Heat Shock Proteins and HSF1 in Cancer [PDF]
Fitness of cells is dependent on protein homeostasis which is maintained by cooperative activities of protein chaperones and proteolytic machinery. Upon encountering protein-damaging conditions, cells activate the heat-shock response (HSR) which involves HSF1-mediated transcriptional upregulation of a group of chaperones – the heat shock proteins (HSPs)

ABSTRACTHeat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is an evolutionarily highly conserved transcription factor that coordinates stress-induced transcription and directs versatile physiological processes in eukaryotes. The central position of HSF1 in cellular homeostasis has been well demonstrated, mainly through its strong effect in transactivating genes that encode ...

Background Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is the master regulator of the heat shock response and supports malignant cell transformation. Recent work has shown that HSF1 can access the promoters of heat shock proteins (HSPs) and allow HSP expression during ...

The HSF1-CPT1a Pathway Is Differentially Regulated in NAFLD Progression
Obesity and obesity-associated diseases represent one of the key health challenges of our time. In this context, aberrant hepatic lipid accumulation is a central pathological aspect of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Protein kinase A regulates molecular chaperone transcription and protein aggregation. [PDF]
Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) regulates one of the major pathways of protein quality control and is essential for deterrence of protein-folding disorders, particularly in neuronal cells.

Riluzole increases the amount of latent HSF1 for an amplified heat shock response and cytoprotection. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Induction of the heat shock response (HSR) and increased expression of the heat shock proteins (HSPs) provide mechanisms to ensure proper protein folding, trafficking, and disposition.

Hsf1 down-regulates Hsp90. [PDF]
(A) Inhibiting Hsp90 with geldanamycin leads to Hsf1 activation. C. albicans cells were incubated with 20 µM geldanamycin for one hour, and Hsf1 phosphorylation examined by western blotting. (B) Depleting Hsp90 leads to Hsf1 activation.

HSF1 knockdown inhibits VACV infection. [PDF]
Five independent shRNAs targeting HSF1 were used to knockdown protein expression in A549 cells. The levels of HSF1 remaining after selection were quantified by immunoblot with several antibodies. (A) Representative immunoblot (anti-HSF1 J7F9).
