Objective: To investigate the expression of the Hsp27 and Hsp70 in A549 cells treated with heat and BPDE.
Methods: A549 cells cultured in vitro were divided into heat stress group and BPDE group. Cells cultured at 37 degrees C used as control. The heat stress group was exposed to heat at different temperature (39 degrees C, 42 degrees C and 43 degrees C) for 2h. The BPDE group was treated with different concentrations of BPDE (0, 2, 4 and 8 micromol/L). Western-blot was used for the Hsp27 and Hsp70 expression analysis.
Results: In heat stress group, Hsp27 expression levels significantly increased compared to the control (P < 0.05) and reached its peak at 39 degrees C. Hsp70 expression level also increased after heat stress. It reached the peak at 42 degrees C and was higher than that of the control with significance (P < 0.05). In BPDE group, Hsp27 and Hsp70 expression levels were higher than those of the control. Hsp27 reached a maximum at 8 micromol/L, the highest concentration of BPDE in this experiment, and was significantly higher than that of the control (P < 0.05). But it was still on its elevatory phase. Hsp70 reached its peak at 4 micromol/L and was significantly higher than that of the control at 4 micromol/L and 8 micromol/L.
Conclusion: Both heat and BPDE can induce the expressions of Hsp27 and Hsp70. In heat stress group, the Hsp27 and Hsp70 levels reached their peaks at 39 degrees C and 42 degrees C. In BPDE group, the expressional levels of Hsp27 and Hsp70 reached their peaks at 8 micromol/L and 4 micromol/L.

As many proteins prioritize functionality over constancy of structure, a proteome is the shortest stave in the Liebig's barrel of cell sustainability. In this regard, both prokaryotes and eukaryotes possess abundant machinery supporting the quality of the proteome in healthy and stressful conditions. This machinery, namely chaperones, assists in folding, refolding, and the utilization of client proteins.

Heat stress impacts male reproduction in animal husbandry. Carnosic acid (CA), a potent antioxidant, mitigates oxidative stress and apoptosis. αB-crystallin, a small heat shock protein, regulates apoptosis and oxidative stress.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the accumulation of misfolded α-synuclein (α-syn). Promoting the degradation of misfolded proteins has been shown to be an effective approach to alleviate PD. This review highlights the roles of specific heat shock proteins (HSPs) in modulating α-syn aggregation and neuronal survival.

Brain injury develops from a complex series of pathophysiological phases, resulting in acute necrotic or delayed apoptotic cell death after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Inhibition of apoptotic cell death is critical for the treatment of acute neurodegenerative disorders, such as TBI. Here, we investigated the role of phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) in the development of neuronal injury, particularly in apoptotic cell death.
