Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90) Expression and Breast Cancer [PDF]
Hsp90 is an abundant protein in mammalian cells. It forms several discrete complexes, each containing distinct groups of co-chaperones that assist protein folding and refolding during stress, protein transport and degradation. It interacts with a variety of proteins that play key roles in breast neoplasia including estrogen receptors, tumor suppressor ...

Circulating heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and autoantibodies to Hsp90 are increased in patients with atopic dermatitis [PDF]
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is one of the most common chronic inflammatory dermatoses characterized by persistent itching and recurrent eczematous lesions. While the primary events and key drivers of AD are topics of ongoing debate, cutaneous inflammation due to inappropriate IgE (auto)antibody-related immune reactions is frequently considered.

Heat Shock Proteins and Ferroptosis
Ferroptosis is a new form of regulatory cell death named by Dixon in 2012, which is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides and iron ions. Molecular chaperones are a class of evolutionarily conserved proteins in the cytoplasm. They recognize

Heat shock protein 90 in neurodegenerative diseases
Hsp90 is a molecular chaperone with important roles in regulating pathogenic transformation. In addition to its well-characterized functions in malignancy, recent evidence from several laboratories suggests a role for Hsp90 in maintaining the functional ...

Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90) and Her2 in Adenocarcinomas of the Esophagus [PDF]
Her2 overexpression and amplification can be found in a significant subset of esophageal adenocarcinomas. The activity of Her2 has been shown to be modulated by molecular chaperones such as HSP90. We analyzed expression/amplification data for HSP90 and Her2 on 127 primary resected esophageal adenocarcinomas in order to evaluate a possible relationship ...

The small-molecule kinase inhibitor D11 counteracts 17-AAG-mediated up-regulation of HSP70 in brain cancer cells. [PDF]
Many types of cancer express high levels of heat shock proteins (HSPs) that are molecular chaperones regulating protein folding and stability ensuring protection of cells from potentially lethal stress.

Bacterial Hsp90 Facilitates the Degradation of Aggregation-Prone Hsp70–Hsp40 Substrates
In eukaryotes, the 90-kDa heat shock proteins (Hsp90s) are profusely studied chaperones that, together with 70-kDa heat shock proteins (Hsp70s), control protein homeostasis.

Conformational Transitions of Heat Shock Proteins: The Case of Hsp90 [PDF]
The most abundant cellular protein, Hsp90, partakes in many biological pathways, not only in times of induced stress, but also under normal physiological conditions. Its role in controlling proteostasis, by assisting in protein folding and reducing aggregation, together with its direct involvement in cancer cell survival and neurological disorders ...
