The maternal effects of heat shock on biological parameters and ovaries of Frankliniella occidentalis (Thysanoptera: Thripidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2019
Maternal effects of heat shock are reported for some species of insects, but little is known about such effects in the western flower thrips (WFT) Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae). WFT is a pest of vegetables in greenhouses

Heat-Shock Proteins in Neuroinflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
The heat-shock response, one of the main pro-survival mechanisms of a living organism, has evolved as the biochemical response of cells to cope with heat stress.

Regulation Between HSF1 Isoforms and HSPs Contributes to the Variation in Thermal Tolerance Between Two Oyster Congeners

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
Heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) plays an important role in regulating heat shock, which can activate heat shock proteins (HSPs). HSPs can protect organisms from thermal stress. Oysters in the intertidal zone can tolerate thermal stress.

Proteotoxic stress reprograms the chromatin landscape of SUMO modification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The small ubiquitin-like modifier 2 (SUMO-2) is required for survival when cells are exposed to treatments that induce proteotoxic stress by causing the accumulation of misfolded proteins.

Expression of Hsp72 in Lymphocytes in Patients with Febrile Convulsion

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2005
The pathophysiology of febrile convulsion, the most common childhood neurologic disease, remains unclear. In this study, we investigated what role a heat shock protein plays in this disease.

Effects of Heat Shock on Photosynthetic Properties, Antioxidant Enzyme Activity, and Downy Mildew of Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Heat shock is considered an abiotic stress for plant growth, but the effects of heat shock on physiological responses of cucumber plant leaves with and without downy mildew disease are still not clear.

Heat Shock Proteins as Immunomodulants

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are conserved molecules whose main role is to facilitate folding of other proteins. Most Hsps are generally stress-inducible as they play a particularly important cytoprotective role in cells exposed to stressful conditions ...

Diversification of the Caenorhabditis heat shock response by Helitron transposable elements. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Heat Shock Factor 1 (HSF-1) is a key regulator of the heat shock response (HSR). Upon heat shock, HSF-1 binds well-conserved motifs, called Heat Shock Elements (HSEs), and drives expression of genes important for cellular protection during this stress ...

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.

Evolution of heat‐shock protein expression underlying adaptive responses to environmental stress

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, 2018
Heat‐shock proteins (Hsps) and their cognates are primary mitigators of cell stress. With increasingly severe impacts of climate change and other human modifications of the biosphere, the ability of the heat‐shock system to affect evolutionary fitness in
