Microvasc Res 2023; 147:104502. [PMID: 36746363 DOI: 10.1016/j.mvr.2023.104502] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2022] [Revised: 01/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
The main pathological manifestation of coronary artery disease is myocardial injury caused by ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Regular exercise reduces the risk of death during myocardial IR injury. The aim of this study was to describe the effects of various types of exercise on myocardial IR injury. Four electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library were comprehensively searched from inception until February 2022, to identify studies relevant to the current review, using the method of combining subject and free words. Finally, 16 articles were included in the meta-analysis. Results showed that exercise training decreases the Myocardial infarct size compared to the control group (SMD = -2.6, 95 % CI [-3.53 to -1.67], P < 0.01); increasing the coronary blood flow (MD = 2.93, 95 % CI [2.41 to 3.44], P < 0.01), left ventricular developed pressure (SMD = 2.28, 95 % CI [0.12 to 4.43], P < 0.05), cardiac output (SMD = 1.22, 95 % CI [0.61 to 1.83], P < 0.01) compared to the control group. According to the descriptive analysis results also showed that exercise training increases the left ventricular ejection fraction, superoxide dismutase, manganese superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, copper-zinc superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and decrease the creatine kinase, creatine kinase-MB, lactate dehydrogenase, Malondialdehyde, cardiac troponins T. Exercise can improve myocardial function after myocardial IR injury; however, further research is needed in combination with specific issues such as exercise mode, intensity, duration, and model issues.

Carbohydrate Metabolism in Diabetic Rat’s Heart – The Effects of Acetylsalicylic Acid and Heat Preconditioning as HSP70 Inducers. MACEDONIAN VETERINARY REVIEW 2022.

Abstract
Abstract
The myocardium of diabetic subjects displays reduced HSP70 protein level and weak myocardial protection. However, the heart possesses an ability to produce heat shock proteins (HSPs) after exposure to sublethal heat stress. Acetylsalicylicacid (ASA) has the property of pharmacological induction of HSPs. We evaluated the common effects of single dose ASA-pretreatment, prior to heat preconditioning (HP), over carbohydrate metabolism-related enzymes and substrates in the heart of diabetic rats. Streptozotocin-diabetes caused significant decrease of HSP70 protein level, stimulation of the gluconeogenic processes and inhibition of glycolytic processes in the heart. HP-diabetic hearts have significantly higher HSP70 protein level, lower glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate content, glycogen phosphorylase and hexokinase activity, and higher glucose levels and PFK activity. ASA-pretreatment of HP-diabetic animals caused additional increase of HSP70, additional decrease of glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate, glycogen phosphorylase and hexokinase, and additional increase of glucose and PFK in the heart. In conclusion, HP is physiological inducer of HSP70 level in heart and tends to reverse carbohydrate - related disturbances in diabetic rats. ASA, given prior to HP, is a potent HSP70 co-inducer and causes additional increase of HSP70 protein level in heart. ASA, given in a combination to HP, have shown more evident protective effects against subsequent intense of stress.

Abstract
Little is known about the difference of myocardial gene transcription in young and adult cats and how transcription is further modified in cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and with left atrial (LA) thrombus formation. We hypothesized that selected factors for coagulation, endothelial activation, inflammation, and remodelling are modified with age and are activated in the hearts of cats with HCM. Left atrial and ventricular (LV) samples from 12 cats with HCM (seven without (HCMwoAT] and five with LA thrombi [HCMwAT]), and six young (YC) and six adult (AC) control cats without cardiac disease were investigated for relative expression of the following genes using quantitative polymerase chain reaction: von Willebrand factor, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with a thrombospondin type 1 motif member 13, platelet activating factor, E- and P-selectin, intercellular and vascular adhesion molecules-1, ß2-integrin, vascular endothelial growth factor, interleukin-6 (IL-6), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), heat shock protein-70, and myocyte-specific enhancer factor 2C. Significant differences in gene activation were found between YC and AC, and YC and cats with HCM. Compared to AC, MCP-1 and IL-6 were significantly higher in cats with HCM. The presence of an LA thrombus was associated with higher IL-6 expression. These results illustrate the relevance of age and/or lifestyle on gene expression in the feline heart. The gene transcription pattern found in AC hearts might predispose cats to their characteristic cardiac remodelling processes and thrombus formation if disease occurs. It further supports the involvement of inflammation, but not coagulation and endothelial activation, in HCM.

Abstract
Recent studies have suggested that the prevention of myocardial infarction (MI) through diet is very important and that the intake of polyphenol-rich foods can improve cardiovascular health. In this study, adult male SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups. The chlorogenic acid (CGA) group (n = 18) was administered 100 mg/kg/day CGA by gavage, and the control (CON) group (n = 18) was given the equivalent volume of water for 4 weeks. A model of MI was established by ligating the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery, which was monitored by an electrocardiogram (ECG). Blood samples were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and biochemical experiments 24 h after the operation. In addition, histopathological analysis was performed to assess the size and severity of the infarct area. The administration of CGA before MI minimized weight gain and was associated with decreased postoperative mortality. CGA moderated the coronary artery ligation-induced changes observed by ECG and decreased the plasma levels of the myocardial markers. In the histopathological analysis, CGA notably reduced infarct size and decreased myocardial injury and fibrosis. Furthermore, CGA significantly reduced the levels of pro-inflammatory factors, and this reduction was accompanied by an upregulation of anti-inflammatory cytokines and an increase in antioxidant enzyme activities. This study indicated that CGA improved the survival rate after MI and demonstrated that CGA had a protective effect on MI by reducing the inflammatory response and exerting antioxidant activity.

