In this study, we examined the expression of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in fish cell line CHSE-2lnl and human HeLa cells exposed to heat shock. In fish CHSE-214 cells HSP70 was the major polvpeptide induced by an elevated temperature or an amino acid analog, while in HeLa cells HSP90 as well as HSP70 were prominently enhanced in response to these stresses. Pretreatment of actinomvcin D prior to heat shock completely inhibited the induction of fish HSP70, indicating the transcriptional regulation of fish HSP70 gene expression. In HeLa and CHSE-214 cells either recovering from heat shock or experiencing prolonged heat shock, attenuation in the HSP90 a'nd HSP70 induction occurred but both induction and repression of HSP70 synthesis appear 19 precede those of HSP90. Moreover, attenuation did not occur in the syntheses of 40 kDa and 42 kOto proteins which were only induced in CHSE-214 cells. The enhanced syntheses of these he proteins continued as long as CHSE-214 cells were Siven heat shock. These results suggest that down-regulation of HSP syntheses during prolonged heat shock may be controlled by several different. as vet undefined, mechanisms.

Shen and colleagues (Lin et al., 2004) have recently shown that overexpression of the Drosophila DNA methyltransferase 2 isoform C, dDnmt2c, extended life span of fruit flies, probably due to increased expression of small heat shock proteins such as Hsp22 or Hsp26. Here, I demonstrate with immunoprecipitations that overexpressed dDnmt2c interacts with endogenous Hsp70 protein in vivo in S2 cells. However, its C-terminal half, dDnmt2c(178-345) forms approximately 10-fold more Hsp70-containing protein complexe than wild-type dDnmt2c. Overexpressed dDnmt2c(178-345) but not the full length dDnmt2c is able to increase endogenous mRNA levels of the small heat shock proteins, Hsp26 and Hsp22. I provide evidence that dDnmt2c(178-345) increases Hsp26 promoter activity via two heat shock elements, HSE6 and HSE7. Simultaneously overexpressed Hsp40 or a dominant negative form of heat shock factor abrogates the dDnmt2c(178-345)-dependent increase in Hsp26 transcription. The data support a model in which the activation of heat shock factor normally found as an inactive monomer bound to chaperones is linked to the overexpressed C-terminus of dDnmt2c. Despite the differences observed in flies and S2 cells, these findings provide a possible explanation for the extended lifespan in dDnmt2c-overexpressing flies with increased levels of small heat shock proteins.

We examined the expression patterns of heat shock proteins in primary cultured hepatocytes from flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) exposed to heat shock. The expression of hsp90, hsp70, hsp40, hsp30, and hsp27 was induced and major polypeptides were hsp70, hsp30 and hsp27. Northern blot analysis showed that expression of hsp70 was inhibited by transcriptional inhibitor actinomycin D, suggesting that expression of hsp70 gene is regulated at the transcriptional level. Prolonged exposure of cells to an elevated incubation temperature $(30^{\circ}C)$ induced the transient synthesis of hsp90, hsp70, hsp40, and hsp30 whereas maintenance of cells at a slightly higher incubation temperature $(32^{\circ}C)$ induced the continuous syntheses of these hsps. When cells were incubated at a higher temperatures $(35^{\circ}C\;or\;37^{\circ}C)$, the synthesis of hsps was almost similar to that of hsps in cells exposed to 32't except for the induction of hsp27 synthesis. These results that temperature and incubation time for optimum expression of each hsp during prolonged heat shock are different.

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are highly conserved cellular proteins that contribute to adaptive responses of organisms to a variety of stressors. In response to stressors, cellular levels of HSPs are increased and play critical roles in protein stability, folding and molecular trafficking. The mRNA expression pattern of two well-known heat shock protein transcripts, HSP70 and HSP90 were studied in two tissues of nerve ganglia, cerebral ganglion and pleuropedal ganglion of Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai). It was observed that both HSP70 and HSP90 transcripts were upregulated under heat stress in both ganglion tissues. Expression level of HSP70 was found higher than HSP90 in both ganglia whereas cerebral ganglion showed higher expression than pleuropedal ganglion. The HSP70 and HSP90 showed higher expression at Day-1 after exposed to heat stress, later decreased at Day-3 and Day-7 onwards. The present result suggested that HSP70 and HSP90 synthesize in nerve ganglion tissues and may provide efficient protection from stress.

