Targeting Heat Shock Proteins in Cancer: A Promising Therapeutic Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2017
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a large family of chaperones that are involved in protein folding and maturation of a variety of “client” proteins protecting them from degradation, oxidative stress, hypoxia, and thermal stress. Hence, they are significant

Proteolysis in the Escherichia coli heat shock response: a player at many levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Proteolysis is a fundamental process used by all forms of life to maintain homeostasis, as well as to remodel the proteome following environmental changes.

Changes in the transcriptome of morula-stage bovine embryos caused by heat shock: relationship to developmental acquisition of thermotolerance

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2013
Background While initially sensitive to heat shock, the bovine embryo gains thermal resistance as it progresses through development so that physiological heat shock has little effect on development to the blastocyst stage by Day 5 after insemination ...

Small heat shock proteins: Simplicity meets complexity

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are a ubiquitous and ancient family of ATP-independent molecular chaperones. A key characteristic of sHsps is that they exist in ensembles of iso-energetic oligomeric species differing in size.

Hsp70 in mitochondrial biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The family of hsp70 (70 kilodalton heat shock protein) molecular chaperones plays an essential and diverse role in cellular physiology, Hsp70 proteins appear to elicit their effects by interacting with polypeptides that present domains which exhibit non ...

Functions and Therapeutic Use of Heat Shock Proteins in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesLivers
Heat shock proteins are intracellular proteins expressed in prokaryotes and eukaryotes that help protect the cell from stress. They play an important role in regulating cell cycle and cell death, work as molecular chaperons during the folding of newly ...

The Emerging Role of Heat Shock Factor 1 (HSF1) and Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) in Ferroptosis

open access: yesPathophysiology, 2023
Cells employ a well-preserved physiological stress response mechanism, termed the heat shock response, to activate a certain type of molecular chaperone called heat shock proteins (HSPs).

Heat Shock Response and Heat Shock Proteins: Current Understanding and Future Opportunities in Human Diseases

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
The heat shock response is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that protects cells or organisms from the harmful effects of various stressors such as heat, chemicals toxins, UV radiation, and oxidizing agents.

Heat Shock Proteins Regulatory Role in Neurodevelopment

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are a large family of molecular chaperones that are well-known for their roles in protein maturation, re-folding and degradation.
