Divergent Roles of mGlu2 and mGlu3 Receptors in Amyloid‐β Production and Cognitive Dysfunctions in Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores the opposing effects of the mGluR2 and mGluR3 receptors on amyloid precursor protein processing. mGluR2 promotes amyloidogenic cleavage, while mGluR3 favors non‐amyloidogenic pathways. Using a brain‐penetrant nanobody as a mGluR2 positive allosteric modulator, the study uncovers how its chronic activation aggravates amyloid‐β burden

A Hydrogen‐Releasing Nanozyme Engineers a Mitochondrial ROS Amplifier for Self‐Sustaining Catalytic Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We developed a RhPd‐H nanozyme that integrates enhanced POD‐mimetic catalytic activity with thermally triggered H2 release. H2 shields and reprograms mitochondria to continuously leak endogenous ·O2−. This dual‐path ROS spatially and temporally disrupts redox homeostasis, inducing persistent oxidative stress for tumor suppression and antitumor immunity,

Roles of heat shock factor 1 beyond the heat shock response

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2018
Various stress factors leading to protein damage induce the activation of an evolutionarily conserved cell protective mechanism, the heat shock response (HSR), to maintain protein homeostasis in virtually all eukaryotic cells. Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) plays a central role in the HSR. HSF1 was initially known as a transcription factor that upregulates

Roles of the heat shock transcription factors in regulation of the heat shock response and beyond

FASEB Journal, 2001
ABSTRACT The heat shock response, characterized by increased expression of heat shock proteins (Hsps) is induced by exposure of cells and tissues to extreme conditions that cause acute or chronic stress. Hsps function as molecular chaperones in regulating cellular homeostasis and promoting survival.

Heat Shock Transcription Factors: Structure and Regulation

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 1995
Organisms respond to elevated temperatures and to chemical and physiological stresses by an increase in the synthesis of heat shock proteins. The regulation of heat shock gene expression in eukaryotes is mediated by the conserved heat shock transcription factor (HSF).

Roles of heat shock factors in gametogenesis and development

FEBS Journal, 2010
Heat shock factors form a family of transcription factors (four in mammals), which were named according to the first discovery of their activation by heat shock. As a result of the universality and robustness of their response to heat shock, the stress‐dependent activation of heat shock factor became a ‘paradigm’: by binding to conserved DNA sequences (

Feedback regulation of heat shock factor 1 (Hsf1) activity by Hsp70‐mediated trimer unzipping and dissociation from DNA

open access: yesEMBO Journal, 2020
The heat shock response is a universal transcriptional response to proteotoxic stress orchestrated by heat shock transcription factor Hsf1 in all eukaryotic cells.

Molecular mechanisms of heat shock factor 1 regulation.

TIBS -Trends in Biochemical Sciences. Regular ed, 2021
To thrive and to fulfill their functions, cells need to maintain proteome homeostasis even in the face of adverse environmental conditions or radical restructuring of the proteome during differentiation.

The Phosphorylation of the Heat Shock Factor as a Modulator for the Heat Shock Response

IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics, 2011
The heat shock response is a well-conserved defence mechanism against the accumulation of misfolded proteins due to prolonged elevated heat. The cell responds to heat shock by raising the levels of heat shock proteins (hsp), which are responsible for chaperoning protein refolding.
