Heat shock factor 5 is essential for spermatogenesis in mice: Detected by a new monoclonal antibody
Objective(s): Here, we examined the function of our produced monoclonal antibody (mAb10C3) to recognize one of the most important members of the HEAT shock factor family, Hsf5, in embryonic development and in spermatogenic cells of adult mouse testis.Materials and Methods: The targeting effects of mAb10C3 were investigated by immunohisto...
متن کاملHuman heat shock factor 1 is predominantly a nuclear protein before and after heat stress.
The induction of the heat shock genes in eukaryotes by heat and other forms of stress is mediated by a transcription factor known as heat shock factor 1 (HSF1). HSF1 is present in unstressed metazoan cells as a monomer with low affinity for DNA, and upon exposure to stress it is converted to an 'active' homotrimer that binds the promoters of heat shock genes with high affinity and induces their...
متن کاملProtein Kinase A Binds and Activates Heat Shock Factor 1
BACKGROUND Many inducible transcription factors are regulated through batteries of posttranslational modifications that couple their activity to inducing stimuli. We have studied such regulation of Heat Shock Factor 1 (HSF1), a key protein in control of the heat shock response, and a participant in carcinogenisis, neurological health and aging. As the mechanisms involved in the intracellular re...
متن کاملHeat shock factor-1 protein in heat shock factor-1 gene-transfected human epidermoid A431 cells requires phosphorylation before inducing heat shock protein-70 production.
Heat shock factor-1 (HSF1) is a transcriptional factor that binds to heat shock elements located on the promoter region of heat shock protein genes. The purpose of this study was to further investigate the regulation of the expression of the heat shock protein-70 (HSP-70) gene. The HSF1 gene was inserted into pCDNA3 plasmid and then transfected into human epidermoid A431 cells using the CaOP3 m...
متن کاملHeat-shock factor-1, steroid hormones, and regulation of heat-shock protein expression in the heart.
Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are an important family of endogenous, protective proteins. Overexpression of HSPs is protective against cardiac injury. Previously, we observed that dexamethasone activated heat-shock factor-1 (HSF-1) and induced a 60% increase in HSP72 in adult cardiac myocytes. The mechanism responsible for this effect of dexamethasone is unknown. Because HSP90 is known to bind the...
