Heat Shock Protein 60 and Immune Inflammatory Responses in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Hallmarks of inflammation in various cardiovascular diseases, notably atherosclerosis, have been observed for a long time. However, evidence for an (auto)antigen-driven process at these sites of inflammation has come forward only recently. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been identified as playing either immunologically mediated disease promoting or ...

cis-acting sequences and trans-acting factors in the localization of mRNA for mitochondrial ribosomal proteins [PDF]
mRNA localization is a conserved post-transcriptional process crucial for a variety of systems. Although several mechanisms have been identified, emerging evidence suggests that most transcripts reach the protein functional site by moving along ...

Effects of early age feed restriction and heat conditioning on heterophil/lymphocyte ratios, heat shock protein 70 expression and body temperature of heat-stressed broiler chickens [PDF]
We examined the effects of early age feed restriction and heat conditioning on heterophil/lymphocyte ratios (HLR), heat shock protein (hsp) 70 expression and body temperature of heat-stressed male broiler chickens.

Could Upregulated Hsp70 Protein Compensate for the Hsp90-Silence-Induced Cell Death in Glioma Cells? [PDF]
The molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 alpha (Hsp90α) has been recognized in various tumours including glioma. This pilot study using a proteomic approach analyses the downstream effects of Hsp90 inhibition using 17-allylamino-17 ...

Circulating heat shock protein 60 levels are elevated in HIV patients and are reduced by anti-retroviral therapy. [PDF]
Circulating heat shock protein 60 (Hsp60) and heat shock protein 10 (Hsp10) have been associated with pro- and anti-inflammatory activity, respectively. To determine whether these heat shock proteins might be associated with the immune activation seen in

Environmental stress responses in Lactococcus lactis [PDF]
Bacteria can encounter a variety of physical conditions during their life. Bacterial cells are able to survive these (often adverse) conditions by the induction of specific or general protection mechanisms. The lactic acid bacterium Lactococcus lactis is

Heat Shock Protein-60 and Risk for Cardiovascular Disease
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. There is growing evidence that molecular chaperones, many of which are heat shock proteins HSPs, are involved in CVD pathogenesis. In this review we focus on HSP60, the human mitochondrial chaperone that also displays extramitochondrial and extracellular functions ...