Exercise heat acclimation causes post-exercise hypotension and favorable improvements in lipid and immune profiles: A crossover randomized controlled trial. J Therm Biol 2019; 84:266-273. [PMID: 31466764 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtherbio.2019.07.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2019] [Revised: 06/17/2019] [Accepted: 07/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Passive hyperthermic exposure causes an acute hypotensive response following the cessation of heat stress. Chronic heat stress is well documented in animal studies to instigate metabolic and lipid alterations. However, it is unknown if exercise-heat acclimation also causes favorable chronic blood pressure, lipid, and immune responses in humans. PURPOSE This project tested the hypothesis that 10-day exercise-heat acclimation (HA) would cause greater post-exercise reductions in arterial blood pressure and favorable metabolic, lipid, and immune responses compared to 10-day exercise under neutral conditions (CON). METHODS Thirteen healthy sedentary participants (8M/5F, 28 ± 6y, 78 ± 17 kg), completed a 10-day (90 min/day exercise bout) clamped hyperthermia HA (increase internal temperature 1.5 °C, in 42 °C, 28% Rh) and control (CON: 23 °C, 42% Rh) protocols in a counterbalanced design with a 2 month washout. Pre- and post-exercise HA/CON blood pressures were taken 1-h post-exercise on exercise days 1 and 10. Metabolic, lipid and immune panels were taken pre-post HA/CON. RESULTS Exercise under heat stress had greater post-exercise hypotension (systolic; -6 mmHg, diastolic; -8 mmHg; and mean arterial pressure; -7 mmHg) on both days 1 and 10 compared to exercise under neutral conditions (main effect for condition, P ≤ 0.004). Only from pre-to-post HA, total cholesterol (168 ± 19 to 157 ± 15; P < 0.03) and triglycerides (137 ± 45 to 111 ± 30; P < 0.03) were reduced, while absolute lymphocytes (-26%), monocytes (-22%), and basophils (-49%) significantly decreased (each P ≤ 0.04). Relative values of neutrophils increased (18%) and lymphocytes decreased (-20%) only after HA (P ≤ 0.04). CONCLUSION These data indicate that exercise in the heat (regardless of acclimation status) causes a profound post-exercise hypotensive response, while HA causes favorable lipid, and immune profile changes. Further examination of exercise-heat acclimation on vascular, metabolic, and immune responses will offer insight for benefits in other clinical populations with vascular, metabolic and immune dysfunction.

Abstract
Objetive Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)
improved symptoms and increased survival and quality of life in patients
with coronary artery disease. However, it should be the main cause of a
complex organic systemic inflammatory response that greatly contributes to
several postoperative adverse effects. Methods We aimed to evaluate heat-shock protein 70 (HSP 70) expression as a
morbimortality predictor in patients with preserved ventricular function
undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary
bypass (CPB) and to determine their association with the lactate as a marker
of tissue hypoperfusion and the EuroSCORE risk score. This is a prospective,
observational study including 46 patients and occurring between May and July
2016. Patients without ventricular dysfunction undergoing myocardial
revascularization with extracorporeal circulation were included. They were
divided into (1) complicated and (2) uncomplicated postoperative evolution
groups. EuroSCORE, lactate levels, and HSP 70 expression and their
correlations were determined. Results Statistical analysis showed that the group with complicated evolution had
higher EuroSCORE values than the other group. HSP 70 protein levels were
significantly increased in the group with uncomplicated evolution and showed
similar results. According to our results, HSP family proteins may be
independent predictors of uncomplicated evolution in patients without
ventricular dysfunction undergoing CABG with CPB. Conclusion HSP 70 should be a good discriminator and protection marker for complications
in cardiac surgery.

Can J Diabetes 2019; 43:345-353.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Heat preconditioning and heat-shock protein (HSP) synthesis have significant cytoprotective effects against the development of cellular injury caused by the application of a subsequent stressor, which were found to depend on the time period between the stressors. We aimed to determine the most efficient recovery time (6 h or 24 h) following heat-stress exposure and prior application of diabetic streptozotocin (STZ) on the moderation of carbohydrate and oxidative metabolic disturbances caused by diabetes. METHODS Experiment animals (Wistar rats) were exposed to acute heat stress at 41±1°C for 45 min, followed by 6-h or 24-h recovery times at room temperature before sacrifice or STZ administration. RESULTS Our findings indicate that acute heat stress with 6-h or 24-h recovery periods results in a significant rise in the hepatic heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) levels (even more so after 24 h), glycogen breakdown and stable glycemia, followed by reduced glycolytic and gluconeogenic activity (after 24 h) (glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase); stimulates antioxidative activity (glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase) (after 6 h); and decreases glutathione and catalase activity (after 24 h). Heat preconditioning (with 6-h and 24-h recovery periods) prior to STZ-induced diabetes increases HSP70 levels and causes lower serum glucose levels, higher glycogen and glucose-6-phosphate levels, lower glucose-6-phosphatase levels and glycogen phosphorylase and hexokinase levels but also elevates glutathione reductase and glutathione peroxidase activity compared to untreated STZ animals. CONCLUSIONS Based on our findings, heat preconditioning and HSP70 induction in rats with type 1 diabetes attenuates STZ-induced metabolic alterations in hepatic carbohydrate metabolism and oxidative states. These changes are more evident at 24 h recovery post-acute heat stress, based on the most evident accumulation of HSP70 in this time frame.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperthermic preconditioning has been shown to protect against different insults in experimental studies. However, clinical studies assessing its effects remain limited. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of hyperthermic preconditioning on the rate of surgical site infection and inflammatory reaction in patients undergoing elective colorectal cancer surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients with colorectal cancer, scheduled to undergo elective surgery were enrolled in this prospective randomized study. Patients were randomly assigned to either the hyperthermic preconditioning group or control group. Postoperative superficial and deep surgical site infection were recorded. Blood samples were collected from all the patients in the hyperthermic preconditioning group prior to the application of hyperthermia 12 h before surgery, immediately prior to surgery, and 4 h and 24 h postoperatively. For the control group, blood samples were obtained within the same periods without the application of hyperthermia. Levels of interleukin-1, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α were measured from blood samples. RESULTS Twenty patients were randomized to the hyperthermic preconditioning group and 21 to the control group. No significant difference was found in deep or superficial surgical site infection between the groups. No significant difference in the tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1, and IL-6 levels was found in serum samples collected before hyperthermia, during the operation, and postoperatively. CONCLUSION This study showed that hyperthermic preconditioning has no effect on the surgical site infection and cytokine response in patients undergoing elective surgical intervention for colorectal cancer.