To gain an insight into the function of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in insects during thermal stress, three HSP cDNAs were identified in the transcriptome of adult Heortia vitessoides, one of the most destructive defoliating pests in Aquilaria sinensis (Loureiro) Sprenger forests. The open reading frames of HvHsp60, HvHsp70, and HvHsp90 were 1,719, 2,070, and 2,151 bp in length, respectively, and encoded proteins with molecular weights of 61.05, 75.02, and 82.23 kDa, respectively. Sequence analysis revealed that all three HSPs were highly conserved in structure. Regarding the stage-specific expression profiles, HvHsp60, HvHsp70, and HvHsp90 mRNAs were detected in all developmental stages. Regarding the tissue-specific expression profiles, the expression levels of the three HSP genes were different in various larval and adult tissues. Moreover, the expression patterns of heat-stressed larvae, pupae, and adults indicated that HvHsp60, HvHsp70, and HvHsp90 were heat-inducible. In particular, HvHsp60 transcripts increased dramatically in larvae and pupae that were heat-stressed at $40^{\circ}C$ and were upregulated in adults that were heat-stressed at $35^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$. The expression of HvHsp70 significantly increased in all of the three different developmental stages at $35^{\circ}C$, $40^{\circ}C$, and $45^{\circ}C$. The expression of HvHsp90 obviously increased at $30^{\circ}C$, $35^{\circ}C$, and $40^{\circ}C$ in larvae and could be induced at $35^{\circ}C$ in pupae and adults. The results suggest that HSP60, HSP70, and HSP90 play a major role in protecting H. vitessoides against high-temperature stress.

기후변화는 현대 축산업이 직면한 가장 큰 위협 중의 하나이고, 특히 열 스트레스는 가금의 생산성 저하뿐만 아니라, 가축의 불편함과 고통을 증가시켜 동물의 복지에도 치명적 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 열 스트레스를 완화시키기 위한 다양한 전략들이 요구되는데, 가축의 열 스트레스에 대한 정확한 평가와 생물학적 평가지표의 개발은 기후변화에 대한 적응과 열 저항성 가금의 육종, 지속 가능한 가금 산업과 동물복지를 위해서 매우 중요하다. 스트레스호르몬, hetero- phils lymphocytes의 비율, 텔로미어 마모 정도 등 열 스트레스에 대한 다양한 바이오마커 중에 열충격단백질(HSPs)은 세포내 온도계로 여겨지며, HSPs 중에서도 HSP70은 가장 풍부한 단백질이면서 열 충격에 민감하게 반응하는 바이오 마커로 알려져 있다. HSP는 또한 열 충격으로부터 세포를 보호해주는 샤페론 활성을 지니고 있다. 따라서 HSP70 바이오마커는 가축의 열 스트레스에 대한 체계적 평가방법으로 주목받고 있으며, HSP70의 발현 변화의 이해는 기후변화에 대처하면서 지속가능한 가금 산업을 위해 매우 중요하고 판단된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 닭의 열 스트레스와 관련하여 HSP70을 중심으로 HSP의 작용기전과 역할, 열 스트레스와 HSP, 내열성 가축 선발을 위한 HSP70의 잠재성, 그리고 열 스트레스 바이오마커로서의 HSP70 등에 대한 최근까지의 연구들을 소개한다.

