Induction of HSP72 in Rat Liver by Chronic Ethanol Consumption Combined with Exercise: Association with the Prevention of Ethanol-Induced Fatty Liver by Exercise

Ethanol-induced fatty liver in rats was attenuated by repeated running exercise, and the protective effect of exercise was associated with the synergistic expression of heat shock proteins (HSP72). Rats were placed in four groups of six. The two ethanol-fed groups of rats received a liquid diet (Lieber-DeCarli formulation) in which 36% of the calories were derived from ethanol. One group remained sedentary (S/E), whereas the other was trained to run on a rodent treadmill at a speed of 27 m/min, 1 hr/day, 5 days/week, for 7 weeks (R/E). Two other groups–one exercised as previously mentioned (R/C) and one sedentary (S/C)–received control-liquid diets in which the ethanol was isocalorically substituted with a dextran/maltose mixture. The degree of fatty infiltration in liver sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin was graded on a 0–4 scale and the data analyzed by ANOVA on ranks. Ethanol significantly induced fatty infiltration in the S/E group, whereas fatty infiltration in the livers of the R/E group was not different from the S/C group. Electrophoresis and Western blotting of liver homogenates demonstrated that HSP72 was not expressed in either the S/C or S/E groups and was only slightly expressed in the R/C group. The combination of exercise and ethanol, however, resulted in an elevated expression of HSP72 in the R/E group. The content of HSP73 was unaffected by any treatment.     

Immunohistochemical analysis of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and heat shock proteins (HSPs) in ameloblastomas

BACKGROUND: To clarify the possible role of nitric oxide (NO) and stress proteins in oncogenesis and cytodifferentiation of odontogenic epithelium. Inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and heat shock proteins (HSPs) were analyzed in ameloblastomas as well as in tooth germs. METHODS: Specimens of seven tooth germs, 36 benign ameloblastomas and five malignant ameloblastomas were examined by immunohistochemistry using antibodies against iNOS and 27-, 60- and 70-kDa HSPs (HSP27, HSP60 and HSP70). RESULTS: Immunoreactivity for iNOS was detected in normal and neoplastic odontogenic epithelial cells and was higher in malignant ameloblastomas than in tooth germs and benign ameloblastomas. HSP27 was expressed constitutively in all odontogenic epithelial cells in tooth germs and benign and malignant ameloblastomas. Expression of HSP60 and HSP70 was detected in normal and neoplastic odontogenic epithelial cells and was prominent in cells neighboring the basement membrane. HSP60 reactivity showed no apparent difference between normal and neoplastic odontogenic epithelium, whereas HSP70 expression was slightly higher in benign and malignant ameloblastomas than in tooth germs. CONCLUSIONS: Activation of iNOS might be associated with malignant potential of epithelial odontogenic tumors. Elevated expression of HSP70 is considered to be involved in neoplastic transformation of odontogenic epithelial cells.

Heat shock proteins HSP25, HSP60, HSP72, HSP73 in isoosmotic cortex and hyperosmotic medulla of rat kidney

The distribution of heat shock proteins (HSP) HSP60, HSP73, HSP72 and HSP25 in the isoosmotic cortex and the hyperosmotic medulla of the rat kidney was investigated using Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. HSP73 was homogeneously distributed throughout the whole kidney. The level of HSP60 was high in the renal cortex and low in the medulla. HSP25 and HSP72 were present in large amounts in the medulla. Only low levels of HSP25 and almost undetectable amounts of HSP72 were found in the cortex. HSP25 exists in one nonphosphorylated and several phosphorylated isoforms. Western blot analysis preceded by isoelectric focussing showed that HSP25 predominates in its nonphosphorylated form in the outer medulla but in its phosphorylated form in cortex and inner medulla. Although this intrarenal distribution pattern was not changed during prolonged anaesthesia (thiobutabarbital sodium), a shift from the nonphosphorylated to the phosphorylated isoforms of HSP25 occurred in the medulla. The characteristic intrarenal distribution of the constitutively expressed HSPs (HSP73, HSP60, HSP25) may reflect different states of metabolic activity in the isoosmotic (cortex) and hyperosmotic (medulla) zones of the kidney. The high content of inducible HSP72 in the medulla most likely is a consequence of the osmotic stress imposed upon the cells by the high urea and salt concentrations in the hyperosmotic medullary environment.

Heat shock protein 70 gene polymorphisms in rheumatoid arthritis

A role for heat shock proteins (hsp) in rheumatoid arthritis has been suggested. In addition, the specific binding of human HSP70 protein to QKRAA and RRRAA motifs within the HV3 region of disease-associated DRB1*0401 and DRB1*1001 molecules, respectively, has been proposed as being relevant to rheumatoid arthritis. The purpose of this work was to analyze the influence of HSP70 gene polymorphism on the susceptibility to or severity of rheumatoid arthritis and to investigate the possible contribution of these HSP70 polymorphisms in determining HLA-DRB1*0401/*1001 disease association. The frequencies of the HSP70-1, HSP70-2 and HSP70-hom genotypes were analyzed by PCR-RFLP using BsrBI , Pst I and Nco I enzymes, respectively, in patients with heumatoid arthritis and in healthy controls. No significant differences were observed when HSP70 alleled istribution between the groups under study were compared. Moreover, we did not observe any significant difference in HSP70 allele frequencies between patients positive for HLA-DRB1*0401/*1001 alleles and matched controls. Our data indicate that HSP70 gene polymorphisms do not appear to be relevant in the susceptibility to or severity of rheumatoid arthritis.

The response of heat shock proteins 25 and 72 to ischaemia in different kidney zones

 Induction of heat shock proteins (HSPs) following cell injury contributes to the protection of vital cell functions. It was, therefore, of interest to study the effects of transient renal ischaemia on the abundance and distribution of two HSPs, HSP25 and HSP72, in renal tissue using Western-blot techniques. Analyses were performed on the supernatant (HSP25, HSP72) and pellet (HSP25) of homogenates obtained from cortex (CX) and outer (OM) and inner (IM) medulla of the rat kidney immediately after 60 min of ischaemia followed by varying periods of reperfusion. Ischaemia of the left kidney caused HSP25 contents to decrease in CX, OM and IM by 73, 89 and 54% respectively, compared with the corresponding zones of the contralateral control kidney. This initial decrease in supernatant HSP25 was accompanied by an increased abundance of HSP25 in the pellet. Following reperfusion, HSP25 contents in the supernatant gradually increased in CX and OM, reaching, after 24 h, values that were 5.4- and 2.5-fold higher, respectively, than those in the control kidneys. After 7 or 14 days of reperfusion, HSP25 contents had not completely normalised in CX, but had reached control levels in OM. In IM, the HSP25 content remained below control throughout the entire reperfusion period. HSP72 (supernatant) was below the detection limit in the CX of the control kidney. Similar to the level of HSP25, that of HSP72 was also markedly lower in OM and IM immediately after ischaemia. The intrarenal distribution of HSP72 and the sequence of zonal changes in HSP72 contents were similar to those observed for HSP25. These results are compatible with the view that, during ischaemia and the initial reperfusion period, HSP25 migrates from the cytoplasmic compartment (supernatant) into the nucleus and/or associates with cytoskeletal structures. The observation that both HSP25 and HSP72 are transiently induced in CX and OM, but not in IM, may be explained by the fact that, while all kidney cells are exposed to ischaemic stress, only inner medullary cells experience a major postischaemic attenuation of osmotic stress.