Abstract
The ongoing contractile and metabolic demands of the heart require a tight control over protein quality control, including the maintenance of protein folding, turnover and synthesis. In heart disease, increases in mechanical and oxidative stresses, post-translational modifications (e.g., phosphorylation), for example, decrease protein stability to favour misfolding in myocardial infarction, heart failure or ageing. These misfolded proteins are toxic to cardiomyocytes, directly contributing to the common accumulation found in human heart failure. One of the critical class of proteins involved in protecting the heart against these threats are molecular chaperones, including the heat shock protein70 (HSP70), HSP90 and co-chaperones CHIP (carboxy terminus of Hsp70-interacting protein, encoded by the Stub1 gene) and BAG-3 (BCL2-associated athanogene 3). Here, we review their emerging roles in the maintenance of cardiomyocytes in human and experimental models of heart failure, including their roles in facilitating the removal of misfolded and degraded proteins, inhibiting apoptosis and maintaining the structural integrity of the sarcomere and regulation of nuclear receptors. Furthermore, we discuss emerging evidence of increased expression of extracellular HSP70, HSP90 and BAG-3 in heart failure, with complementary independent roles from intracellular functions with important therapeutic and diagnostic considerations. While our understanding of these major HSPs in heart failure is incomplete, there is a clear potential role for therapeutic modulation of HSPs in heart failure with important contextual considerations to counteract the imbalance of protein damage and endogenous protein quality control systems.This article is part of the theme issue 'Heat shock proteins as modulators and therapeutic targets of chronic disease: an integrated perspective'.

Effects of Recovery Time during Magnetic Nanofluid Hyperthermia on the Induction Behavior and Efficiency of Heat Shock Proteins 72. Sci Rep 2017; 7:13942. [PMID: 29066807 PMCID: PMC5655350 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-14348-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2017] [Accepted: 10/10/2017] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effects of recovery time during magnetic nanofluid hyperthermia (MNFH) on the cell death rate and the heat shock proteins 72 (HSP72) induction behavior in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs-5) to provide a possible solution for highly efficient ocular neuroprotection. The recovery time and the heat duration time during MNFH were systematically controlled by changing the duty cycle of alternating current (AC) magnetic field during MNFH. It was clearly observed that the cell death rate and the HSP72 induction rate had a strong dependence on the recovery time and the optimizated recovery time resulted in maximizing the induction efficiency of HSP72. Controlling the recovery time during MNFH affects not only the cell death rate but also HSP72 induction rate. The cell death rate after MNFH was dramatically decreased by increasing the recovery time during MNFH. However, it was also found that the HSP72 induction rate was slightly decreased by increasing the recovery time. These results indicate that applying the appropriate or optimized recovery time during MNFH can improve the induction efficiency of HSP72 by minimizing the cell death caused by cytotoxic effects of heat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although early reperfusion is the most desirable intervention after ischemic myocardial insult, it may add to damage through oxidative stress. OBJECTIVES This study investigated the cardioprotective effects of a single intravenous dose of heat shock protein-72 (HSP72) coupled to a single-chain variable fragment (Fv) of monoclonal antibody 3E10 (3E10Fv) in a rabbit ischemia-reperfusion model. The Fv facilitates rapid transport of HSP72 into cells, even with intact membranes. METHODS A left coronary artery occlusion (40 min) reperfusion (3 h) model was used in 31 rabbits. Of these, 12 rabbits received the fusion protein (Fv-HSP72) intravenously. The remaining 19 control rabbits received a molar equivalent of 3E10Fv alone (n = 6), HSP72 alone (n = 6), or phosphate-buffered saline (n = 7). Serial echocardiographic examinations were performed to assess left ventricular function before and after reperfusion. Micro-single-photon emission computed tomography imaging of 99mTc-labeled annexin-V was performed with micro-computed tomography scanning to characterize apoptotic damage in vivo, followed by gamma counting of the excised myocardial specimens to quantify cell death. Histopathological characterization of the myocardial tissue and sequential cardiac troponin I measurements were also undertaken. RESULTS Myocardial annexin-V uptake was 43% lower in the area at risk (p = 0.0003) in Fv-HSP72-treated rabbits compared with control animals receiving HSP72 or 3E10Fv alone. During reperfusion, troponin I release was 42% lower and the echocardiographic left ventricular ejection fraction 27% higher in the Fv-HSP72-treated group compared with control animals. Histopathological analyses confirmed penetration of 3E10Fv-containing molecules into cardiomyocytes in vivo, and treatment with Fv-HSP72 showed fewer apoptotic nuclei compared with control rabbits. CONCLUSIONS Single-dose administration of Fv-HSP72 fusion protein at the time of reperfusion reduced myocardial apoptosis by almost one-half and improved left ventricular functional recovery after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbits. It might have potential to serve as an adjunct to early reperfusion in the management of myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is a primary cause of poor outcomes following ischemic cardiovascular events. We tested whether acute hot water immersion protects against forearm vascular I/R. Ten (5 male, 5 female) young (23 ± 2 yr), healthy subjects participated in two trials in random order 7-21 days apart, involving: 1) 60 min of seated rest (control), or 2) 60 min of immersion in 40.5°C water (peak rectal temperature: 38.9 ± 0.2°C). I/R was achieved 70 min following each intervention by inflating an upper arm cuff to 250 mmHg for 20 min followed by 20 min of reperfusion. Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and forearm postocclusive reactive hyperemia (RH) were measured as markers of macrovascular and microvascular function at three time points: 1) preintervention, 2) 60 min postintervention, and 3) post-I/R. Neither time control nor hot water immersion alone affected FMD (both, P > 0.99). I/R reduced FMD from 7.4 ± 0.7 to 5.4 ± 0.6% (P = 0.03), and this reduction was prevented following hot water immersion (7.0 ± 0.7 to 7.7 ± 1.0%; P > 0.99). I/R also impaired RH (peak vascular conductance: 2.6 ± 0.5 to 2.0 ± 0.4 ml·min-1·mmHg-1, P = 0.003), resulting in a reduced shear stimulus (SRAUC·10-3: 22.5 ± 2.4 to 16.9 ± 2.4, P = 0.04). The post-I/R reduction in peak RH was prevented by hot water immersion (2.5 ± 0.4 to 2.3 ± 0.4 ml·min-1·mmHg-1; P = 0.33). We observed a decline in brachial artery dilator function post-I/R, which may be (partly) related to damage incurred downstream in the microvasculature, as indicated by impaired RH and shear stimulus. Hot water immersion was protective against reductions in FMD and RH post-I/R, suggesting heat stress induces vascular changes consistent with reducing I/R injury following ischemic events.

