The heat shock response is a universal stress response observed in all organisms and cultured cells. The response is regulated at both the transcriptional and translational level. Heat shocked Drosophila melanogaster Kc cells are used as the system for the study of translational regulation. In this system non-heat shock messages are associated with polysome but are not translated in a heat shocked condition. To figure out the change in the translation machinery. the effects of translation elongation inhibitors were tested on Kc cells. The result showed that the sensitivity of translation to these drugs changed in heat shocked cells. The significant changes were the decreased inhibition of heat shock protein synthesis by cycloheximide, emetine. and puromycin. and the increased inhibition of heat shock protein synthesis by verrucarin A. implying that the translation elongation mechanism in heat shocked cells changed.

In order to express the CDC70 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae by heat shock, we have designed heat inducibe hybrid promoters using the Drosophila melanogaster heat shock elements (HSEs). A 220 bp-long upstream fragment of the D. melanogaster hsp70 gene comprised of four HSEs was placed upstream of the putative proximal TATA box of the CDC70 gene. Hybrid promoters containing different fusion joints were tested for their ability to drive the CDC70 gene expression by heat shock. The results showed that the HSEs of D. melanogaster conferred the heat-induced CDC70 gene expression, but the heat inducibility was much lower than that in D. melanogaster.

Changes in the activities of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and changes in free amino acids in the cytoplasm of Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been studied under heat shock condition. Heat shock conditions led to a significant decrease of NAD-IDH and NAD-GDH, It was shown appeared that the meaningful patterns of increase of NADP-IDH and NADP-GDH. It suggested that heat shock in yeast leads to a splitting of the TCA cycle and that glutamate synthesis takes place through the coupling of the NADP-linked isocirate and glutamate dehydrogenase. It was shown that about 14% of total free amino acids of yeast cells was decreased by heat shock. Especially heat shock condition resulted in the marked decreases of serine family amino acids such as serine, glycine and cysteine, and in the considerable increases of the rates of methionine, alanine, glutamin.

Heat shock proteins (HSPs)은 다양한 생리학적인 또는 환경적 스트레스에 응답하여 유도된다. 그러나 HSPs의 전사 활성은 heat shock factors (HSFs)에 의해 조절 된다. 현재 연구에서는 붕어와 마우스의 간세포 배양에서 열 스트레스에 의한 heat shock factor 1 (HSF1)의 패턴 차이와 heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)의 발현을 면역분석법을 이용하여 조사하였다. 붕어의 간세포는 $33^{\circ}C$에서 trimer를 이루지만 마우스의 간세포는 $42^{\circ}C$에서 trimer를 이루었다. 이 연구는 붕어와 마우스의 HSF1은 열 스트레스로부터 다른 온도에서 반응을 한다는 것을 보여준다. 또한 재조합 단백질을 이용하여 붕어와 인간의 HSF1의 온도에 따른 활성 조건을 CD spectroscopy와 면역분석을 이용하여 조사하였다. 이러한 결과들은 인간과 마우스 HSF1과 붕어의 HSF1은 온도에 의한 활성 변화를 보이지만 그들의 최적 활성 온도는 다르다는 것을 알 수 있다.

HSP70 has widely been induced in in vivo hyperthermia conditions in various organisms to study gene regulation and recently neuroprotectve roles of the induced gene expression under varying conditions. We investigated different responses among various tissues in zebrafish under heat shock to evaluate whether spatial and temporal expression pattern of zebrafish (z) hsp70 in transcriptional and translational level under heat shock stress in different brain regions. Heat shock groups were given for 1 h at $37^{\circ}C$ after recovery by transferring the treated animals back to $28^{\circ}C$ for 1, 2 and 24 h for recovery, respectively. Control (CTRL) group was kept at $28^{\circ}C$. At the end of treatments, five animals were collected and used for isolation of total RNAs and peptides from the corresponding tissues. Expression of zhsp70 mRNA showed different patterns in recovery periods in the tissues including the brain, eye, intestines, muscles, heart and testis by RT-PCR. Unlike the RT-PCR analysis, Northern blot analysis demonstrated nearly 30-fold increase in zhsp70 at 1 h heat shock, suggesting that RT-PCR may not be appropriate in unmasking regulation of the time-dependent zhsp70 expression. In the experiment involving different brain regions, the cerebellum showed gradual activation at 1 h to R1h and decreases in R2h and R24h, while the medulla oblongata and optic tectum showed gradual increase at R1h and decrease at R24h, indicating that different brain tissues respond specifically to heat shock in inducing zhsp70 and recovering from the heat shock status. Western blot analysis also demonstrated that the intracellular levels of zHSP70 in three different brain regions including the cerebellum, medulla oblongata and optic tectum are differently induced and recovered to normal state. These results clearly demonstrate that different regions of the body and the brain tissues are responding differently to heat shock in the aspects of its level of expression and speed of recovery.

