.1186/s13062-023-00384-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The human genome contains nearly 20.000 protein-coding genes, but there are still more than 6,000 proteins poorly characterized. Among them, ZNF330/NOA36 stand out because it is a highly evolutionarily conserved nucleolar zinc-finger protein found in the genome of ancient animal phyla like sponges or cnidarians, up to humans. Firstly described as a human autoantigen, NOA36 is expressed in all tissues and human cell lines, and it has been related to apoptosis in human cells as well as in muscle morphogenesis and hematopoiesis in Drosophila. Nevertheless, further research is required to better understand the roles of this highly conserved protein. RESULTS Here, we have investigated possible interactors of human ZNF330/NOA36 through affinity-purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS). Among them, NOA36 interaction with HSPA1 and HSPA8 heat shock proteins was disclosed and further validated by co-immunoprecipitation. Also, "Enhancer of Rudimentary Homolog" (ERH), a protein involved in cell cycle regulation, was detected in the AP-MS approach. Furthermore, we developed a NOA36 knockout cell line using CRISPR/Cas9n in HEK293, and we found that the cell cycle profile was modified, and proliferation decreased after heat shock in the knocked-out cells. These differences were not due to a different expression of the HSPs genes detected in the AP-MS after inducing stress. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that NOA36 is necessary for proliferation recovery in response to thermal stress to achieve a regular cell cycle profile, likely by interaction with HSPA1 and HSPA8. Further studies would be required to disclose the relevance of NOA36-EHR interaction in this context.

Abstract
Mortalin (GRP75, HSPA9A), a heat shock protein (HSP), regulates a wide range of cellular processes, including cell survival, growth, and metabolism. The regulatory functions of mortalin are mediated through a diverse set of protein partners associated with different cellular compartments, which allows mortalin to perform critical functions under physiological conditions, including mitochondrial protein quality control. However, alteration of mortalin's activities, its abnormal subcellular compartmentalization, and its protein partners turn mortalin into a disease-driving protein in different pathological conditions, including cancers. Here, mortalin's contributions to tumorigenic pathways are explained. Pathology information based on mortalin's RNA expression extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) transcriptomic database indicates that mortalin has an independent prognostic value in common tumors, including lung, breast, and colorectal cancer (CRC). Subsequently, the binding partners of mortalin reported in different cellular models, from yeast to mammalian cells, and its regulation by post-translational modifications are discussed. Finally, we focus on colorectal cancer and discuss how mortalin and its tumorigenic downstream protein targets are regulated by a ubiquitin-like protein through the 26S proteasomal degradation machinery. A broader understanding of the function of mortalin and its positive and negative regulation in the formation and progression of human diseases, particularly cancer, is essential for developing new strategies to treat a diverse set of human diseases critically associated with dysregulated mortalin.

Abstract
The review highlights various aspects of the influence of chaperones on amyloid proteins associated with the development of neurodegenerative diseases and includes studies conducted in our laboratory. Different sections of the article are devoted to the role of chaperones in the pathological transformation of alpha-synuclein and the prion protein. Information about the interaction of the chaperonins GroE and TRiC as well as polymer-based artificial chaperones with amyloidogenic proteins is summarized. Particular attention is paid to the effect of blocking chaperones by misfolded and amyloidogenic proteins. It was noted that the accumulation of functionally inactive chaperones blocked by misfolded proteins might cause the formation of amyloid aggregates and prevent the disassembly of fibrillar structures. Moreover, the blocking of chaperones by various forms of amyloid proteins might lead to pathological changes in the vital activity of cells due to the impaired folding of newly synthesized proteins and their subsequent processing. The final section of the article discusses both the little data on the role of gut microbiota in the propagation of synucleinopathies and prion diseases and the possible involvement of the bacterial chaperone GroE in these processes.

Abstract
Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) have been involved in different functions including chaperone activity, protein folding, apoptosis, autophagy and immunity. The HSP families have powerful effects on the stimulation of innate immune responses through Toll-like receptors and scavenger receptors. Moreover, HSP-mediated phagocytosis directly enhances the processing and presentation of internalized antigens via the endocytic pathway in adaptive immune system. These properties of HSPs have been used for development of prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines against infectious and noninfectious diseases. Several studies also demonstrated the relationship between HSPs and drug resistance as well as their use as a novel biomarker for detecting tumors in patients. The present review describes different roles of HSPs in biology and medicine especially biochemical and immunological aspects.

Abstract
Differentiation therapy can supplement the therapy of APL, but other subtypes of AML are treated principally with cytotoxic agents, with few lasting remissions. While the induction of monocyte followed by macrophage differentiation by vitamin D derivatives (VDDs) is dramatic in cultured AML cells of all subtypes, attempts to translate this to the clinic have not been effective. Thus, better understanding of the mechanisms underlying VDD-induced differentiation may improve this approach. The key events in this form of differentiation include increased expression of CD11b, and the transcription factor PU.1 is known to be a part of this process. We show here that in the transition of monocytes to macrophages induced by a VDD, ERK5, a member of the MAPK family of signaling molecules, prevents PU.1 expression. However, upon ERK5 inhibition PU.1 protein is stabilized by HSP70.Thus, ERK5 may be a target for manipulation of the immunoregulatory actions of macrophages in cancer.

Abstract
Sepsis, a devastating and often lethal complication of severe infection, is characterized by fever and dysregulated inflammation. While infections activate the inflammatory response in part through Toll-like receptors (TLRs), fever can partially activate the heat shock response with generation of heat shock proteins (HSPs). Since extracellular HSPs, especially HSP70 (eHSP70), are proinflammatory TLR agonists, we investigated how exposure to the TLR4 agonist, bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and febrile range hyperthermia (FRH; 39.5°C) modify HSP70 expression and extracellular release. Using differentiated THP1 cells, we found that concurrent exposure to FRH and LPS as well as TLR2 and TLR3 agonists synergized to activate expression of inducible HSP72 (HSPA1A) mRNA and protein via a p38 MAP kinase-requiring mechanism. Treatment with LPS for 6 h stimulated eHSP70 release; levels of eHSP70 released at 39.5°C were higher than at 37°C roughly paralleling the increase in intracellular HSP72 in the 39.5°C cells. By contrast, 6 h exposure to FRH in the absence of LPS failed to promote eHSP70 release. Release of eHSP70 by LPS-treated THP1 cells was inhibited by glibenclamide, but not brefeldin, indicating that eHSP70 secretion occurred via a non-classical protein secretory mechanism. Analysis of eHSP70 levels in exosomes and exosome-depleted culture supernatants from LPS-treated THP1 cells using ELISA demonstrated similar eHSP70 levels in unfractionated and exosome-depleted culture supernatants, indicating that LPS-stimulated eHSP70 release did not occur via the exosome pathway. Immunoblot analysis of the exosome fraction of culture supernatants from these cells showed constitutive HSC70 (HSPA8) to be the predominant HSP70 family member present in exosomes. In summary, we have shown that LPS stimulates macrophages to secrete inducible HSP72 via a non-classical non-exosomal pathway while synergizing with FRH exposure to increase both intracellular and secreted levels of inducible HSP72. The impact of increased macrophage intracellular HSP70 levels and augmented secretion of proinflammatory eHSP70 in the febrile, infected patient remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
Background Increasing evidence has revealed that humid heat stress (HHS) causes considerable damage to human health. The cardiovascular system has been suggested to be the primary target of heat stress, which results in serious cardiovascular diseases. However, there is still a lack of effective approaches for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases induced by HHS. Objective Heat-shock proteins (Hsps), especially Hsp70, are reported to provide effective cytoprotection under various stress stimuli. In the present study, we evaluated the cytoprotective effect of geranylgeranylacetone (GGA), which was previously been reported to induce Hsp70 expression in cardiomyocytes under HHS. Methods and Principal Findings Using a mouse model of HHS, we showed that the pretreatment of GGA enhanced Hsp70 expression under HHS, as examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. We then examined the effect of GGA pretreatment on the cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by HHS using terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining, and found that GGA pretreatment inhibited mitochondria-mediated apoptosis. GGA pretreatment could reverse the effect of HHS on cell apoptosis by increasing expression of Bcl-2, decreasing cytochrome c in cytosol, and increasing cytochrome c in mitochondria. However, GGA pretreatment had no effect on the oxidative stress induced by HHS as determined by levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH). Conclusion We have demonstrated that GGA pretreatment suppressed HHS-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes through the induction of Hsp70 overexpression.