Obese type 2 diabetics have a blunted hypotensive response to acute hyperthermia therapy that does not affect the perception of thermal stress or physiological strain compared to healthy adults. Physiol Behav 2016; 165:374-82. [PMID: 27570191 DOI: 10.1016/j.physbeh.2016.08.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2016] [Revised: 08/21/2016] [Accepted: 08/24/2016] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that a hyperthermia-hypotensive challenge via whole body hot water immersion would alter the perception of hyperthermia and physiological strain in obese type 2 diabetics (T2DM) compared to healthy non-obese (HC) individuals. Additionally, we hypothesize that the mechanisms would be attributed to impaired blood pressure adjustments and afferent signals (via changes in internal and mean skin temperatures). METHODS In random order, eleven obese T2DM (50±12y, 45±7% fat mass, 7.5±1.8% HbA1c) and nine similar aged (41±14y, P>0.05) HC non-obese (33±8% fat mass, P<0.01) non-diabetic (5.3±0.4% HbA1c, P<0.01) underwent a 60min bout of whole body passive hyperthermia followed by 60min of recovery or a 2h resting control condition. The perception of thermal sensation (TS, scale range: 1-13), calculated physiological strain (PSI), internal (Tre, rectal) and mean skin (Tsk) temperatures, heart rate (HR) and blood pressures (BP) were the primary dependent variables. RESULTS Hyperthermia similarly increased Tre by 1.4±0.4°C, Tsk by 6.5±0.8°C and HR by 34±8bpm in both groups (P>0.5). Hyperthermia reduced diastolic BP (27% in T2DM and 33% in HC, P<0.05) and mean arterial BP (reduced by 15% in T2DM and by 19% in HC) relative to control conditions (P<0.05). The reduction of mean arterial BP area under the curve was attenuated in T2DM (12%) compared to HC (30%) (group×condition, P<0.01). TS and PSI during hyperthermia were not different between groups. Pearson product correlation reported strong correlations (r=0.69-0.89) with Tre and Tsk with TS in both populations. The linear stepwise regression analysis revealed similar relative contributions for Tre (~60%) and Tsk (~40%) on TS for both groups. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate that obese T2DM with moderate metabolic control have an attenuated hyperthermia-hypotensive response that does not affect TS and PSI. This also may suggest behavioral thermoregulation is intact in this study group.

Argon Induces Protective Effects in Cardiomyocytes during the Second Window of Preconditioning. Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17071159.

Abstract
Increasing evidence indicates that argon has organoprotective properties. So far, the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated the effect of argon preconditioning in cardiomyocytes within the first and second window of preconditioning. Primary isolated cardiomyocytes from neonatal rats were subjected to 50% argon for 1 h, and subsequently exposed to a sublethal dosage of hypoxia (<1% O2) for 5 h either within the first (0–3 h) or second window (24–48 h) of preconditioning. Subsequently, the cell viability and proliferation was measured. The argon-induced effects were assessed by evaluation of mRNA and protein expression after preconditioning. Argon preconditioning did not show any cardioprotective effects in the early window of preconditioning, whereas it leads to a significant increase of cell viability 24 h after preconditioning compared to untreated cells (p = 0.015) independent of proliferation. Argon-preconditioning significantly increased the mRNA expression of heat shock protein (HSP) B1 (HSP27) (p = 0.048), superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) (p = 0.001), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (p < 0.001) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) (p = 0.001). No difference was found with respect to activation of pro-survival kinases in the early and late window of preconditioning. The findings provide the first evidence of argon-induced effects on the survival of cardiomyocytes during the second window of preconditioning, which may be mediated through the induction of HSP27, SOD2, VEGF and iNOS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We attempted to test the hypothesis that preinduction of heat shock protein (HSP) 72 in the heart would improve left ventricular performance in rat heatstroke. METHODS Cardiac expression of HSP 72 was quantitatively evaluated by western blot analysis in rats 0h, 12h, or 72h after mild heat preconditioning (MHP; 43°C for 30min). They were subjected to severe heat stress (SHS; 43°C for 70min) to induce heatstroke. A 1.2F catheter-tip pressure transducer was inserted into the left ventricle of these group rats under general anesthesia to record hemodynamic in the closed chest with a pressure-volume loop module data recording and analysis system. RESULTS At the time point of heatstroke onset, compared with normothermic controls, group rats with 12h post-MHP had significantly increased cardiac HSP 72, decreased hyperthermia, decreased hypotension, decreased bradycardia, increased end-systolic pressure, increased end-diastolic pressure, increased stroke volume, decreased end-systolic volume, decreased end-diastolic pressure, increased cardiac output, increased ejection fraction, increased stroke work, increased arterial elastance, and decreased time constant of fall in ventricular pressure by Glantz-methods. With the loss of cardiac HSP 72 expression observed at 72h in post-MHP group rats, an insignificant protection against left ventricular performance was observed. CONCLUSION Preinduction of cardiac HSP 72 may improve hypotension in heatstroke rats by increasing both cardiac mechanical efficiency and arterial elastance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diagnostic ultrasound imaging is enhanced by the use of circulating microbubble contrast agents (UCAs), but the interactions between ultrasound, UCAs, and vascular tissue are not fully understood. We hypothesized that ultrasound with a UCA would stress the vascular tissue and increase levels of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), a cellular stress protein. METHODS Male New Zealand White rabbits (n = 32) were fed a standard chow diet (n = 4) or a 1% cholesterol, 10% fat, and 0.11% magnesium diet (n = 28). At 21 days, 24 rabbits on the cholesterol diet were either exposed to ultrasound (3.2-MHz f/3 transducer; 2.1 MPa; mechanical index, 1.17; 10 Hz pulse repetition frequency; 1.6 microseconds pulse duration; 2 minutes exposure duration at 4 sites along the aorta) with the UCA Definity (1× concentration, 1 mL/min; Lantheus Medical Imaging, North Billerica, MA) or sham exposed with a saline vehicle injection (n = 12 per group). Four rabbits on the cholesterol diet and 4 on the chow diet served as cage controls and were not exposed to ultrasound or restrained for blood sample collection. Animals were euthanized 24 hours after exposure, and aortas were quickly isolated and frozen in liquid nitrogen. Aorta lysates from the area of ultrasound exposure were analyzed for Hsp70 level by Western blot. Blood plasma was analyzed for cholesterol, Hsp70, and von Willebrand factor, a marker of endothelial function. RESULTS Plasma total cholesterol levels increased to an average of 705 mg/dL. Ultrasound did not affect plasma von Willebrand factor, plasma Hsp70, or aorta Hsp70. Restraint increased Hsp70 (P < .001, analysis of variance). CONCLUSIONS Restraint, but not ultrasound with the UCA or cholesterol feeding, significantly increased Hsp70.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 70.3 (Hsp70.3) expression increases in response to cellular stress and plays a cytoprotective role. We have previously shown that Hsp70.3 expression is controlled through coordinated post-transcriptional regulation by miRNAs and alternative polyadenylation (APA), and APA-mediated shortening of the Hsp70.3 3'-UTR facilitates increased protein expression. A stress-induced increase in Hsp70.3 mRNA and protein expression is accompanied by alternative polyadenylation (APA)-mediated truncation of the 3'UTR of the Hsp70.3 mRNA transcript. However, the role that APA plays in stress-induced expression of Hsp70.3 remains unclear. Our results show that APA-mediated truncation of the Hsp70.3 3'UTR increases protein expression through enhanced polyribosome loading. Additionally, we demonstrate that the RNA binding protein HuR, which has been previously shown to play a role in mediating APA, is necessary for heat shock mediated increase in Hsp70.3 mRNA and protein. However, it is somewhat surprising to note that HuR does not play a role in APA of the Hsp70.3 mRNA, and these two regulatory events appear to be mutually exclusive regulators of Hsp70.3 expression. These results not only provide important insight to the regulation of stress response genes following heat shock, but also contribute an enhanced understanding of how alternative polyadenylation contributes to gene regulation.

