Contribution of time of day and the circadian clock to the heat stress responsive transcriptome in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
In Arabidopsis, a large subset of heat responsive genes exhibits diurnal or circadian oscillations. However, to what extent the dimension of time and/or the circadian clock contribute to heat stress responses remains largely unknown.

Recent Advances in Genetic and Epigenetic Modulation of Animal Exposure to High Temperature
Animals have evolved multiple systems, including genetic and epigenetic systems, to respond accordingly to heat exposure and heat acclimation. Heat exposure greatly affects immunity, changes metabolic processes, and poses a serious threat to animals ...

The Plant Heat Stress Transcription Factors (HSFs): Structure, Regulation, and Function in Response to Abiotic Stresses [PDF]
Abiotic stresses such as high temperature, salinity and drought adversely affect the survival, growth and reproduction of plants. Plants respond to such unfavorable changes through developmental, physiological and biochemical ways, and these responses ...

Identifying gene regulatory modules of heat shock response in yeast
Background A gene regulatory module (GRM) is a set of genes that is regulated by the same set of transcription factors (TFs). By organizing the genome into GRMs, a living cell can coordinate the activities of many genes in response to various internal ...

A guide to heat shock factors as multifunctional transcriptional regulators
The heat shock factors (HSFs) form a family of transcription factors, which are evolutionarily conserved in eukaryotes. They are best known as transcriptional regulators of molecular chaperone genes, including those encoding heat shock proteins, in response to heat shock and other protein‐damaging stresses.

Heat shock induces rapid resorption of primary cilia [PDF]
Primary cilia are involved in important developmental and disease pathways, such as the regulation of neurogenesis and tumorigenesis. They function as sensory antennae and are essential in the regulation of key extracellular signalling systems.

Heat shock transcription factor 1 preserves cardiac angiogenesis and adaptation during pressure overload [PDF]
To examine how heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) protects against maladaptive hypertrophy during pressure overload, we subjected HSF1 transgenic (TG), knockout (KO) and wild type (WT) mice to a constriction of transverse aorta (TAC), and found ...

Heat shock factor 1 mediates the longevity conferred by inhibition of TOR and insulin/IGF-1 signaling pathways in C. elegans [PDF]
Target of rapamycin (TOR) signaling is an evolutionarily well-conserved pathway that regulates various physiologic processes, including aging and metabolism. One of the key downstream components of TOR signaling is ribosomal protein S6 kinase (S6K) whose