Abstract
As an essential member of the HSP70 family, heat shock cognate 70 (Hsc70) is a constitutively expressed molecular chaperone involved in protein metabolism. In this paper, turbot Hsc70 was cloned and the expression profile was also analyzed. The full-length cDNA of the turbot Hsc70 was 2,292 bp in length, including a 113-bp 5' UTR, a 223-bp 3' UTR and a 1,956-bp open reading frame coding a protein with 651 amino acid residues. Comparison of amino acid sequence revealed the existence of three classical HSP70 family signature motifs, a signature nonapeptide and one repeat of tetrapeptide in turbot Hsc70. The turbot Hsc70-deduced amino acids sequence exhibited 75.4-96.8 % homology with Hsp70s/Hsc70s of 24 other known sequences. In particular, the strongest homology was found with the cognate members of Hsc70 subfamily and the highest identity was found with Japanese flounder Hsc70. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR revealed that turbot Hsc70 transcripts were stably expressed in all tested tissues under normal physiological condition, while the expression levels also increased (~1.5-fold to ~threefold) after heat shock and bacterial infection. In addition, Hsc70 transcripts were detected throughout embryonic development and in turbot embryonic cell line (TEC) in the absence of any stress. Meanwhile, it was also heat inducible, but not cold inducible in TEC. These results suggest that Hsc70 gene may be involved in embryogenesis and cellular protection events under normal and stress condition.

Abstract
The C terminus of Hsp70 interacting protein (CHIP) E3 ligase functions as a key regulator of protein quality control by binding the C-terminal (M/I)EEVD peptide motif of Hsp/c70(90) with its N-terminal tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain and facilitating polyubiquitination of misfolded client proteins via its C-terminal catalytic U-box. Using CFTR as a model client, we recently showed that the duration of the Hsc70-client binding cycle is a primary determinant of stability. However, molecular features that control CHIP recruitment to Hsp/c70, and hence the fate of the Hsp/c70 client, remain unknown. To understand how CHIP recognizes Hsp/c70, we utilized a dominant negative mutant in which loss of a conserved proline in the U-box domain (P269A) eliminates E3 ligase activity. In a cell-free reconstituted ER-associated degradation system, P269A CHIP inhibited Hsc70-dependent CFTR ubiquitination and degradation in a dose-dependent manner. Optimal inhibition required both the TPR and the U-box, indicating cooperativity between the two domains. Neither the wild type nor the P269A mutant changed the extent of Hsc70 association with CFTR nor the dissociation rate of the Hsc70-CFTR complex. However, the U-box mutation stimulated CHIP binding to Hsc70 while promoting CHIP oligomerization. CHIP binding to Hsc70 binding was also stimulated by the presence of an Hsc70 client with a preference for the ADP-bound state. Thus, the Hsp/c70 (M/I)EEVD motif is not a simple anchor for the TPR domain. Rather CHIP recruitment involves reciprocal allosteric interactions between its TPR and U-box domains and the substrate-binding and C-terminal domains of Hsp/c70.

Abstract
Chaperonic proteins, including inducible HSP70 (HSP70i) and constitutive HSP70 (HSC70), have been implicated as essential players in the cellular adaptive protection. Ensuing studies demonstrated that overexpression of either protein individually protects against thermal and oxidative challenges. The present study aimed to determine whether a concurrent overexpression of both HSC70 and HSP70i confers a better metabolic protection than the expression of each protein alone. Using a rat heart-derived H9c2 cardiac myoblast cell line, we found that HSP70i was rapidly induced within 2-8h following a mild thermal preconditioning (43°C for 20 min) in both parental cells and an established H9/70c clonal sub-line overexpressing HSC70. The level of HSP70i protein in heat pretreated H9/70c clonal cells reached only 50% of that in heat pretreated H9c2 parental cells. Nevertheless, protection against lethal hyperthermia, menadione (an oxidant) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) exposure in the pretreated H9/70c clonal cells was significantly higher than the sum of protection afforded by the early induction of HSP70i in the pretreated parental cells and protection afforded by the pre-existing HSC70 in the H9/70c cells without preconditioning. Using dosimetric analysis, we also found that menadione resistance in the pretreated parental cells increased linearly with cellular HSP70i level (10-300 ng/mg total protein). However, the resistance in the pretreated H9/70c cells showed a biphasic relationship with cellular HSP70i level; when HSP70i concentration reached >250 ng/mg protein, survivability after menadione exposure was markedly enhanced. Similar results were observed in H9c2 cells genetically manipulated to overexpress both HSC70 and HSP70i. The survival benefit against lethal hyperthermia, oxidant treatment, and hypoxia/reoxygenation conferred by a concerted HSC70 and HSP70i overexpression was greater than the sum of benefits contributed by individual protein overexpression. Together, these findings suggest that HSC70 and HSP70i may complement each other in a synergistic manner to preserve cellular integrity during metabolic challenges.

Abstract
Heat shock cognate protein 70 (HSC70) is a constitutively expressed molecular chaperone which belongs to the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family. HSC70 shares some of the structural and functional similarity with HSP70. HSC70 also has different properties compared with HSP70 and other heat shock family members. HSC70 performs its full functions by the cooperation of co-chaperones. It interacts with many other molecules as well and regulates various cellular functions. It is also involved in various diseases and may become a biomarker for diagnosis and potential therapeutic targets for design, discovery, and development of novel drugs to treat various diseases. In this article, we provide a comprehensive review on HSC70 from the literatures including the basic general information such as classification, structure and cellular location, genetics and function, as well as its protein association and interaction with other proteins. In addition, we also discussed the relationship of HSC70 and related clinical diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular, neurological, hepatic and many other diseases and possible therapeutic potential and highlight the progress and prospects of research in this field. Understanding the functions of HSC70 and its interaction with other molecules will help us to reveal other novel properties of this protein. Scientists may be able to utilize this protein as a biomarker and therapeutic target to make significant advancement in scientific research and clinical setting in the future.

