Programmed death of Jurkat tumor cells was studied under conditions of culturing with 17-AAG selective inhibitor of heat shock protein with a molecular weight of 90 kDa and etoposide. Apoptosis realization was evaluated by fluorescent microscopy with FITC-labeled annexin V and propidium iodide. Activity of caspase-3 was evaluated spectrophotometrically. Inhibition of heat shock protein with a molecular weight of 90 kDa activated the apoptotic program in Jurkat tumor cells and etoposide-induced apoptosis. The heat shock protein with a molecular weight of 90 kDa acted as apoptosis inhibitor in tumor cells.

In response to extra- and intracellular stimuli that constantly challenge and disturb the proteome, cells rapidly change their proteolytic capacity to maintain proteostasis. Failure of such efforts often becomes a major cause of diseases or is associated with exacerbation. Increase in protein breakdown occurs at multiple steps in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, and the regulation of ubiquitination has been extensively studied.

Integrating genomic, hyperspectral imaging (HSI), and environmental data enhances wheat yield predictions, with HSI providing detailed spectral insights for predicting complex grain yield (GY) traits. Incorporating HSI data with single nucleotide polymorphic markers (SNPs) resulted in a substantial improvement in predictive ability compared to the conventional genomic prediction models. Over the course of several years, the prediction ability varied due to diverse weather conditions.

Purpose: The incidence of breast cancer has been increasing in recent years, and monotherapy approaches are not sufficient alone in the treatment of breast cancer. In the combined therapy approach, combining two or three different agents in lower doses can mitigate the side effects on living cells and tissues caused by high doses of chemical agents used alone. ABT-263 (navitoclax), a clinically tested Bcl-2 family protein inhibitor, has shown limited success in clinical trials due to the development of resistance to monotherapy in breast cancer cells.

The 90 kDa Heat shock protein (Hsp90) is a family of ubiquitously expressed molecular chaperones responsible for the stabilization and maturation of >400 client proteins. Hsp90 exhibits dramatic conformational changes to accomplish this, which are regulated by partner proteins termed co-chaperones. One of these co-chaperones is called the activator or Hsp90 ATPase activity homolog 1 (Aha1) and is the most potent accelerator of Hsp90 ATPase activity.

The stress response following burns may be a crucial factor in keloid formation, yet the underlying pathological mechanisms remain to be elucidated. This study initially investigated how heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) and heat shock proteins (HSPs) within the heat shock pathway influence keloid fibrosis, providing insights into the role of the heat shock response in keloid development. This study aims to further elucidate the role of the heat shock pathway in keloid fibrosis and investigate the specific function of HSF1 within this pathway.
