Heat Shock Response, Heat Shock Transcription Factor and Cell Aging

open access: yesNeurosignals, 1996
A characteristic feature of aging is a progressive impairment in the ability to adapt to environmental challenges. The purpose of this article is to review the evidence of an attenuated response to heat and physiological stresses in a number of mammalian aging model systems, including the human diploid fibroblasts in culture, whole animals and animal ...

Characteristics and Regulating Roles of Wheat TaHsfA2-13 in Abiotic Stresses

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Heat shock transcription factor (Hsf) exists widely in eukaryotes and responds to various abiotic stresses by regulating the expression of downstream transcription factors, functional enzymes, and molecular chaperones.

Cell Cycle Regulation by Heat Shock Transcription Factors

open access: yesCells, 2022
Cell division and cell cycle mechanism has been studied for 70 years. This research has revealed that the cell cycle is regulated by many factors, including cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) have been noted as critical proteins for cell survival against various stresses; however, recent studies suggest

A model for handling cell stress

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The heat shock response in yeast is regulated by the interaction between a chaperone protein and a heat shock transcription factor, and fine-tuned by phosphorylation.

Molecular Mechanisms of Heat Shock Factors in Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2020
Malignant transformation is accompanied by alterations in the key cellular pathways that regulate development, metabolism, proliferation and motility as well as stress resilience. The members of the transcription factor family, called heat shock factors (

Activation of Heat Shock Transcription Factor 1 in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Pathology, 2003
Previous work established that increased expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in the vessel wall might evoke proinflammatory and autoimmune reactions in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The present study was designed to further scrutinize the molecular mechanisms of HSP expression involving activation of heat shock transcription factors (HSFs ...

Proteolytic mapping of heat shock transcription factor domains [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 1996
AbstractHeat shock transcription factors (HSFs) of higher eukaryotes respond to physical and cellular stress signals by tri‐merizing, binding to a specific site on DNA, and transactivating genes encoding the heat shock proteins. In this work, limited proteolysis was used as a biochemical probe of the domain organization of Drosophila HSF.

Differential gene expression studies on HsfA4d, HsfB2a and ClpD1/HSP100 during heat stress in the rice varieties N22 and Co51

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2020
In the present investigation, differential expression of two transcription factor genes (HsfA4d and HsfB2a) and a heat shock protein (ClpD1/HSP100) was evaluated in the rice varieties N22 and Co 51 using qRT-PCR.