Abstract
Triclosan (TCS, 5-chloro-2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenol) is commonly used in several personal care products, textiles, and children's toys. Because the removal of TCS by wastewater treatment plants is incomplete, its environmental fate is to be discharged into freshwater ecosystems, where its ecotoxicological impact is still largely unexplored. Previously, we began a structured multi-tiered approach in order to evaluate TCS toxicity in the freshwater mussel Dreissena polymorpha. The results of our previous studies, based on in vitro and in vivo experiments, highlighted a pronounced cytogenotoxic effect exerted by TCS, and showed that an increase in oxidative stress was likely to be one of its main toxic mechanisms. In this work, in order to investigate TCS toxicity mechanisms in aquatic non-target species in greater depth, we decided to use a proteomic approach, analysing changes in protein expression profiles in gills of D. polymorpha exposed for seven days to TCS. Moreover, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured to investigate further the role played by TCS in inducing oxidative stress. Finally, TCS bioaccumulation in mussel tissues was also assessed, to ensure an effective accumulation of the toxicant. Our results not only confirmed the role played by TCS in inducing oxidative stress, but furthered knowledge about the mechanism exerted by TCS in inducing toxicity in an aquatic non-target organisms. TCS induced significant alterations in protein expression profiles in gills of D. polymorpha. The wide range of proteins affected suggested that this chemical has marked effects on various biological processes, especially those involved in calcium binding or stress response. We also confirmed that the proteomic analysis, using 2-DE and de novo sequencing, is a reliable and powerful approach to investigate cellular responses to pollutants in a non-model organism with few genomic sequences available in databases.

Abstract
Few studies have focused on the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) after chronic heat stress. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of chronic high temperature-humidity index treatment on the expressions of HSP60, HSP70, HSP90, HSPA2 and HSC70, in the Rex rabbit testis and the expressions of these proteins after recovery from the chronic heat shock. Thirty mature male rabbits of the same age were randomly divided into three groups: control, heat stress, and recovery. The western blot results showed that the expressional levels of HSP60, HSP90, and HSC70 increased significantly and HSPA2 was elevated slightly after a 9-week heat treatment. HSP70 was absent in the control testis and had a high level of expression after heat stress. All of these proteins partially reverted back to normal levels after a 9-week recovery. The immunohistochemical results indicated that the expression patterns of HSP60, HSP90, HSPA2, and HSC70 did not change.

Abstract
Hsc70 plays a productive role during cotranslational cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator folding that is outweighed by its dominant contribution to posttranslational targeting to the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Moreover, the outcome of Hsc70 binding appears highly sensitive to the duration of its binding cycle, which is governed by regulatory cochaperones. The Hsp/c70 cytosolic chaperone system facilitates competing pathways of protein folding and degradation. Here we use a reconstituted cell-free system to investigate the mechanism and extent to which Hsc70 contributes to these co- and posttranslational decisions for the membrane protein cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Hsc70 binding to CFTR was destabilized by the C-terminal domain of Bag-1 (CBag), which stimulates client release by accelerating ADP-ATP exchange. Addition of CBag during CFTR translation slightly increased susceptibility of the newly synthesized protein to degradation, consistent with a profolding function for Hsc70. In contrast, posttranslational destabilization of Hsc70 binding nearly completely blocked CFTR ubiquitination, dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum, and proteasome-mediated cleavage. This effect required molar excess of CBag relative to Hsc70 and was completely reversed by the CBag-binding subdomain of Hsc70. These results demonstrate that the profolding role of Hsc70 during cotranslational CFTR folding is counterbalanced by a dominant and essential role in posttranslational targeting to the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Moreover, the degradative outcome of Hsc70 binding appears highly sensitive to the duration of its binding cycle, which is in turn governed by the integrated expression of regulatory cochaperones.

Abstract
Bidimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) protocols were adapted on Chamelea gallina digestive glands studies by the analysis of Heat Shock Proteins (HSP) compared with monodimensional electrophoresis (1-DE) results. Because polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) act on HSPs, C. gallina specimens were exposed to 0.5 mg/L of benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) for 24 h, 7 and 12 days. Immunoblotting after 1-DE showed a single band of 70 kDa significantly induced after 7 days of B[a]P exposure. After 2-DE, eight major high-resolved spots between 17 and 98 kDa were revealed. Three spots fell within the range of 62-98 kDa and of 5-6 pI, parameters which could include HSP70. Two spots of 77 and 72 kDa, obtained after 2-DE immunoblotting, could correspond to constitutive HSC70 and to inducible HSP70 forms respectively. Changes observed in inducible and in constitutive forms might be related to an adaptation to stress and to a normal protein synthesis capability, respectively. Employment of 2-DE and relationship between HSP70 and HSC70 may be useful to clarify their role in molluscs subjected to stress events.

Abstract
RATIONALE The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) encodes the α subunit of the potassium current I(Kr). It is highly expressed in cardiomyocytes and its mutations cause long QT syndrome type 2. Heat shock protein (Hsp)70 is known to promote maturation of hERG. Hsp70 and heat shock cognate (Hsc70) 70 has been suggested to play a similar function. However, Hsc70 has recently been reported to counteract Hsp70. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether Hsc70 counteracts Hsp70 in the control of wild-type and mutant hERG stability. METHODS AND RESULTS Coexpression of Hsp70 with hERG in HEK293 cells suppressed hERG ubiquitination and increased the levels of both immature and mature forms of hERG. Immunocytochemistry revealed increased levels of hERG in the endoplasmic reticulum and on the cell surface. Electrophysiological studies showed increased I(Kr). All these effects of Hsp70 were abolished by Hsc70 coexpression. Heat shock treatment of HL-1 mouse cardiomyocytes induced endogenous Hsp70, switched mouse ERG associated with Hsc70 to Hsp70, increased I(Kr), and shortened action potential duration. Channels with disease-causing missense mutations in intracellular domains had a higher binding capacity to Hsc70 than wild-type channels and channels with mutations in the pore region. Knockdown of Hsc70 by small interfering RNA or heat shock prevented degradation of mutant hERG proteins with mutations in intracellular domains. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate reciprocal control of hERG stability by Hsp70 and Hsc70. Hsc70 is a potential target in the treatment of LQT2 resulting from missense hERG mutations.