Abstract
Several isoforms of apolipoprotein J/clusterin (CLU) are encoded from a single gene located on chromosome 8 in humans. These isoforms are ubiquitously expressed in the tissues, and have been implicated in aging, neurodegenerative disorders, cancer progression, and metabolic/cardiovascular diseases including dyslipidemia, diabetes, atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction. The conventional secreted form of CLU (sCLU) is thought to be a component of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol. sCLU functions as a chaperone for misfolded proteins and it is thought to promote survival by reducing oxidative stress. Nuclear CLU, a truncated CLU formed by alternative splicing, is responsible for promoting apoptosis via a Bax-dependent pathway. There are putative regulatory sites in the promoter regions of CLU, which are occupied by transcription factors such as transforming growth factor (TGF)-β inhibitory element, activator protein-1, CLU-specific elements, and carbohydrate response element. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the distinct roles of CLU in a variety of conditions remain unclear. Although the function of CLU in cancer or neurological disease has been studied intensively for three decades, physiological roles of CLU seem unexplored in the cardiovascular system and metabolic diseases. In this review, we will discuss general characteristics and regulations of CLU based on previous literature and assess the recent findings associated with its physiological roles in different tissues including the vasculature, heart, liver, kidney, adipose tissue, and brain.

Abstract
We previously reported that heat stroke induces autophagy as a protection mechanism against neurodegeneration in the brain. Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is a stress protein and can be induced by heat stress (HS). Cerebellar Purkinje cells are selectively vulnerable to heat-induced injury. In this study, we first validated an animal model of HS (38°C for 4 h) in which sustained increase of Purkinje cell injury, HO-1 expression up to 24 h post HS (HS₂₄), and hyperthermia reaching a rectal temperature 41.52 ± 0.32 were observed. In subsequent experiments, we investigated the effects of HO-1 on HS-induced Purkinje cell injury. Rats were divided into four groups: one normothermic control group receiving saline vehicle (1 mL/kg, intraperitoneal [i.p.]) and exposed to 25 for 4 h; and three HS groups receiving saline, or HO-1 inducer haemin (30 mg/kg, i.p.) or HO-1 inhibitor tin protoporphyrin (SnPP, 30 mg/kg, i.p.), respectively, at 12 h prior to HS. HS-induced Purkinje cell injury was further enhanced by HO-1 inducer but attenuated by HO-1 inhibitor as evaluated by immunoreactivity of apoptosis marker (active caspase-3) as well as Fluoro-Jade B histochemistry (staining for degenerating neurons), suggesting a detrimental role of HO-1. Interestingly, the protective autophagy was reduced by HO-1 inducer but enhanced by HO-1 inhibitor as demonstrated by autophagy markers including Beclin-1 and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 in Purkinje cells. Double immunofluorescent labelling of Beclin-1 or 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (an oxidative DNA damage marker) with HO-1 immunoreactivity not only demonstrated their co-localization, but also confirmed that HO-1 negatively regulated Beclin-1 but increased oxidative stress in the same Purkinje cell. Taken together, our results indicate that HO-1 aggravates HS injury in cerebellar Purkinje cells. Our findings shed new light on cell damage mechanisms by HS in central nervous system and may help to provide potential therapeutic foci.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Operation on the infrarenal aorta could cause ischemic-reperfusion (IR) injury in local tissues and remote organs (e.g. the lung). OBJECTIVES Our aim was to reduce long-term lung damage, after lower limb IR with postconditioning. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Wistar rats underwent 180 minutes of bilateral lower limb ischemia. Animals were divided into three groups: Sham-operated, IR, Postconditioned (PostC) and further to two subgroups according to reperfusion time: 24 h and 72 h. Serum free radical and IL-6 levels, histological changes, Wet/Dry (W/D) ratio, tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and Hsp72 levels were investigated. RESULTS Postconditioning can reduce histological changes in the lung. Free radical levels are significantly lower in PostC groups than in IR groups (42.9 ± 8.0 vs. 6.4 ± 3.4; 27.3 ± 4.4 vs. 8.3 ± 4.0 RLU%; p < 0.05). IL-6 level (238.4 ± 31.1 vs. 209.1 ± 18.8; 190.0 ± 8.8 vs. 187.0 ± 14.9 pg/ml) and Hsp72 expression did not show any significant difference. Compared to the IR group, lung MPO activity did not change in the PostC groups. W/D ratio in PostC groups is significantly lower at all measured time-points (68% vs. 65%; 72% vs. 68%; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Postconditioning may reduce long-term damages of the lung after lower limb ischemic-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
PURPOSE Late lesion extension may be involved in the genesis of delayed radiofrequency (RF) effects. Because RF lesion is thermally mediated, we hypothesized that induction of heat shock response (thermotolerance) would modulate lesion healing. We evaluated the effects of thermotolerance on the dimensions and remodeling of RF lesions in a rat model of heart failure. METHODS Wistar rats (weight 300 g) subjected to heat stress (n = 22, internal temperature of 42 °C for 10 min) were compared to controls (n = 22, internal temperature of 37 °C for 10 min). After 48 h (peak of HSP70 myocardial concentration), a modified unipolar RF lesion (customized catheter, tip 4.5 mm in diameter; 12 W; 10 s) was created on the left ventricular free wall. Animals were sacrificed 2 h (n = 10 per group) and 4 weeks (n = 12 per group) after ablation for lesion analysis. An echocardiogram was obtained at 4 weeks. RESULTS There was no difference between groups regarding the size of acute (controls 27 ± 2 vs. treated 27 ± 3 mm(2)) and chronic lesions (controls 17 ± 1 vs. treated 19 ± 1 mm(2)). Histology of lesions did not differ between groups. The echocardiogram revealed dilation of the cavities and moderate systolic dysfunction without difference between groups. Acute lesion dimensions were similar between control and treated animals over time (ablation undertaken 3, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h after hyperthermia) and also using a conventional ablation catheter (50 °C; 15 W; 10 s). CONCLUSION Thermotolerance does not reduce the size or remodeling of RF lesions in the rat myocardium.

