The Role of Hsp27 in Chemotherapy Resistance
Heat shock protein (Hsp)-27 is a small-sized, ATP-independent, chaperone molecule that is overexpressed under conditions of cellular stress such as oxidative stress and heat shock, and protects proteins from unfolding, thus facilitating proteostasis and ...

Heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) is a protein that works as a chaperone and an antioxidant and is activated by heat shock, environmental stress, and pathophysiological stress. However, HSP27 dysregulation is a characteristic of many human cancers.

Hsp27 oligomer is reported to interact with F-actin as a barbed-end-capping protein. The present study determined the binding strength and stoichiometry of the interaction using fluorescence of probes attached to Hsp27 cysteine-137.

Translocation of HSP27 and MKBP in Ischemic Heart.
HSP27 and MKBP translocate from the cytosolic to myofibril fraction in ischemic rat heart as demonstrated by immunoblotting. Immunohistochemistry analysis showed that ischemia enhances the Z line labeling of HSP27 and MKBP. Two dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that ischemia increases the hyperphosphorylated form of HSP27.

Biological Significance of Decreased HSP27 in Human Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Objective— Because culprit atherosclerotic plaques contain proteases, we hypothesized that the diminished heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) released by atherosclerotic plaques could be due to proteolysis. We assessed the role of HSP27 in human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) under proteolytic injury.

SUMMARY In response to lysosomal damage, cells engage several quality-control mechanisms, including the selective isolation and degradation of damaged lysosomes by lysophagy. Here, we report that the selective autophagy adaptor SQSTM1/p62 is recruited to

Ischemic stroke causes brain endothelial cell (BEC) death and damages tight junction integrity of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). We harnessed the innate mitochondrial load of endothelial cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) and utilized mixtures of ...

Sensitized heat shock protein 27 induces retinal ganglion cells apoptosis in rat glaucoma model [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the relationships between the changes of heat shock protein 27 antibody (anti-HSP27) in serum/cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), intraocular pressure (IOP), retinal ganglion cell (RGC) apoptosis in a rat glaucoma model and disclose the ...

The heat shock protein Hsp27 controls mitochondrial function by modulating ceramide generation
SUMMARY Sphingolipids have key functions in membrane structure and cellular signaling. Ceramide is the central molecule of the sphingolipid metabolism and is generated by ceramide synthases (CerS) in the de novo pathway.