Abstract
Human neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have been termed "protein misfolding disorders." Upregulation of heat shock proteins that target misfolded aggregation-prone proteins has been proposed as a potential therapeutic strategy to counter neurodegenerative disorders. The heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family is well characterized for its cytoprotective effects against cell death and has been implicated in neuroprotection by overexpression studies. HSP70 family members exhibit sequence and structural conservation. The significance of the multiplicity of HSP70 proteins is unknown. In this study, coimmunoprecipitation was employed to determine if association of HSP70 family members occurs, including Hsp70B' which is present in the human genome but not in mouse and rat. Heteromeric complexes of Hsp70B', Hsp70, and Hsc70 were detected in differentiated human SH-SY5Y neuronal cells. Hsp70B' also formed complexes with Hsp40 suggesting a common co-chaperone for HSP70 family members.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Exposure of marine invertebrates to high temperatures leads to a switch from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism, a drop in the cellular ATP concentration([ATP]), and subsequent death. In mammals, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)is a major regulator of cellular [ATP] and activates ATP-producing pathways,while inhibiting ATP-consuming pathways. We hypothesized that temperature stress in marine invertebrates activates AMPK to provide adequate concentrations of ATP at increased but sublethal temperatures and that AMPK consequently can serve as a stress indicator (similar to heat shock proteins,HSPs). We tested these hypotheses through two experiments with the rock crab, Cancer irroratus. First, crabs were exposed to a progressive temperature increase (6°C h–1) from 12 to 30°C. AMPK activity, total AMPK protein and HSP70 levels, reaction time, heart rate and lactate accumulation were measured in hearts at 2°C increments. AMPK activity remained constant between 12 and 18°C, but increased up to 9.1(±1.5)-fold between 18 and 30°C. The crabs' reaction time also decreased above 18°C. By contrast, HSP70 (total and inducible) and total AMPK protein expression levels did not vary significantly over this temperature range. Second, crabs were exposed for up to 6 h to the sublethal temperature of 26°C. This prolonged exposure led to a constant elevation of AMPK activity and levels of HSP70 mRNA. AMPK mRNA continuously increased,indicating an additional response in gene expression. We conclude that AMPK is an earlier indicator of temperature stress in rock crabs than HSP70,especially during the initial response to high temperatures. We discuss the temperature-dependent increase in AMPK activity in the context of Shelford's law of tolerance. Specifically, we describe AMPK activity as a cellular marker that indicates a thermal threshold, called the pejus temperature, Tp. At Tp the animals leave their optimum range and enter a temperature range with a limited aerobic scope for exercise. This Tp is reached periodically during annual temperature fluctuations and has higher biological significance than earlier described critical temperatures, at which the animals switch to anaerobic metabolism and HSP expression is induced.

Abstract
In the present study, we identified and characterized an inducible heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) from the midge Chironomus dilutus and investigated the transcriptional profile of the gene under baseline and environmentally stressful conditions. Using real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), we observed increased expression of CD-HSP70-1 in response to both heat shock and copper stress. We also investigated the expression of this gene during midge development. All C. dilutus developmental stages expressed CD-HSP70-1 under normal conditions, although at extremely low levels. Phylogenetic analysis of the amino acid sequence demonstrated distinct clustering of this gene with inducible HSP70s from other insect species.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are, in general, prosurvival molecules within the cellular environment, and the overexpression of even just 1 family of HSPs can lead to protection against and improvements after a variety of stressors. Not surprisingly, a fertile area of study has grown out of efforts to exploit the innate biologic behaviour of HSPs. Exercise, because of the inherent physiologic stresses associated with it, is but 1 stimulus that can result in a robust increase in various HSPs in several tissues, not the least of which happen to be the heart and skeletal muscle. The purpose of this review is to introduce the reader to the major HSP families, the control of their expression, and some of their biologic functions, specifically with respect to the influence of exercise. Moreover, as the first in a series of reviews from a common symposium, we will briefly introduce the concepts presented by the other authors, which include the effects of different exercise paradigms on skeletal muscle HSPs in the adult and aged systems, HSPs as regulators of inflammation, and the ion channel stabilizing effects of HSPs.

Abstract
Mammalian cells cultured in vitro are able to recover from cold stress. However, the mechanisms activated during cold stress and recovery are still being determined. We here report the effects of hypothermia on cellular architecture, cell cycle progression, mRNA stability, protein synthesis and degradation in three mammalian cell lines. The cellular structures examined were, in general, well maintained during mild hypothermia (27-32 degrees C) but became increasingly disrupted at low temperatures (4-10 degrees C). The degradation rates of all mRNAs and proteins examined were much reduced at 27 degrees C, and overall protein synthesis rates were gradually reduced with temperature down to 20 degrees C. Proteins involved in a range of cellular activities were either upregulated or downregulated at 32 and 27 degrees C during cold stress and recovery. Many of these proteins were molecular chaperones, but they did not include the inducible heat shock protein Hsp72. Further detailed investigation of specific proteins revealed that the responses to cold stress and recovery are at least partially controlled by modulation of p53, Grp75 and eIF3i levels. Furthermore, under conditions of severe cold stress (4 degrees C), lipid-containing structures were observed that appeared to be in the process of being secreted from the cell that were not observed at less severe cold stress temperatures. Our findings shed light on the mechanisms involved and activated in mammalian cells upon cold stress and recovery.

Abstract
The 70-kDa heat shock proteins (Hsp70s) are highly conserved ATP-dependent molecular chaperones composed of an N-terminal nucleotide binding domain (NBD) and a C-terminal protein substrate binding domain (SBD) in a bilobate structure. Interdomain communication and nucleotide-dependent structural motions are critical for Hsp70 chaperone functions. Our understanding of these functions remains elusive due to insufficient structural information on intact Hsp70s that represent the different states of the chaperone cycle. We report here the crystal structures of DnaK from Geobacillus kaustophilus HTA426 bound with ADP-Mg(2+)-P(i) at 2.37A and the 70-kDa heat shock cognate protein from Rattus norvegicus bound with ADP-P(i) at 3.5A(.) The NBD and SBD in these structures are significantly separated from each other, and they might depict the ADP-bound conformation. Moreover, a Trp reporter was introduced at the potential interface region between NBD and the interdomain linker of GkDnaK to probe environmental changes. Results from fluorescence measurements support the notion that substrate binding enhances the domain-disjoining behavior of Hsp70 chaperones.

Abstract
A low-protein (LP) diet induces injury from energy depletion in renal epithelial cells. Overexpression of heat-shock proteins has been implicated in the restoration of the cytoskeletal anchorage of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase. We tested if Hsp70 stabilizes renal Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase attachment to the cytoskeleton from the cortex and the outer stripe of the outer medulla (OSOM) in rats during recovery from a LP diet. Rats were fed with a LP diet (8% protein) for 14 days, and then the rats were recovered with a 24% protein (RP) diet. The control group received a 24% protein (NP) diet. Increased Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase dissociation was demonstrated in soluble fraction from OSOM with lower ATP content as a result of LP diet vs NP. Meanwhile, decreased Hsp70 levels in the same fraction were shown. Translocation of Hsp70 to the cytoskeletal injured fraction associated with stabilization of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase was shown in OSOM from LP after in vitro co-incubation of the cytoskeletal fraction of LP and non-cytoskeletal fraction of RP. These effects were abolished by the addition of the anti-Hsp70 antibody. Absence of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase detachment from its cytoskeletal anchorage was demonstrated in proximal duct segments from cortex in LP. Co-immunoprecipitation showed that the amount of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase co-precipitating with Hsp70 increased in the OSOM as a result of the LP diet. In the cortex tissues from rats fed the LP and the RP diet, the interaction of both proteins were similar to the control groups. Our results indicate that Hsp70 has a critical role in protecting the integrity of the cytoskeletal anchorage of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase during recovery from ATP-depleted injury resulting from LP in OSOM.

