Hsp70 chaperones play a role in polyoma- and papillomavirus assembly, as evidenced by their interaction in vivo with polyomavirus capsid proteins at late times after virus infection and by their ability to assemble viral capsomeres into capsids in vitro. We studied whether Hsp70 chaperones might also participate in the uncoating reaction. In vivo, Hsp70 co-immunoprecipitated with polyomavirus virion VP1 at 3 h after infection of mouse cells. In vitro, prokaryotic and eukaryotic Hsp70 chaperones efficiently disassembled polyoma- and papillomavirus-like particles and virions in energy-dependent reactions. These observations support a role for cell chaperones in the disassembly of these viruses.

Background: The sustained activation of androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) is a key factor in the resistance of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) to second-generation anti-androgens such as enzalutamide (ENZ). The AR/AR-V7 protein is regulated by the E3 ubiquitin ligase STUB1 and a complex involving HSP70, but the precise mechanism remains unclear.

Methods: High-throughput RNA sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) in ENZ-resistant and control CRPC cells.

Background: Heat shock proteins have been implicated in the process of carcinogenesis. HSPA14, a member of the heat shock protein family, remains poorly understood in terms of its significance and pathomechanisms in breast cancer.

Methods: We analyzed the expression levels of HSPA14 and its prognostic significance in breast cancer using TCGA data.

GRP78 as a potential therapeutic target in cancer treatment: an updated review of its role in chemoradiotherapy resistance of cancer cells.

Med Oncol

Department of Oncology and Institute of Medical Sciences, National Clinical Research Center for Geriatric Disorders, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, 410013, China.

GRP78 (Glucose-related protein 78, BiP/HSPA5) is commonly overexpressed in cancer cells. Acting as an activator of endoplasmic reticulum stress, GRP78 is involved in the resistance of cancer cells to injury. Current evidence suggests that GRP78 plays a significant role in the radiotherapy resistance and chemotherapy resistance of cancers, which is accomplished through a variety of complex pathways.

Extracellular HSP70 facilitated β-glucan induced trained immunity in macrophages to suppress sepsis via TLR2-NF-κB axis.

Department of Clinical Laboratory, The Second Children & Women's Healthcare of Jinan City, Jinan, Shandong, China. Electronic address:

Sepsis is a common systemic infectious disease followed by extremely high incidence and mortality with no effective treatment and clinical drugs. As a key mediator involved in infection and immunity, it has been reported that sepsis patients are accompanied by increased heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). Trained immunity is a novel innate immunity approach that can be activated by β-glucan to fight against sepsis.

Protective Effect of Rosmarinic Acid on Endotoxin-Induced Neuronal Damage Through Modulating GRP78/PERK/MANF Pathway.

Drug Des Devel Ther

January 2025

Department of Pharmacology, West China School of Basic Medical Sciences & Forensic Medicine, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, 610041, People's Republic of China.

Objective: Neuronal damage is criminal to cognitive dysfunction, closely related to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). However, due to the pathogenesis of endotoxin-induced long-term cognitive dysfunction is not fully clarified, there is still a lack of effective treatment. This study was conducted to explore the protective effects and mechanism of rosmarinic acid (RA) against ERS in endotoxin-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice and neuronal injury in cells.