Abstract
In recent years, sulfated polysaccharide (fucoidan) is being marketed as a nutraceutical and food supplement because of its various established pharmacological activities. Hence this study was designed to investigate the protective effect of fucoidan extracted from Turbinaria conoides against isoproterenol induced myocardial injured rats. Biochemical assessment of myocardial injury was done by measuring the activities of creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase, membrane bound triphosphatases and minerals, which were significantly altered in isoproterenol administered rats. In addition, the enzyme mapping assay on the size of myocardial infarct also correlated with these biochemical parameters. Thus, the observed protective effects of sulfated polysaccharides of T. conoides against ISO induced myocardial injury are due to membrane stabilizing property and this property might be due to decreased lipid peroxidation. These results may trigger a renewed interest in the use of T. conoides fucoidan for myocardial injury.

Abstract
The cardiovasculature is one of the major body systems and probably the one most exposed to stress. There is clear evidence that increasing levels of cell stress proteins within the heart is cardioprotective. In addition, there is rapidly emerging evidence that secreted cell stress proteins play a role in the function of the cardiovascular tissues. Those secreted proteins have three potential functions: (1) as normal homeostatic cardiovascular signals (e.g. protein disulphide isomerase); (2) as anti-inflammatory molecules, which are able to inhibit cardiovascular pathology (e.g. Hsp27); and (iii) as pro-inflammatory signals that can induce and promote cardiovascular pathology (e.g. Hsp60). As all of these various proteins may be released-at different rates-and in different cardiovascular diseases-we need to consider the cohort of potential secreted cell stress proteins as a dynamic system (network) that can aid and/or damage the equally dynamic cardiovascular system.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus type 1 (DMT1) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the destruction of insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Diabetic patients are more susceptible to recurrent and uncontrolled infections, with worse prognoses than in healthy individuals. Macrophages (MΦs) derived from DMT1 individuals have compromised mounting of inflammatory and immune responses. The mechanisms responsible for these alterations remain unknown. It has been shown that the presence of extra- and intracellular heat shock proteins (hsp) positively modulates immune cell function. Using naive MΦs derived from non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, a well-established mouse model for DMT1, we demonstrate that heat shock (HS) as well as treatment with geldanamycin (GA), significantly improves diabetic MΦ activation, resulting in increased phagocytosis and killing of bacteria. Induction of HS did not affect the aberrant NOD-MΦ cytokine profile, which is characterized by elevated IL-10 levels and normal tumor necrosis factor alpha. Our observations were consistent at pre-diabetic (normal random blood glucose) and diabetic (random blood glucose greater than 250 mg/dl) stages, suggesting that HS and GA treatment may compensate for intrinsic genetic alterations present in diabetic cells regardless of the stage of the disease. The mechanisms associated to this phenomenon are unknown, but they may likely be associated with the induction of hsp expression, a common factor between HS and GA treatment. Our results may open a new field for non-classical function of hsp and indicate that hsp expression may be used as a part of therapeutic approaches for the treatment of complications associated with DMT1 as well as other autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) is well documented to possess general cytoprotective properties in protecting the cell against stressful and noxious stimuli. We have recently shown that expression of the stress-inducible Hsp70.3 gene in the myocardium in response to ischemic preconditioning is NF-κB-dependent and necessary for the resulting late phase cardioprotection against a subsequent ischemia/reperfusion injury. Here we show that the Hsp70.3 gene product is subject to post-transcriptional regulation through parallel regulatory processes involving microRNAs and alternative polyadenylation of the mRNA transcript. First, we show that cardiac ischemic preconditioning of the in vivo mouse heart results in decreased levels of two Hsp70.3-targeting microRNAs: miR-378* and miR-711. Furthermore, an ischemic or heat shock stimulus induces alternative polyadenylation of the expressed Hsp70.3 transcript that results in the accumulation of transcripts with a shortened 3'-UTR. This shortening of the 3'-UTR results in the loss of the binding site for the suppressive miR-378* and thus renders the alternatively polyadenylated transcript insusceptible to miR-378*-mediated suppression. Results also suggest that the alternative polyadenylation-mediated shortening of the Hsp70.3 3'-UTR relieves translational suppression observed in the long 3'-UTR variant, allowing for a more robust increase in protein expression. These results demonstrate alternative polyadenylation of Hsp70.3 in parallel with ischemic or heat shock-induced up-regulation of mRNA levels and implicate the importance of this process in post-transcriptional control of Hsp70.3 expression.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as a novel class of endogenous, small, noncoding RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression via degradation or translational inhibition of their target mRNAs. Over 700 miRNAs have been identified and sequenced in humans, and the number of miRNA genes is estimated at more than 1000. Individual miRNA is functionally important as a transcription factor because it has the ability to regulate the expression of multiple genes through binding to its target with imperfect or perfect complement. In the heart, miRNAs have been involved in several clinical scenarios, such as ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and heart failure suggesting that regulation of their function could be used as a novel cardioprotective strategy. In particular, miRNA-1, miRNA-21, miRNA-24, miRNA-29, miRNA-92a, miRNA-126, miRNA-133, miRNA-320, miRNA-199a, miRNA-208, and miRNA-195 have been shown to be regulated after I/R injury. Because tissue miRNAs can be released into circulating blood, they also offer exciting new opportunities for developing sensitive biomarkers, including miRNA-1, miRNA-126, miR-208, and miRNA-499, for acute myocardial infarction and other cardiac diseases.