Abstract
Apoptosis contributes to cell death after cerebral ischaemia. A quantitative proteomics approach has been employed to define alterations in protein levels in apoptosis induced with staurosporine (STS). Human neuroblastoma derived SH-SY5Y cells were treated with STS (500 nM for 6 h) to induce apoptosis. Quantitative 2-DE was used to determine the changing protein levels with MALDI-TOF MS identification of proteins. Of the 154 proteins analysed, 13 proteins were significantly altered as a result of the apoptotic stimulus; ten of the proteins showed an increase in level with STS and were identified as heat shock cognate 71 (Hsc71), two isoforms of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), glucose regulated protein 78 (GRP78), F-actin capping protein, stress-induced phosphoprotein 1, chromatin assembly factor 1 (CAF-1), protein disulphide isomerase A3 (PDI A3) precursor, transitional ER ATPase and actin interacting protein 1 (AIP 1). Three proteins which displayed significant decrease in levels with STS were identified as tubulin, vimentin and glucose regulated protein 94 (GRP94). The functional roles and subcellular locations of these proteins collectively indicate that STS-induced apoptosis provokes induces an unfolded protein response involving molecular chaperones, cochaperones and structural proteins indicative of ER stress.

Abstract
Numerous reports document that the 70 kDa heat shock proteins are not only intracellular proteins but are also present in blood and other extracellular compartments. How they affect cell function from the extracellular space remains unclear. Using two well-characterized cell types from the sea urchin, we show that extracellular mixtures of the constitutive and inducible forms of the 70 kDa heat shock proteins (Hsc70 and Hsp70, respectively) have dramatic effects on initiation of cell division in fertilized eggs and on the clotting reaction of hypotonically stressed coelomocytes. In suspensions of fertilized eggs to which Hsc70 or a 2:3 mixture of Hsc and Hsp70 was added, progression to the first mitotic division was accelerated. Evidence is provided that the extracellular Hsc70 passes into the egg cells in an unconventional manner, being distributed through the cytoplasm, and that it may alter the intracellular signaling cascade initiated by sperm penetration. In coelomocytes that were stimulated by hypotonic shock to mimic injury, the spreading reaction of the clotting response was significantly inhibited when either Hsp70 or Hsc70 was in the medium. These results suggest that the presence of Hsc and/or Hsp70 in the extracellular fluid may promote mitosis of dividing cells and suppress the reactivity of immune system cells.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play an important role in the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, particularly in response to stressful conditions that adversely affect normal cellular structure and function, such as hyperthermia. A remarkable intrinsic resistance of brain to hyperthermia reflects protection mediated by constitutive and induced expression of HSPs in both neurons and glia. Induced expression underlies the phenomenon of hyperthermic pre-reconditioning, where transient, low-intensity heating induces HSPs that protect brain from subsequent insult, reflecting the prolonged half-life of HSPs. The expression and activity of HSPs that is characteristic of nervous tissue plays a role not just in the maintenance and defense of cellular viability, but also in the preservation of neuron-specific luxury functions, particularly those that support synaptic activity. In response to hyperthermia, HSPs mediate preservation or rapid recovery of synaptic function up to the point where damage in other organ systems becomes evident and life threatening. Given the ability of HSPs to enhance gene expression by neurotropic viruses, the constitutive and inducible HSP expression profiles would seem to place nervous tissues at risk. However, we present evidence that the virus-HSP relationship can promote viral clearance in animals capable of mounting effective virus-specific cell-mediated immune responses, potentially reflecting HSP-dependent increases in viral antigenic burden, immune adjuvant effects and cross-presentation of viral antigen. Thus, the protective functions of HSPs span the well-characterized intracellular roles as chaperones to those that may directly or indirectly promote immune function.

Abstract
This study examines how age affects the first phase of the heat shock response in human T-cells. To understand how age alters transcriptional regulation of the heat shock genes, a cross-sectional study was conducted utilizing human T-cells enriched from peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy young (20-40 years old) and old (>70 years old) donors. Nuclear run-on analysis revealed a 66% reduction in hsp70 transcription rates in old compared to young nuclei harvested from T-cells exposed to a brief 42 degrees C heat shock. To determine if one or more protein transactivators of the proximal and distal promoter regions of the hsp70 gene were affected by age, gel shift analysis was performed. Both HSF1 and SP1 DNA-binding were reduced with age but no reduction was noted in CCAAT-DNA binding. Western blot analysis indicated that HSF1 but not HSF2 protein levels were reduced in aged donor samples. These data suggest that human T-cell senescence involves a multi-factorial mechanism that diminishes an important transcriptional response to thermal stress. The results are discussed relative to recent studies that support a multi-factorial mechanism for age-dependent attenuation of the heat shock transcription factor.

Abstract
The dependence of developing spinal motoneuron survival on a soluble factor(s) from their target, muscle tissue is well established both in vivo and in vitro. Considering this apparent dependence, we examined whether a specific component of the stress response mediates motoneuron survival in trophic factor-deprived environments. We demonstrate that, although endogenous expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) did not change during trophic factor deprivation, application of e-rhHsp70 (exogenous recombinant human Hsp70) promoted motoneuron survival. Conversely, depletion of HSP70 from chick muscle extract (MEx) potently reduces the survival-promoting activity of MEx. Additionally, exogenous treatment with or spinal cord overexpression of Hsp70 enhances motoneuron survival in vivo during the period of naturally occurring cell death [programmed cell death (PCD)]. Hindlimb muscle cells and lumbar spinal astrocytes readily secrete HSP70 in vitro, suggesting potential physiological sources of extracellular Hsp70 for motoneurons. However, in contrast to exogenous treatment with or overexpression of Hsp70 in vivo, muscle-targeted injections of this factor in an ex vivo preparation fail to attenuate motoneuron PCD. These data (1) suggest that motoneuron survival requirements may extend beyond classical trophic factors to include HSP70, (2) indicate that the source of this factor is instrumental in determining its trophic function, and (3) may therefore influence therapeutic strategies designed to increase motoneuron Hsp70 signaling during disease or injury.

Abstract
Stress-inducible Hsp70i and constitutively expressed Hsc70 are highly related heat shock proteins. Aberrant expression levels and intracellular localization of these proteins has been suggested as a potential marker in certain tumors. The aim of our study was to work out a reliable, immunohistochemical detection of the stress-inducible Hsp70i protein and enabling discrimination between Hsp70i and Hsc70 proteins in paraffin-embedded human tissues. We tested the effect of several fixative procedures and antigen retrieval on the effectiveness of the Hsp70i detection in murine cells cultured in vitro and in liver of rats subjected to heat shock. For cells grown in vitro, specific Hsp70i immunoreactivity was obtained with all fixatives used. However, samples fixed in 10% formalin and 4% paraformaldehyde required antigen retrieval. In liver tissue embedded in paraffin, regardless the fixative used, positive Hsp70i staining could be visible only if antigen retrieval was applied. We applied this procedure for detection of Hsp70i in routine sections of breast and lung cancers fixed with 10% formalin and found that the application of thermal antigen retrieval significantly enhanced the SPA810 immunoreactivity and reduced background staining. This procedure enabled also the differential detection of Hsp70i and Hsc70 in routine histopathological preparations.

