Co-induction of HSP70 and heme oxygenase-1 in macrophages and glia after spinal cord contusion in the rat

HSP70 and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) are thought to be markers of cell injury and oxidative stress, respectively. We have immunolocalized these proteins in the spinal cord at 1-14 days after contusion. HSP70 and HO-1 were co-induced in glia and macrophages within the injured segment at all time points. This co-induction may reflect complementary functions that serve to protect these cells as they respond to the postcontusional environment.     

手术治疗对阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征患者夜间微觉醒与心率变异的影响

目的:探讨阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征(OSAHS)患者微觉醒与心率变异(HRV)的关系及手术后的变化。方法:对54例重度OSAHS患者行手术前后PSG。分析1 h内每个呼吸紊乱相关微觉醒开始前10 s的平均心率(HR)和微觉醒开始后10 s的最高HR比较。同时计算1 h内呼吸紊乱相关微觉醒指数(B-Arl)和脉率升高指数(PRRI)并作相关分析。比较不伴微觉醒事件和伴有微觉醒事件的心率差(△HR)及手术后的影响。结果:微觉醒开始后10 s的最高HR显著高于微觉醒开始前的平均HR,且B-Arl与PRRI呈显著正相关,伴有微觉醒的呼吸事件终止前后△HR显著高于不伴微觉醒的呼吸事件的△HR,手术后患者△HR显著低于术前。结论:B-Arl与夜间HRV相关,提示微觉醒可影响心血管调节功能,频繁的微觉醒是导致心血管疾病的重要原因之一。手术可通过减少微觉醒来减轻患者的心血管损害。     

实验性脉络膜新生血管经瞳孔温热疗法后热休克蛋白70的表达及意义

目的 探讨热休克蛋白70（HSP70）在经瞳孔温热疗法（TTT）治疗脉络膜新生血管（CNV）中的作用及机制.方法 通过氪红激光眼底光凝诱导C57BL/6J小鼠30只（30只眼）产生CNV,6 d后,观察眼底荧光血管造影（FFA）,给予阈值上、阈值、阈值下TTT治疗及不治疗对照.正常C57BL/6J小鼠16只（16只眼）,给予相应阈值上、阈值、阈值下TTT治疗.TTT治疗后7 d,观察FFA,摘除眼球,做病理学检查和HSP70免疫组织化学检测.结果 C57BL/6J小鼠CNV进行TTT治疗后7 d,与未治疗对照组相比,阈值下和阈值TTT组CNV复合体明显变薄 阈值上TTT组CNV复合体未见明显变薄,新生血管腔无明显减少.正常眼和未经TTT治疗的CNV眼,HSP70阴性.实验性CNV和正常视网膜经TTT治疗后,HSP70免疫染色阳性可见于视网膜视锥视杆细胞层、外丛状层,染色范围取决于TTT能量大小.结论 阈值下TTT治疗CNV,眼底镜下视网膜尚无明显变化时,HSP70在视网膜已有表达.HSP70在TTT抑制CNV的形成中起重要作用.TTT的能量、热休克蛋白的表达与CNV减少,三者之间的关系有待量化以指导临床.

Biological Activities of 2-Mercaptobenzothiazole Derivatives: A Review

2-Mercaptobenzothiazoles are an important class of bioactive and industrially important organic compounds. These compounds are reported for their antimicrobial and antifungal activities, and are subsequently highlighted as a potent mechanism-based inhibitor of several enzymes like acyl coenzyme A cholesterol acyltransferase, monoamine oxidase, heat shock protein 90, cathepsin D, and c-Jun N-terminal kinases. These derivatives are also known to possess antitubercular, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, amoebic, antiparkinsonian, anthelmintic, antihypertensive, antihyperlipidemic, antiulcer, chemoprotective, and selective CCR3 receptor antagonist activity. This present review article focuses on the pharmacological profile of 2-mercaptobenzothiazoles with their potential activities.     

Increased inducible heat shock protein 72 expression associated with PBMC isolated from patients with haematological tumours

Abstract

Background. Heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72) is a highly inducible stress protein and molecular chaperone. Cancers have been shown to be associated with increased Hsp72 expression within the tumour itself and this may lead to resistance to apoptosis. Methods. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from patients diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) (n =?27) and chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) (n =?16) and Hsp72 expression was characterized on both the cell surface and intracellularly by flow cytometry. To allow for comparison PBMC from breast cancer patients (n =?25) and healthy volunteers (n =?19) were included. Results. Both lymphocytes and monocytes from CLL and CMML patients showed high levels of total Hsp72 expression (4–6 fold increase) in comparison to breast cancer and healthy subjects. The majority of Hsp72 in these tumours was determined to be cell-surface expressed (64–93% of cell total Hsp72). Conclusions. A correlation was observed between lymphocyte and monocyte total Hsp72 expression (p <?0.001) suggesting a common stress response pathway may exist in these blood cells and there are stress conditions present within the circulation. Hsp72 expression was not found to be related to white blood cell count.