Abstract
This prospective randomized study investigated the effects of two different cardioplegia techniques on myocardial heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) mRNA levels. Patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were divided into two equal groups. All patients received the same anaesthesia. Myocardial preservation was achieved by delivering intermittent antegrade isothermic blood cardioplegia in one group and antegrade plus continuous retrograde isothermic blood cardioplegia in the other. Biopsies for measurement of HSP70 mRNA levels were taken from the right atria before surgical manipulation of the heart, and later from the same place following CPB. HSP70 mRNA levels were evaluated using quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Crossing-point values for HSP70 and β-actin were used to evaluate up-regulation. There was a significant increase in HSP70 mRNA levels in response to CPB in both groups, but no significant between-group difference in HSP70 up-regulation. Further investigation is required to evaluate the correlation between the level of HSP induction and the degree of myocardial protection in more heterogeneous groups of patients.

Abstract
Preconditioning (PC) of the heart by sublethal ischemia, mild heat shock, or hypoxia has evolved as a powerful experimental tool to discover novel signaling mechanisms in cardioprotection. The ultimate goal is to determine novel therapeutic targets for potential application in humans to protect the heart against ischemia-related injuries. In recent years, there has been a tremendous interest in understanding the role of small noncoding RNAs, microRNAs (miRs), in cardiovascular diseases. miRs have been recognized as regulators of gene expression by destabilization and translational inhibition of target messenger RNAs. Studies have shown that several miRs, including miR-1, miR-133, miR-21, miR-126, miR-320, miR-92a, and miR-199a, are regulated after preconditioning and play an active role in protecting the heart against ischemia/reperfusion injury. These miRs also drive the synthesis of important cardioprotective proteins including heat shock protein (HSP)-70, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, inducible nitric oxide synthase, HSP-20, Sirt1, and hypoxia-inducible factor 1a. We believe that identification and targeted delivery of miR(s) in the heart could have an immense therapeutic potential in reducing myocardial infarction in patients suffering from heart disease.

Abstract
Low-intensity light therapy (LILT) is showing promise in the treatment of a wide variety of medical conditions. Concurrently, our knowledge of LILT mechanisms continues to expand. We are now aware of LILT's potential to induce cellular effects through, for example, accelerated ATP production and the mitigation of oxidative stress. In clinical use, however, it is often difficult to predict patient response to LILT. It appears that cellular reduction/oxidation (redox) state may play a central role in determining sensitivity to LILT and may help explain variability in patient responsiveness. In LILT, conditions associated with elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, e.g. diabetic hyperglycemia, demonstrate increased sensitivity to LILT. Consequently, assessment of tissue redox conditions in vivo may prove helpful in identifying responsive tissues. A noninvasive redox measure may be useful in advancing investigation in LILT and may one day be helpful in better identifying responsive patients. The detection of biophotons, the production of which is associated with cellular redox state and the generation of ROS, represents just such an opportunity. In this review, we will present the case for pursuing further investigation into the potential clinical partnership between biophoton detection and LILT.

Abstract
Abstract
Objectives
This study was designed to compare vascular contractile and relaxing responses to G-protein coupled receptor agonists among the different regions of arteries following heat stress in rats.
Methods
Heat exposure was performed by increasing the internal temperature of the rats to 42°C for 15 min. After heat stress for 48 h, a myograph system was used to monitor the contractile responses in rat renal, femoral and mesenteric arteries to agonists of endothelin type B (ETB) receptor, endothelin type A (ETA) receptor, serotonin receptor and α-adrenoceptor, respectively. In addition, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-induced vasodilation was studied.
Key findings
The results showed that heat stress induced decreased contractions mediated by α-adrenoceptors and serotonin receptors (at lower concentration), while it increased contraction mediated by endothelin ETB receptors and enhanced relaxation mediated by CGRP receptors in the renal artery. Heat stress increased contractions mediated by endothelin ETB receptors, endothelin ETA receptors and α-adrenoceptors in the femoral artery. In the mesenteric artery, heat stress increased contractions mediated by endothelin ETB and serotonin receptors and relaxation mediated by CGRP receptors.
Conclusions
The vasomotor responses to the G-protein coupled receptor agonists with altered vascular contractions and relaxations were different in rat renal, femoral and mesenteric arteries after heat stress. This might have contributed to the redistribution of blood flow and aids understanding of the preconditioning phenomenon.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) have been studied for many years and there is now a large body of evidence that demonstrates the role of Hsp upregulation in tissue and cell protection in a wide variety of stress conditions. Oxidative stress is known to be involved in a number of pathological conditions, including neurodegeneration, cardiovascular disease and stroke, and even plays a role in natural aging. In this review we summarize the current understanding of the role of Hsps and the heat shock response (HSR) in these pathological conditions and discuss the therapeutic potential of an Hsp therapy for these disorders. However, although an Hsp based therapy appears to be a promising approach for the treatment of diseases that involve oxidative damage, there are some significant hurdles that must be overcome before this approach can be successful. For example, to be effective an Hsp based therapy will need to ensure that the upregulation of Hsps occurs in the right place (i.e. be cell specific), at the right time and to a level and specificity that ensures that all the important binding partners, namely the co-chaperones, are also present at the appropriate levels. It is therefore unlikely that strategies that involve genetic modifications that result in overexpression of specific Hsps will achieve such sophisticated and coordinated effects. Similarly, it is likely that some pharmaceutical inducers of Hsps may be too generic to achieve the desired specific effects on Hsp expression, or may simply fail to reach their target cells due to delivery problems. However, if these difficulties can be overcome, it is clear that an effective Hsp based therapy would be of great benefit to the wide range of depilating conditions in which oxidative stress plays a critical role.

Abstract
The expression and localization of four heat shock proteins (Hsp70, Hsp86, Hsp90, and Hsp27) were shown in the heart tissue of pigs transported for 6 h. Immunostaining detected the consistent presence of all Hsps in the pig myocardial cells under both transported and normal housing conditions. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed predominance of Hsp70 (significantly highest levels) and Hsp27 in the cytoplasm of myocardial cells. Hsp90 and Hsp86 were expressed both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus, preferentially in the cytoplasm, of the myocardial cells. In view of their abundant and uniform distributions in the myocardial cells, the expression and distribution patterns of all detected Hsps within the myocardial cells, mostly limited to the cytoplasm, could be related to their chaperone function for cells with important special activities in this study. The identification of all four Hsps in the blood vessel endothelial cells possibly implies that endothelial cells react to ischemia and hypoxia by expressing Hsps. Immunoblot findings suggest that the level of all Hsps decreased in response to stress due to a 6 h journey. The decrease in Hsp levels in the myocardial cells may indicate that the transport stress may have overcharged the repair mechanisms of the cells. Whether this distinct depletion of Hsps contributes to an increased susceptibility to acute heart failure and the sudden death syndrome in transported pigs should be elucidated in future experiments.