Abstract
All cells, from bacterial to human, have a common, intricate response to stress that protects them from injury. Heat shock proteins (Hsps), also known as stress proteins and molecular chaperones, play a central role in protecting cellular homeostatic processes from environmental and physiologic insult by preserving the structure of normal proteins and repairing or removing damaged ones. An understanding of the interplay between Hsps and cell stress tolerance will provide new tools for treatment and drug design that maximise preservation or restoration of health. For example, the increased vulnerability of tissues to injury in some conditions, such as ageing, diabetes mellitus and menopause, or with the use of certain drugs,, such as some antihypertensive medications, is associated with an impaired Hsp response. Additionally, diseases that are associated with tissue oxidation, free radical formation, disorders of protein folding, or inflammation, may be improved therapeutically by elevated expression of Hsps. The accumulation of Hsps, whether induced physiologically, pharmacologically, genetically, or by direct administration of the proteins, is known to protect the organism from a great variety of pathological conditions, including myocardial infarction, stroke, sepsis, viral infection, trauma, neurodegenerative diseases, retinal damage, congestive heart failure, arthritis, sunburn, colitis, gastric ulcer, diabetic complications and transplanted organ failure. Conversely, lowering Hsps in cancer tissues can amplify the effectiveness of chemo- or radiotherapy. Treatments and agents that induce Hsps include hyperthermia, heavy metals (zinc and tin), salicylates, dexamethasone, cocaine, nicotine, alcohol, alpha-adrenergic agonists, PPAR-gamma agonists, bimoclomol, geldanamycin, geranylgeranylacetone and cyclopentenone prostanoids. Compounds that suppress Hsps include quercetin (a bioflavinoid), 15-deoxyspergualin (an immunosuppressive agent) and retinoic acid. Researchers who are cognisant of the Hsp-related effects of these and other agents will be able to use them to develop new therapeutic paradigms.

Abstract
The purposes of this study were to assess the expression patterns of heat shock proteins (Hsps), after eyeball heating or cooling, and to elucidate their relationships with corneal wound healing and intraocular complications after excimer laser treatment. Experimental mice were grouped into three according to local pretreatment type: heating, cooling, and control groups. The preconditioning was to apply saline eyedrops onto the cornea prior to photoablation. Following photoablation, we evaluated corneal wound healing, corneal opacity and lens opacity. Hsp expression patterns were elucidated with Western blot and immunohistochemical staining. The heating and cooling groups recovered more rapidly, and showed less corneal and lens opacity than the control group. In the heating and cooling groups, there were more expressions of Hsps in the cornea and lens than in the control group. These results were confirmed in the Hsp 70.1 knockout mouse model. Our study showed that Hsps were induced by the heating or cooling preconditioning, and appeared to be a major factor in protecting the cornea against serious thermal damage. Induced Hsps also seemed to play an important role in rapid wound healing, and decreased corneal and lens opacity after excimer laser ablation.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to demonstrate the expression of heat shock (HS) genes in human cells in response to extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) alone and in combination with thermal stress. After exposing human myeloid leukemia (HL-60) cells to the stressor(s) for 30 min we quantified the expression of the HS genes HSP27, HSP60, HSP70 (A, B, and C), HSC70, HSP75, HSP78, and HSP90 (alpha and beta) by RT-PCR. The results clearly show that HS genes, in particular the three HSP70 genes (A, B, and C), are induced by ELF-EMF, a reaction that is enhanced by simultaneous HS (43 degrees C for 30 min). The results show similarities and some significant differences to previous experiments in which transgenic nematodes were used to monitor the induction of the HSP70 gene under similar stress conditions. We also studied the effect of different flux densities on gene expression in the range of 10-140 microT. Even the lowest dose tested (10 microT) resulted in a significant induction of the genes HSP70A, HSP70B, and HSP70C. The reaction to ELF-EMF shows a maximum at a flux density of 60-80 microT. The unusual dose-response relation reveals an interesting difference to other stressors that elicit the HS response.

Abstract
In the adult central nervous system (CNS), prominent reactive astrocytosis is seen in acute traumatic brain injury, neurodegenerative diseases and a variety of viral infections. Reactive astrocytes synthesize a number of factors that could play different roles in neuronal regeneration. In this study, the effects of thermal stress were evaluated on nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation and proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) secretion in primary astrocytic cultures. The ability of HSP70-positive astrocytes to support or inhibit neurite outgrowth was investigated in neuron-astrocyte cocultures. Cultured astrocytes from cerebral cortex of rats were exposed to transient hyperthermia (42 degrees C/30 min) and incubated at 37 degrees C for different periods of recovery. During HSP70 accumulation, astrocytes extended large and thick processes associated to rearrangement of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) filaments and an increase in protein synthesis and GFAP, suggesting an astrogliosis event. A delay of NF-kappaB activation appeared closely related to TNF-alpha secretion by HSP70-positive astrocytes. These cells demonstrated a functional shift from neurite growth-promoting to non-permissive substrate. We also found that gliotoxin, a specific NF-kappaB inhibitor, partially abrogated the inhibitory ability of reactive astrocytes. These findings may suggest a involvement of NF-kappaB and TNF-alpha in modulating the failure of HSP70-positive astrocytes to provide functional support to neuritic outgrowth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We recently designed an in vitro system based on differential Triton-extractability of Na,K-ATPase from the cytoskeletal protein fraction isolated from rat renal cortex after renal ischemia. In the present study, we hypothesized that heat shock protein (HSP)-70, HSP-25 and HSP-90 work synergistically to stabilize the cytoskeletal anchorage of Na,K-ATPase. METHODS Cellular proteins were fractionated by differential centrifugation into cytoskeletal pellets (I-PEL) obtained early (exhibiting abnormally high Triton extractability of Na,K-ATPase) and non-cytoskeletal supernatants (R-SUP) obtained late (exhibiting high abundance of HSP) after renal ischemia. For assessment of the role of HSP-70, HSP-25 and HSP-90 upon in vitro re-compartmentalization, I-PEL was either incubated in R-SUP with/without HSP antibodies, or in buffer with/without HSPs at different titers and combinations. Effects were evaluated by changes of Triton extractability of Na,K-ATPase after co-incubation. RESULTS R-SUP was shown to contain significant amounts of HSP-70, HSP-25 and HSP-90. Incubation of I-PEL in R-SUP reduced Triton extractability of Na,K-ATPase. Addition of antibodies against each HSP significantly abolished these effects of R-SUP. Incubation of I-PEL with purified HSP-70, HSP-25 or HSP-90 each partly reproduced the effects of R-SUP, whereas the combination of all three HSP demonstrated a strong and more than additive effect on the cytoskeletal stabilization of Na,K-ATPase. CONCLUSIONS The molecular mechanisms responsible for postischemic re-compartmentalization of Na,K-ATPase in rat renal cortex likely involves interactions between HSP-70, HSP-25 and HSP-90, stress proteins known to be induced in the ischemic kidney.

