objective(s) rapidly growing mycobacteria (rgm) are capable of producing diseases in humans. since mycobacteria vary in their susceptibility, precise identification is critical for adoption of correct drug therapy. the main aim of this study was molecular identification and evaluation of antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of iranian clinically isolated myocbacterium fortuitum. materials and m...
The gene encoding a highly immunogenic mycobacterial heat-shock protein (hsp65) was transfected into the murine macrophage tumor cell line J774. The resulting hsp65-expressing cells (J774-hsp65) were no longer able to produce tumors in syngeneic mice. This loss of tumorigenicity was not mediated through T cells since the transfected cells did not produce tumors in athymic mice. If mice are firs...
Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is associated with antibodies to a heat shock puff on drosophila chromosomes. This observation was investigated by immunoblotting using extracts of the Schneider insect cell line and HeLa cells, before and after heat shock. An insect protein of 63 kilodaltons (but no equivalent human protein) was recognised by 21 (46%) of 46 serum samples from patients with AS, one o...
Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is caused by autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas. The results described here indicate that a beta-cell target antigen in non-obese diabetic (NOD/Lt) mice is a molecule cross-reactive with the 65-kDa heat shock protein (hsp65) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The onset of beta-cell destruction is associated with the spontan...
OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to explore the efficacy of oral tolerance with heat shock protein (HSP) 65 in two apparently non-overlapping models of murine atherosclerosis. BACKGROUND Atherosclerosis is considered to be a chronic inflammatory process. Autoimmune mechanisms have been shown to influence atherogenesis in experimental animal models. Heat shock protein 65 is a candidate ant...
Adjuvant arthritis (AA) is an autoimmune disease inducible in rats involving T cell reactivity to the mycobacterial 65-kDa heat shock protein (HSP65). HSP65-specific T cells cross-reactive with the mammalian 60-kDa heat shock protein (HSP60) are thought to participate in the modulation of AA. In this work we studied the effects on AA of DNA vaccination using constructs coding for HSP65 (pHSP65)...
We have described previously the prophylactic and therapeutic effect of a DNA vaccine encoding the Mycobacterium leprae 65 kDa heat shock protein (DNA-HSP65) in experimental murine tuberculosis. However, the high homology of this protein to the corresponding mammalian 60 kDa heat shock protein (Hsp60), together with the CpG motifs in the plasmid vector, could trigger or exacerbate the developme...
Heat shock proteins (HSP) have been shown to enhance antigen processing and presentation through their association with antigenic peptides and delivery of these moieties into major histocompatibility complex class I pathways. In this study, mycobacterial Hsp65 is demonstrated to have the ability to help cross-present an exogenous protein by dendritic cells (DC) to CD8 T cells without the need f...
The 65-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp65) is supposed to play a role in host defense against infections with various microbial pathogens and in autoimmune inflammatory disorders. These effects are thought to result mainly from an Hsp65-specific T-lymphocyte-mediated immune response that recognizes conserved epitopes. The aim of the present study was to assess whether mycobacterial Hsp65 has a direc...
A phylogenetic analysis of chaperonin (heat shock protein 60) sequences from prokaryotes and eukaryotes indicated that a single gene duplication event in the common ancestor of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. leprae, and Streptomyces albus gave rise to the duplicate chaperonin genes found in these species (designated HSP65 and GroEL in the mycobacterial species). Comparison of rates of synonymou...
