Role of Heat Shock Protein 65/60 in the Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Investigations in rabbits and humans have provided experimental evidence that autoimmune reactions play a major role in the initial stages of the development of atherosclerosis. These involve the infiltration of the arterial intima with T cells reacting with heat shock protein (hsp) 65/60 and the occurrence of anti-hsp 65/60 antibodies.

Cytosolic Heat Shock Protein 60, Apoptosis, and Myocardial Injury [PDF]
Background — Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are well known for their ability to “protect” the structure and function of native macromolecules, particularly as they traffic across membranes.

Heat shock factor 1 regulates lifespan as distinct from disease onset in prion disease [PDF]
Prion diseases are fatal, transmissible, neurodegenerative diseases caused by the misfolding of the prion protein (PrP). At present, the molecular pathways underlying prion-mediated neurotoxicity are largely unknown.

Suppression of Heat Shock Protein-70 by Ceramide in Heat Shock-induced HL-60 Cell Apoptosis [PDF]
Ceramide has emerged as a mediator of cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis in many biological systems. Many kinds of stresses are reported to induce apoptosis with an increase of ceramide generation. Here we showed that the intracellular ceramide levels increased in parallel with heat shock (HS)-induced apoptosis in an intensity- and time ...

A role for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the development of thermotolerance in Xenopus laevis embryos [PDF]
During heat shock, Xenopus laevis embryos exhibit an increase in the rate of accumulation of lactate and a loss of ATP relative to non-heat- shocked control embryos.

Relevance of Helicobacter pylori infection in Egyptian multiple sclerosis patients
Background Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune demyelinating disorder. The etiology of MS remains unknown exactly. Helicobacter pylori heat shock proteins were suggested as a potential trigger of immune system causing MS.
