The Role of Heat Shock Transcription Factor 1 in the Genome-wide Regulation of the Mammalian Heat Shock Response [PDF]
Previous work has implicated heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) as the primary transcription factor responsible for the transcriptional response to heat stress in mammalian cells. We characterized the heat shock response of mammalian cells by measuring changes in transcript levels and assaying binding of HSF1 to promoter regions for candidate ...

Background As a relatively conservative transcriptional regulator in biological evolution, heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is activated by, and regulates the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in response to a variety of stress conditions.

The membrane-associated transient receptor potential vanilloid channel is the central heat shock receptor controlling the cellular heat shock response in epithelial cells. [PDF]
The heat shock response (HSR) is a highly conserved molecular response to various types of stresses, including heat shock, during which heat-shock proteins (Hsps) are produced to prevent and repair damages in labile proteins and membranes.

Interaction between Arabidopsis heat shock transcription factor 1 and 70 kDa heat shock proteins [PDF]
The activity of the Arabidopsis heat shock transcription factor (HSF) is repressed at normal conditions but activated by cellular stresses. Circumstantial evidence suggests that HSP70 may function as a negative feedback regulator of HSF activity. Here the interaction between HSF and HSP70 is reported using electrophoretic mobility shift and yeast two ...

Heat shock factor 1‐independent activation of dendritic cells by heat shock: implication for the uncoupling of heat‐mediated immunoregulation from the heat shock response [PDF]
AbstractThe induction of heat shock proteins by heat shock is classically defined as the heat shock response, which is involved in cytoprotection, inflammation and immune responses. Whereas the cytoprotective properties of heat shock have been well characterized, the immunomodulating roles of the heat shock response on the immune system are just ...