Abstract
1. In the present study, we assessed the protective effects of chronic hypoxia preconditioning against heatstroke-induced injury in urethane-anaesthetized rats. Heatstroke was induced by exposing the animals to an ambient temperature of 42 degrees C. The time at which both the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and local cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the striatum began to decrease from peak levels was taken as the onset of heatstroke. Control rats were exposed to a temperature of 24 degrees C. 2. Mean arterial pressure, CBF, blood pH, PaO2, PaCO2 and survival time (the interval between onset of heatstroke and cardiac arrest) after heat stress were all lower than in control rats (in which 'survival time' was defined as > 360 min). However, blood lactate concentrations were greater in rats exposed to heat. Rats placed at high altitude (HA), when exposed to the same heat stress (42 degrees C) survived much longer (113 +/- 26 min; n = 8) than rats maintained at sea level (SL; 20 +/- 2 min; n = 8). 3. After the onset of heatstroke, blood pH and lactate concentrations were found to be significantly higher and lower, respectively, in HA rats than in SL rats. 4. Western blot assay revealed that chronic hypoxia preconditioning induced heat shock protein (HSP) 72 expression in both the kidneys and lungs. 5. Thus, it appears that the observed benefit of chronic hypoxia preconditioning is related to attenuation of tissue acidification and elevations of HSP72 expression in both kidneys and lungs during heatstroke.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid hormone receptor exists in the cytoplasm of target cells in the form of dynamic multiprotein heterocomplexes with heat shock proteins Hsp90 and Hsp70, and additional components of the molecular chaperone machinery. Whole body hyperthermic stress was previously shown to induce alterations in protein composition of these complexes increasing the share of Hsp70, but participation of individual Hsp70 family members was not investigated. In the present study the association of glucocorticoid receptor with constitutive and inducible forms of Hsp70 in the liver cytosol of rats exposed to 41 degrees C whole body hyperthermic stress was examined. Immunoprecipitation of glucocorticoid receptor heterocomplexes by monoclonal anti-receptor antibody (BuGR2) followed by quantitative immunoblotting revealed the presence of both nucleocytoplasmic Hsp70 family members, constitutive--Hsc70 and inducible--Hsp72, within the complexes. Immediately after the stress only Hsc70 was found in association with glucocorticoid receptor. However, after the induction of Hsp72 by stress, its appearance within the glucocorticoid receptor heterocomplexes was also recorded and the presence of both Hsp70 forms within the heterocomplexes was evident by the end of examined 24h period after the stress. This study confirms that heat stress affects protein composition of rat liver glucocorticoid receptor heterocomplexes increasing the share of Hsp70 and shows that this increase could be equally ascribed to constitutive and inducible forms of Hsp70.

Abstract
1. The effect of long-term treatment of rats with chronic heart failure (CHF) following acute myocardial infarction with trandolapril, an angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, on heat shock-induced Hsp72 and Hsp73 production was examined. 2. Acute myocardial infarction was induced by coronary artery ligation (CAL). The animals with CAL showed symptoms of CHF at the 8th week after the operation. The hearts isolated from animals with CAL at the 2nd and 8th week after surgery were subjected to hyperthermia at 42 degrees C for 15 min followed by 6-h perfusion (hyperthermia/6-h perfusion). 3. In the hearts isolated from the animals at the 2nd week, an approximate 20% decline in the rate pressure product (RPP) was seen after hyperthermia/6-h perfusion, which was similar to that in non-operated controls. In contrast, a significant reduction in the RPP after hyperthermia/6-h perfusion was seen in the hearts of rats with CHF. These hearts did not increase Hsp72 and Hsp73 production after hyperthermia. The decline in RPP was associated with failure in the production of myocardial Hsp72 and Hsp73. 4. When rats with CAL were treated with 3 mg kg(-1) day(-1) trandolapril from the 2nd to 8th week after the operation, the decline in RPP of the failing heart after hyperthermia was similar to that of the sham-operated rats. The induction of myocardial Hsp72 and Hsp73 production of the coronary artery-ligated rats after hyperthermia was reversed by treatment with trandolapril. 5. These findings suggest that the preserved ability to induce Hsp72 and Hsp73 production in the heart with CAL by trandolapril treatment may be attributed to the increased tolerance against heat stress-induced deterioration of myocardial contractile function.

Abstract
In the eukaryotic cell an intrinsic mechanism is present providing the ability to defend itself against external stressors from various sources. This defense mechanism probably evolved from the presence of a group of chaperones, playing a crucial role in governing proper protein assembly, folding, and transport. Upregulation of the synthesis of a number of these proteins upon environmental stress establishes a unique defense system to maintain cellular protein homeostasis and to ensure survival of the cell. In the cardiovascular system this enhanced protein synthesis leads to a transient but powerful increase in tolerance to such endangering situations as ischemia, hypoxia, oxidative injury, and endotoxemia. These so-called heat shock proteins interfere with several physiological processes within several cell organelles and, for proper functioning, are translocated to different compartments following stress-induced synthesis. In this review we describe the physiological role of heat shock proteins and discuss their protective potential against various stress agents in the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
Glial cells release a variety of molecules that support neuronal function. Because heat shock proteins (Hsps) are important in the survival of neurons subjected to metabolic stress, the possibility that glia can release the inducible form of the 70 kDa Hsp (Hsp70) was examined. Additionally, the ability of neuronal cells to show increased stress tolerance by taking up a mixture of constitutive and inducible forms of Hsp70 (Hsc/Hsp70) added to the extracellular fluid was tested. Human T98G glioma cells and differentiated LA-N-5 neuroblastoma cells were used as model glia and neurons to investigate these points. Hsp70 was analyzed using affinity chromatography, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence microscopy. The glioma cells were shown to export Hsp70 into the culture medium whether under normal conditions or subjected to heat shock. The amount of glial Hsp70 released ranged from 5 to 15 pg per 10(6) cells per day, being greater following heat shock. Neuroblastoma cells took up biotinylated Hsc/Hsp70 within 1 h after it was added to the culture medium and it made them more resistant to heat shock (44 degrees C) and to staurosporine-induced apoptosis. This increased stress tolerance was especially important in neuroblastoma cells induced to differentiate with phorbol ester because those 'mature neurons' showed a 10-fold decline in endogenous Hsp70, which was accompanied by increased susceptibility to heat shock and staurosporine-induced apoptosis. These results suggest that extracellular Hsp70 may provide a means by which glia can affect neuronal function, perhaps enhancing neuronal stress tolerance.