Abstract
We investigated the role of microRNAs (miRNA) in protection against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in heart. Mice subjected to cytoprotective heat-shock (HS) showed a significant increase of miRNA-1, miRNA-21 and miRNA-24 in the heart. miRNAs isolated from HS mice and injected into non-HS mice significantly reduced infarct size after I/R injury, which was associated with the inhibition of pro-apoptotic genes and increase in anti-apoptotic genes. Chemically synthesized miRNA-21 also reduced infarct size, whereas a miRNA-21 inhibitor abolished this effect. Overall, these studies for the first time provide evidence for the potential role of endogenously synthesized miRNA's in cardioprotection following I/R injury.

Abstract
The overexpression of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) provides cytoprotection to cells, making them resistant to otherwise lethal levels of stress. In this review, the role Hsp70 plays in protecting both cardiac and skeletal muscle against the pathophysiological effects of oxidative stress are examined, with a focus on the molecular basis for the cytoprotective effects of Hsp70. The ability of Hsp70 to maintain cell survival undoubtedly involves the regulation of multiple steps within apoptotic pathways, but could also involve the regulation of key upstream mediators of apoptosis (i.e., oxidative stress, Ca2+overload). Hsp70 can stabilize the structure and function of both the skeletal muscle and cardiac Ca2+pump under heat stress conditions. Given that Ca2+overload has long been implicated in cell death, Hsp70 might protect muscle cells by maintaining cellular Ca2+homeostasis, thereby preventing the initiation of apoptosis. The functional interaction between Hsp70 and Ca2+pumps might also promote improvements in muscle contractility after exposure to oxidative stress.

Abstract
The small heat shock protein Hsp20 protects cardiomyocytes against apoptosis, and phosphorylation at its Ser16 site enhances its cardioprotection. To determine whether genetic variants exist in human Hsp20, which may modify these beneficial effects, we sequenced the coding region of the Hsp20 gene in 1347 patients suffering from dilated cardiomyopathy and 744 subjects with no heart disease. We identified a C59T substitution in the human Hsp20 gene in one patient and three individuals without heart disease. All subjects were heterozygous for this mutation, which changes a fully conserved proline residue into leucine at position 20 (P20L), resulting in secondary structural alterations. To examine the potential functional significance of the P20L-Hsp20 human variant, adult rat cardiomyocytes were infected with Ad.GFP (where Ad is adenovirus and GFP is green fluorescent protein), Ad.WT-Hsp20 (where WT is wild-type), and Ad.P20L-Hsp20 and subjected to simulated ischemia/reperfusion injury. Expression of WT-Hsp20 resulted in significant attenuation of apoptosis compared with the GFP control. However, the P20L-Hsp20 mutant showed no protection against apoptosis, assessed by Hoechst staining and DNA fragmentation. The loss of cardioprotection by the mutant Hsp20 was associated with its diminished phosphorylation at Ser16 compared with WT-Hsp20. Furthermore, maximal stimulation of cardiomyocytes with isoproterenol or protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation in vitro confirmed the impaired ability of the mutant Hsp20 to become phosphorylated at Ser16. In conclusion, we have identified a P20L substitution in human Hsp20, which is associated with diminished phosphorylation at Ser16 and complete abrogation of the Hsp20 cardioprotective effects which may adversely affect the ability of human carriers to cope with cellular stress.

Abstract
Heat stress has been demonstrated to have strong cardiovascular effects. However, the underlying mechanism-mediated cardiovascular effects are still not fully understood. The present study was designed to examine if heat stress alters vascular G-protein coupled receptor-mediated vasomotion and endothelium function in rat mesenteric artery. Rats were divided into two groups, heat stress rats and control. The G-protein coupled receptors of endothelin type B (ETB) receptor-, endothelin type A (ETA) receptor-, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptor-, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor-, alpha-adrenoceptor-mediated vosoactivity and endothelium-dependent relaxation on rat mesenteric artery ring segments were monitored by a myograph system. The plasma level of CGRP was determined by radioimmunological assay. Compared with control arterial segments, the contractile response curves of sarafotoxin 6c, a selective ETB receptor agonist and 5-HT in the arterial segments from heat stress rats were shifted towards left. An increased maximum contraction (Emax) induced by sarafotoxin 6c, but not 5-HT, was seen in the arterial segments from heat stress rats. CGRP-induced relaxation in endothelium-denuded arterial segments from heat stress rats was enhanced. The relaxation in endothelium-intact arterial segments induced by acetylcholine was significantly decreased in heat stress rats. In addition, the plasma concentration of CGRP was increased in heat stress rats. The endothelium-dependent relaxation was characterized and shown there was a decrease in nitric oxide and endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor-mediated relaxation in the arterial segments from heat stress rats. In conclusion, heat stress induces an enhanced vascular endothelin ETB-, 5-HT-receptors-mediated contraction, an enhanced CGRP-receptor-induced relaxation and damage to endothelium-dependent relaxation.

Abstract
The direct correlation between levels of heat shock protein expression and efficiency of its tissue protection function motivates this study of how thermal doses can be used for an optimal stress protocol design. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) expression kinetics were visualized continuously in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) on a microscope heating stage using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a reporter. BAECs were transfected with a DNA vector, HSP(p)-HSP70-GFP which expresses an HSP70-GFP fusion protein under control of the HSP70 promoter. Expression levels were validated by western blot analysis. Transfected cells were heated on a controlled temperature microscope stage at 42 degrees C for a defined period, then shifted to 37 degrees C for varied post-heating times. The expression of HSP70-GFP and its sub-cellular localization were visualized via fluorescence microscopy. The progressive expression kinetics were measured by quantitative analysis of serial fluorescence images captured during heating protocols from 1 to 2 h and post-heating times from 0 to 20 h. The results show two sequential peaks in HSP70 expression at approximately 3 and 12 h post-heat shock. A progressive translocation of HSP70 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus was observed from 6 to 16 h. We conclude that we have successfully combined molecular cloning and optical imaging to study HSP70 expression kinetics. The kinetic profile for HSP70-GFP fusion protein is consistent with the endogenous HSP70. Furthermore, information on dynamic intracellular translocation of HSP70 was extracted from the same experimental data.