본 연구는 체외에서 한우 난포란의 성숙과 수정후 배의 체외발생에 있어서 온도충격의 영향이 처리온도 및 처리시간에 미치는 효과를 검토하였다. 1. 체외에서 생산된 4~8 세포기 배의 배반포로의 배발달율에 있어서 온도충격의 적정온도는 41$^{\circ}C$, 처리시간은 30초였다. 2. 체외성숙 후의 온도충격이 체외성숙 전의 온도충격보다 수정란의 분할율을 유의하게 상승시켰다(p<0.05). 3. 체외성숙 후와 배양 5일째 배에 각각 온도처리를 하였을 경우 비처리군보다 배반포의 배발달율이 향상되었다.

Probiotics로서의 활성이 높은 Lactobacillus acidophilus 30SC의 생존성을 증진시키기 위한 기초 자료를 얻고자, heat shock stress를 가한 후 생균수를 측정하고, 생존율의 변화를 통해 고온 처리에 의한 고온 및 냉동 내성의 증진 효과를 평가하였다. 또한 열처리 동안 새로이 발현되는 단백질을 1차원 및 2차원 전기영동을 이용하여 확인하였으며, 주사전자현미경을 사용하여 세포 모양을 관찰하였다. L. acidophilus 30SC는 $55^{\circ}C$의 heat shock stress를 받았을 때 생존 균수가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 나머지 처리구는 $37^{\circ}C$에서 계속 배양한 것과 별다른 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 특히 $45^{\circ}C$로 heat shock stress를 준 경우 $37^{\circ}C$에서 배양한 것과 거의 동일하였다. L. acidophilus 30SC에 $45^{\circ}C$로 heat shock stress를 가한 뒤 추가로 55 및 $60^{\circ}C$에 노출시켰을 때 가장 높은 생존율을 나타냈고, 치사 수준인 $55^{\circ}C$의 heat shock stress를 받은 후 $55^{\circ}C$ 및 $60^{\circ}C$에 노출되었을 때 생존율이 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보였다. L. acidophilus 30SC에 $55^{\circ}C$로 15분 Heat shock stress를 준 경우 약 22와 25 kDa의 단백질들이 새로이 발현된 것으로 나타났으나, 24와 27 kDa로 추정되는 단백질의 발현 정도는 낮았음을 확인하였다. 2차원 전기영동을 실시한 결과, $37^{\circ}C$에서 배양한 대조구와 비교할 때 $55^{\circ}C$로 heat shock stress를 준 경우 새로이 5개의 protein spot을 발견할 수 있었다. 주사전자현미경으로 세포의 형태를 관찰한 결과 heat shock stress를 준 경우에는 세포의 길이가 신장되는 경향을 나타내었다.

Heat shock ($43^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes) is sufficient to induce apoptosis in a wide number of cell lines. In this study, we asked whether DNA strand breaks are responsible for this phenomenon. Using the highly sensitive comet assay for DNA damage detection, we were unable to demonstrate DNA breaks immediately after heat shock in Raji human Iymphoid cells. It showed that DNA breaks were not necessary for hyperthermic apoptosis, since its activity is indicative of DNA lesions. Here, we present a suggestion that a protein(s) is the major target for heat shock apoptosis. We firstly found glycerol, which reportedly stabilizes protein structure, showed a protective effect in Raji cells against hyperthermic apoptosis. In addition, quercetin, which modulates transcription of the heat shock protein family members, enhanced apoptotic death induced by hyperthermia. Furthermore, Raji cells are protected by a pre-mild heat treatment prior to the killing dose of heat shock.

Heat shock RNA 1 (HSR1) is described as a "eukaryotic heat-sensing noncoding RNA" that regulates heat shock response in human and other eukaryotic cells. Highly conserved HSR1 sequences have been identified from humans, hamsters, Drosophila, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Arabidopsis. In a previous study, however, it was suggested that HSR1 had originated from a bacterial genome. HSR1 showed no detectible nucleotide sequence similarity to any eukaryotic sequences but harbored a protein coding region that showed amino-acid sequence similarity to bacterial voltage-gated chloride channel proteins. The bacterial origin of HSR1 was not convincible because the nucleotide sequence similarity was marginal. In this study, we have found that a genomic contig sequence of Comamonas testosteroni strain JL14 contained a sequence virtually identical to that of HSR1, decisively confirming the bacterial origin of HSR1. Thus, HSR1 is an exogenous RNA, which can ectopically trigger heat shock response in eukaryotes. Therefore, it is no longer appropriate to cite HSR1 as a "eukaryotic functional noncoding RNA."