Abstract
The DeltaF508 cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a temperature-sensitive trafficking mutant that is detected as an immature 160-kDa form (band B) in gel electrophoresis. The goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that HSP70, a member of the 70-kDa heat shock protein family, promotes DeltaF508 CFTR processing to the mature 180-kDa form (band C). Both pharmacological and genetic techniques were used to induce HSP70. IB3-1 cells were treated with sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (4PBA) to promote maturation of DeltaF508 CFTR to band C. A dose-dependent increase in band C and total cellular HSP70 was observed. Under these conditions, HSP70-CFTR complexes were increased and 70-kDa heat shock cognate protein-CFTR complexes were decreased. Increased DeltaF508 CFTR maturation was also seen after transfection with an HSP70 expression plasmid and exposure to glutamine, an inducer of HSP70. With immunofluorescence techniques, the increased appearance of CFTR band C correlated with CFTR distribution beyond the perinuclear regions. These data suggest that induction of HSP70 promotes DeltaF508 CFTR maturation and trafficking.

Abstract
Intracellular trafficking of the DeltaF508 cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is repaired by sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (4PBA) by an undetermined mechanism. 4PBA downregulates protein and mRNA expression of the heat shock cognate protein HSC70 (the constitutively expressed member of the 70-kDa heat shock protein family) by approximately 40-50% and decreases formation of a HSC70-DeltaF508 CFTR complex that may be important in the intracellular degradation of DeltaF508 CFTR. We examined the potential mechanisms by which 4PBA decreases HSC70 mRNA and protein expression. In IB3-1 cells, 1 mM 4PBA did not alter the activity of the Chinese hamster ovary HSC70 promoter or of a human HSC70 promoter fragment in luciferase reporter assays nor did it alter HSC70 mRNA synthesis in nuclear runoff assays. In contrast, preincubation with 4PBA increased the rate of HSC70 mRNA degradation by approximately 40%. The initial rate of 35S-HSC70 protein synthesis in 4PBA-treated IB3-1 cells was reduced by approximately 40%, consistent with the steady-state mRNA level, whereas its rate of degradation was unaltered by 4PBA. 4PBA also reduced the steady-state accumulation of (35)S-HSC70 by approximately 40%. These data suggest that 4PBA decreases the expression of HSC70 mRNA and protein by inducing cellular adaptations that result in the decreased stability of HSC70 mRNA.

Abstract
To test the hypothesis that heat-shock proteins (HSPs) mediate delayed cardioprotection of prior kappa-opioid receptor (kappa-OR) stimulation, we first correlated cellular injury and viability with the expression of HSP70s in isolated rat ventricular myocytes subjected to prior kappa-OR stimulation with the selective agonist trans-(+/-)-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)cyclohexyl]benzeneacetamide (U-50488H) and delayed lethal simulated ischemia (LSI). Cell injury and viability were indicated by lactate dehydrogenase release and trypan blue exclusion, respectively. The reduced injury and increased viability after pretreatment with U-50488H were concentration dependent and correlated directly with the expression of both stress-inducible (HSP70) and constitutive (HSC70) proteins. The effects mimic those with metabolic inhibition preconditioning (MIP). The cardioprotection against LSI by pretreatment with U-50488H and MIP was abolished and antagonized, respectively, via blockade of the kappa-OR by its selective antagonist, nor-binaltorphimine. We also found that blockade of the production of HSP70 but not HSC70 blocked the inhibitory effect of pretreatment with U-50488H on injury and viability. These observations provide evidence that stress-inducible HSP70 mediates delayed cardioprotection of prior kappa-OR stimulation.

Abstract
The contribution of heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) to the protection of cardiac function was examined in rats with chronic heat failure (CHF) following coronary artery ligation (CAL). The CAL animals revealed functional deterioration without low cardiac output 2 wk after CAL and with low cardiac output 8 wk after CAL, suggesting that CHF had developed by 8 wk after CAL. The hearts isolated from animals 2 and 8 wk after CAL (2-wk CAL heart and 8-wk CAL heart, respectively) were subjected to hyperthermia (at 42 degrees C) for 15 min, followed by 6-h perfusion (hyperthermia/6-h perfusion). The 2-wk CAL heart showed a 19.0 +/- 3.9% decline in the rate- pressure product (RPP) after hyperthermia/6-h perfusion, similar to the nonoperated control (19.8 +/- 2.9% decline). The production of myocardial HSP72 increased in the 2-wk CAL heart in response to hyperthermia (412.7 +/- 29.5% of each prehyperthermia value). The 8-wk CAL heart showed a reduction in the RPP (45.2 +/- 4.3% decline) after hyperthermia/6-h perfusion, associated with blunting of the production of HSP72 (68.9 +/- 22.6% increase, respectively). The results suggest that functional deterioration of the isolated failing heart may be attributed to a reduction in the production of myocardial HSP72.

Abstract
When cardiomyocytes are exposed to stresses, production of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in the cells is enhanced. Such increase in cellular HSP production is considered to bring about tolerance against stress-induced cell damage. The exact role of the cellular HSPs remains unclear. In the present study, HSPs in the viable left ventricular myocardium were determined during the development of heart failure following coronary artery ligation (CAL). The rats after CAL showed symptoms of chronic heart failure (CHF) at the 8th week, but not at the 1st and 2nd weeks. Myocardial HSP27, which may bind to cytoskeletal protein, at the 1st, 2nd, and 8th weeks after CAL was approximately 180, 160, and 125% of the control, respectively. Myocardial HSP60, one of mitochondrial proteins, at the 8th week increased to 140% of the control, whereas those at the 1st and 2nd weeks did not change. Myocardial HSP72, an inducible form of HSP70 family, at the 1st week after CAL increased to 180% of the control, whereas that at the 2nd or 8th week was similar to control. Myocardial heat shock constitutive protein 73 (HSC73), a constitutively expressed form of HSP70 family, and HSP90, which may bind to steroid hormone receptor and actin fiber, of CAL rats did not alter throughout the experiment. These findings show that diverse changes in the production of myocardial HSPs occur during the development of heart failure. Only the increase in myocardial HSP60 production was associated with the development of CHF.

Abstract
A number of clinical conditions are known to result in the induction of heat shock proteins, but detailed studies on stress response have focused mostly on heat shock as a model. We have analyzed the induction and intracellular distribution of heat shock proteins in a reversible adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletion model of renal ischemia. Two Hsp70 homologues, Hsp70 in the cytoplasm and BiP in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen, were found significantly induced during the recovery phase of ATP depletion. Other members of the heat shock protein family, such as Hsp90, constitutive Hsc70, and a related protein Hop60, were not induced. The induction of stress proteins on ATP depletion differed from that after heat shock in the kinds of proteins elaborated, their induction kinetics, and their intracellular distributions. Biochemical fractionation and indirect immunofluorescence experiments indicated that Hsp70 was predominantly cytoplasmic in the recovery phase of ischemia-like stress. Velocity sedimentation on sucrose gradients showed that induced Hsp70 sedimented as small, soluble complexes, ranging in size from 4S20,w to 8S20,w. The results suggest a role for induced Hsp70 that may be different from one of protecting aggregated proteins as under heat shock and emphasize the need for their characterization in other clinical conditions that result in stress response.