K562 백혈구암 세포의 phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA)에 의한 대핵세포로의 분화과정에서 heat shock proteins(HSPs)와 glucose-regulated proteins(GRPs)의 발현을 조사하였다. PMA에 의한 K562 세포의 분화 특징은 세포성장의 억제, 형태학적 변화, gpllIa의 발현 증가, c-myc 발현의 감소 등으로 나타난다. PMA에 의한 대핵세포 분화과정에서, HSP90A, HSP90B 그리고 HSP28 mRNA와 단백질 합성은 현저히 감소하는 반면, GRP78/BiP와 GRP94의 mRNA 합성은 증가하였다. 한편 HSP7OA와 HSP7OB의 mRNA 합성은 감소하였지만, HSP70 단백질의 합성은 변함이 없었다. 이러한 결과는 HSPs와 GRPs가 K562 세포의 증식 또는 대핵세포 분화 과정에서 특이한 역할을 할 것임을 시사하고 있다.

Water temperature influences on various key biological events in fish, but the internal pathway of the temperature effects are not well understood. Heat shock proteins (HSPs), known to respond in the level of cells to many environmental factors including temperature, could improve our understanding on the pathway. Some biological processes such as gonadal development and sex differentiation in the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus is particularly sensitive to water temperature. In this study, we have investigated the expressions of HSP70 and HSP90 genes in young tilapia at an ordinary temperature ($28^{\circ}C$) and elevated water temperature ($36^{\circ}C$). The distribution of the expressions of HSP70 and HSP90 mRNA in this species were found to be almost ubiquitous, being detected in all tissues studied here (brain, gonad, liver and muscle), suggesting the house keeping functions of these genes. Heat shock by elevating temperature from $28^{\circ}C$ to $36^{\circ}C$ significantly increased the expression of HSP70 mRNA in the gonad, liver and muscle for several hours (P<0.05) (brain tissue was not examined for this). The increased level of HSP70 gene expression recovered to the level at control temperature ($28^{\circ}C$) when fish were kept continuously at high temperature ($36^{\circ}C$) for 24 hours. Contrary to this, expression of HSP90 mRNA did not show significant increase in the gonad and muscle by the same heat shock (P>0.05), except in the liver where the expression of HSP90 mRNA increased continuously for 24 hours at $36^{\circ}C$. The results obtained in this study suggest that response to temperature change in different tissue or organ may utilize different heat shock proteins, and that HSP70 may have some importance in temperature-sensitive gonadal event in the Nile tilapia.

Heat shock proteins (HSPs), one of the most highly conserved groups of proteins characterized to date, play crucial roles in protecting cells against environmental stresses, such as heat shock, salinity and oxidative stress. The glutathione S-transferases (GST) have important role in detoxification of oxidative stress, environmental chemicals and environmental stress. GST mRNA expression have been used as biomarkers on environmental stress. The purpose of this study was to investigate the death rate and the gene expression of Hsp70 and GST during air exposure and starvation. Results showed that, the expression of Hsp70 mRNA was significantly changed in the experiment groups, such as air exposure and starvation. GST mRNA expression was significantly increased in the experimental group of starvation. These results suggest that Hsp70 and GST were played roles in biomarker gene on the air exposure and starvation.

To study the functioning of HSP70 in Escherichia coli, we selected NtHSP70-2 (AY372070) from among three genomic clones isolated in Nicotiana tabacum. Recombinant NtHSP70-2, containing a hexahistidine tag at the amino-terminus, was constructed, expressed in E. coli, and purified by $Ni^{2+}$ affinity chromatography and Q Sepharose Fast Flow anion exchange chromatography. The expressed fusion protein, $H_6NtHSP70$-2 (hexahistidine-tagged Nicotiana tabacum heat shock protein 70-2), maintained the stability of E. coli proteins up to 90$^{\circ}C$. Measuring the light scattering of luciferase (luc) revealed that NtHSP70-2 prevents the aggregation of luc without ATP during high-temperature stress. In a functional bioassay (1 h at 50$^{\circ}C$) for recombinant $H_6NtHSP70$-2, E. coli cells overexpressing $H_6NtHSP70$-2 survived about seven times longer than those lacking $H_6NtHSP70$-2. After 2 h at 50$^{\circ}C$, only the E. coli overexpressing $H_6NtHSP70$-2 survived under such conditions. Our NtHSP70-2 bioassays, as well as in vitro studies, strongly suggest that HSP70 confers thermo-tolerance to E. coli.
