Heat shock proteins: Biological functions, pathological roles, and therapeutic opportunities

open access: yesMedComm, 2022
The heat shock proteins (HSPs) are ubiquitous and conserved protein families in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, and they maintain cellular proteostasis and protect cells from stresses.

Integrative genetic, genomic and transcriptomic analysis of heat shock protein and nuclear hormone receptor gene associations with spontaneous preterm birth

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Heat shock proteins are involved in the response to stress including activation of the immune response. Elevated circulating heat shock proteins are associated with spontaneous preterm birth (SPTB).

Eukaryotic DNAJ/K Database: A Comprehensive Phylogenomic Analysis Platform for the DNAJ/K Family [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2013
Proteins in DNAJ/K families are ubiquitous, from prokaryotes to eukaryotes, and function as molecular chaperones. For systematic phylogenomics of the DNAJ/K families, we developed the Eukaryotic DNAJ/K Database (EDD).

Archaebacterial heat-shock proteins [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 1984
The response to heat shock was examined in seven archaebacterial strains from the genus Halobacterium. Upon heat shock each strain preferentially synthesized a limited number of proteins which fell into three narrow mol. wt. ranges. Further examination of the heat-shock response in H.

Heat Shock Factor Is Involved in Regulating the Transcriptional Expression of Two Potential Hsps (AhHsp70 and AhsHsp21) and Its Role in Heat Shock Response of Agasicles hygrophila

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Heat shock proteins are molecular chaperones that are involved in numerous normal cellular processes and stress responses, and heat shock factors are transcriptional activators of heat shock proteins.

Identification of proteins sensitive to thermal stress in human neuroblastoma and glioma cell lines. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Heat-shock is an acute insult to the mammalian proteome. The sudden elevation in temperature has far-reaching effects on protein metabolism, leads to a rapid inhibition of most protein synthesis, and the induction of protein chaperones.

Regulation and physiological function of proteins for heat tolerance in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) genotypes under controlled and field conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The expression of heat shock proteins is considered a central adaptive mechanism to heat stress. This study investigated the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) and other stress-protective proteins against heat stress in cowpea genotypes under field

The Pathophysiological Role of Heat Shock Response in Autoimmunity: A Literature Review

open access: yesCells, 2021
Within the last two decades, there has been increasing evidence that heat-shock proteins can have a differential influence on the immune system. They can either provoke or ameliorate immune responses.

Neural functions of small heat shock proteins

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
Stress response is a cellular widespread mechanism encoded by a common protein program composed by multiple cellular factors that converge in a defense reaction to protect the cell against damage. Among many mechanisms described, heat shock proteins were

Non-lethal heat shock increased Hsp70 and immune protein transcripts but not Vibrio tolerance in the white-leg shrimp. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Non-lethal heat shock boosts bacterial and viral disease tolerance in shrimp, possibly due to increases in endogenous heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and/or immune proteins.
