Immunotherapeutic targeting of membrane Hsp70-expressing tumors using recombinant human granzyme B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: We have previously reported that human recombinant granzyme B (grB) mediates apoptosis in membrane heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70)-positive tumor cells in a perforin-independent ...

HSP70 and HSP90 in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2020
Molecular chaperones have a role to stabilize proteins or assist them in reaching their native fold. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a family of molecular chaperons that protect proteins from cellular stress during the assembly of protein complexes and also prevent the proteins from aggregation and disassembly.

Mitochondrial stress in advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis associated with chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Adaptive mitochondrial mechanisms allow mitochondrial resilience and prevent the worsening of fibrosis, while deregulation of these mechanisms promotes the progression from no/minimal‐mild (F0‐F2) fibrosis to advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis (F3‐F4). Abstract Background and Aims Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection causes oxidative stress (OS) and alters ...

The Effects of Heat Shock Proteins on Delivery of HIV-1 Nef Antigen in Mammalian Cells

open access: yesVaccine Research, 2020
Introduction: Vaccine design is mainly considered as a therapeutic strategy to elicit HIV-specific immunity. DNA vaccines encoding an antigen and also an adjuvant can induce an effective adaptive immunity. Due to having numerous roles in viral infection,

Heat shock proteins in health and disease: therapeutic targets or therapeutic agents? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
For many years, heat shock or stress proteins have been regarded as intracellular molecules that have a range of housekeeping and cytoprotective functions, only being released into the extracellular environment in pathological situations such as necrotic

AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.

Hsp70 regulates the doxorubicin-mediated heart failure in Hsp70-transgenic mice [PDF]

open access: yesCell Stress and Chaperones, 2014
The aim of this study was to investigate the potential protective effect of the Hsp70 protein in the cardiac dysfunction induced by doxorubicin (DOX) and the mechanisms of its action. For this purpose, we used both wild-type mice (F1/F1) and Hsp70-transgenic mice (Tg/Tg) overexpressing human HSP70.

Promiscuous stimulation of HSP70 ATPase activity by parasite‐derived J‐domains

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum exports three highly homologous yet functionally divergent J‐domain proteins into human erythrocytes. Here, we show that J‐domains isolated from all three proteins effectively stimulate the ATPase activity of both endogenous host and exported parasite HSP70 chaperones.

The Major Heat Shock Proteins, Hsp70 and Hsp90, in 2-Methoxyestradiol-Mediated Osteosarcoma Cell Death Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
2-Methoxyestradiol is one of the natural 17β-estradiol derivatives and a potential novel anticancer agent currently being under evaluation in advanced phases of clinical trials.

Chromosomal Localization of Five Murine HSP70 Gene Family Members: Hsp70.1, Hsp70-2, Hsp70-3, Hsc70t, and Grp78

open access: yesGenomics, 1993
The 70,000-D heat shock protein (HSP70) gene family includes both heat-inducible and constitutively expressed genes. We have mapped five murine HSP70 genes to specific sites on three separate chromosomes. Southern blot analysis of Chinese hamster x mouse somatic cell DNAs was used to assign the gene for the 78,000-D glucose-regulated protein (Grp78) to
