Heat shock inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced tissue factor activity in human whole blood [PDF]
Background During gram-negative sepsis, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces tissue factor expression on monocytes. The resulting disseminated intravascular coagulation leads to tissue ischemia and worsens the prognosis of septic patients.

Robust Heat Shock Response in Chlamydia Lacking a Typical Heat Shock Sigma Factor [PDF]
Cells reprogram their transcriptome in response to stress, such as heat shock. In free-living bacteria, the transcriptomic reprogramming is mediated by increased DNA-binding activity of heat shock sigma factors and activation of genes normally repressed ...

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

Regulation of the mammalian heat shock factor 1 [PDF]
Living organisms are endowed with the capability to tackle various forms of cellular stress due to the presence of molecular chaperone machinery complexes that are ubiquitous throughout the cell. During conditions of proteotoxic stress, the transcription

Heat shock transcription factor HSFB2b negatively regulates plant thermomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis
In order to explore whether heat shock transcription factor (HSF) known to be involved in plant adaptation to extreme heat stress is also involved in plant thermomorphogenesis at warm temperatures, the result of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, physiological ...

Functional diversification of heat shock factors
AbstractHeat shock transcription factors (HSFs) are widely known as master regulators of the heat shock response. In invertebrates, a single heat shock factor, HSF1, is responsible for the maintenance of protein homeostasis. In vertebrates, seven members of the HSF family have been identified, namely HSF1, HSF2, HSF3, HSF4, HSF5, HSFX, and HSFY, of ...

Is there a role for HSF1 in viral infections?
Cells undergo numerous processes to adapt to new challenging conditions and stressors. Heat stress is regulated by a family of heat shock factors (HSFs) that initiate a heat shock response by upregulating the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs ...
