Background: This study was performed to evaluate the protective effect of Saururus chinensis ethanol extract (SCE) against styrene toxicity in mouse spermatocyte cells [GC-2spd (ts) cell line]. Methods and Results: Cytotoxicity in mouse spermatocyte cells was measured using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was determined using 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) assay. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and western blotting were performed to quantify the mRNA and protein expression levels, resepectiviely, of stress or apoptosis-related genes including p21, p53, heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), Bax, Bcl-2, and caspase-3. The results of the MTT assay showed that $50 {\mu}g/m{\ell}$ SCE did not affect cell viability. ROS generation in mouse spermatocyte cells increased by treatment with $100{\mu}M$ styrene, and decreased by co-treatment with SCE. SCE repressed the mRNA expression of stress-related genes, which increased by styrene treatment. In addition, SCE inhibited the apoptosis of mouse spermatocyte cells by ameliorating mRNA and protein levels of apoptotic genes that were altered by styrene treatment. Conclusions: These results suggest that SCE may alleviate styrene toxicity in mouse spermatocyte cells by reducing ROS stress and regulating genes related to styrene toxicity.

Several stresses are known to induce synthesis of heat shock protein The present study was performed to see whether pulmonary ischemia, induced by the bronchial artery occlusion, produced HSP70 in cat lung. To This aim, we compared experimental and control groups of cats with respect to the HSP70 production in the lung. Experimental animals were subjected to 10-min bronchial artery occlusion followed by reperfusion. The interval between the end of the occlusion and the end of the reperfusion was 1 hour, 4 hours and 8 hours, whereas control animal was not subjected 10 any manipulation except anesthesia. According to the interval differences, experimental animals were divided into 1HR, 4HRs and 8HRs groups. To determine The induction of HSP70 in each group, total proteins of lung tissues were extracted and separated by PAGE electrophoresis. Immunoblotting with a mouse monoclonal anti -HSP70 IgG antibody revealed that HSP70 was not detected in the pulmonary tissues resected from control, 1HR or 4HRs groups. In contrast. HSP70 expression in 8HRs group was marked. These results suggest that pulmonary ischemia by the bronchial artery occlusion produces HSP70 in a delayed manner.

The reduction of milk yield caused by heat stress in summer is the main condition restricting the economic benefits of dairy farms. To examine the impact of hyperthermia on bovine mammary epithelial (MAC-T) cells, we incubated the MAC-T cells at thermal-neutral (37℃, CON group) and hyperthermic (42℃, HS group) temperatures for 6 h. Subsequently, the cell viability and apoptotic rate of MAC-T cells, apoptosis-related genes expression, casein and amino acid transporter genes, and the expression of the apoptosis-related proteins were examined. Compared with the CON group, hyperthermia significantly decreased the cell viability (p < 0.05) and elevated the apoptotic rate (p < 0.05) of MAC-T cells. Moreover, the expression of heat shock protein (HSP)70, HSP90B1, Bcl-2-associated X protein (BAX), Caspase-9, and Caspase-3 genes was upregulated (p < 0.05). The expression of HSP70 and BAX (pro-apoptotic) proteins was upregulated (p < 0.05) while that of B-cell lymphoma (BCL)2 (antiapoptotic) protein was downregulated (p < 0.05) by hyperthermia. Decreased mRNA expression of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway-related genes, amino acid transporter genes (SLC7A5, SLC38A3, SLC38A2, and SLC38A9), and casein genes (CSNS1, CSN2, and CSN3) was found in the heat stress (HS) group (p < 0.05) in contrast with the CON group. These findings illustrated that hyperthermia promoted cell apoptosis and reduced the transport of amino acids into cells, which inhibited the milk proteins synthesis in MAC-T cells.

This study investigated a HSP70 expression of Puerariae Radix in cerebral ischemia. The global cerebral ischemia was induced by bilateral common carotid arteries occlusion under hypotension (40 mmHg) in Sprague-Dawley rats. After the treatment of Puerariae Radix extract, the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) expressions were measured immunohistochemically. The upregulation of HSP70 expression in hippocampal regions resulted by cerebral ischemia. Then Puerariae Radix treatment demonstrated significant decrease of HSP70 expressions in CA1 region and dentate gyrus of the hippocampus as compared with control group. These results suggested that Puerariae Radix reveals the neuroprotective effect through the control of noxious stress stimulations to neurons.

본 실험에서는 반SP와 thermotolerance 사이에 어떠한 상관관계가 있는지를 알아보기 위하여, 생쥐 SCK 종양세포에서 heat(45$^{\circ}$, 46$^{\circ}C$)처리가 단백질 합성과 세포의 생존에 미치는 영향을 비교하여 보았다. 그 결과 heat 처리를 받은 세포는 HS$\ulcorner$(70K, 87K)를 측이하게 많이 합성했으며, 다음 heat를 받았을 때는 높은 생존율을 꼬였다. 그리고 이러한 thermotolerance가 생성되고 감퇴되는 kinetics는 HSP가 합성되고 감퇴되는 kinetics와 연관성을 보여 주었다. 이러한 결과로 HSP는 heat shock로부터 세포를 보호하는 데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다고 생 각된다. 아울러, glycerol을 처리하여 HSP의 합성을 봉쇄시켰을 경우에도 열에 대해 저항성을 갖게 되는 실험결과로 미루어, 세포가 갖게 되는 heat resistance에는 (1) HSP의 합성을 초래하지 않는 요인에 의해 유도되는 heatprotection과 (2) 열처리 등의 결과 합성되는 반SP에 의해 유도되는 thermotolerance의 두가지 경우가 있을 것으로 추론할 수 있었다.

Heat shock protein 70 kDa (hsp70), a molecular chaperone involved in folding of nascent proteins, has been studied for its ability to activate innate and specific immunity. High purity hsp70 preparation is generally required for immunization experiments, because endotoxins and other immunologically active contaminants may affect immune responses independently of hsp70. We have developed a novel modification of E. coli-expression medium that enabled a simple two-step production and purification method for endotoxin-free recombinant hsp70. During Ni-NTA-based affinity purification of hsp70, a contaminating protein from host E. coli cells, L-glutamine-n-fructose-6-phosphate aminotransferase (GFAT), was identified. By testing various compounds, supplementation of growth medium with a GFAT metabolite,N-acetylglucosamine, was found to reduce GFAT expression and increase the total hsp70 yield five times. The new protocol is based on column purification of His-tagged hsp70 protein produced by E. coli with the modified medium, followed by endotoxin removal by Triton X-114 extraction. This approach yielded hsp70 with high purity and minimal endotoxin contamination, making the final product acceptable for immunization experiments. In summary, a simple modification of growth medium allowed production of recombinant mouse hsp70 in high yield and purity, thus compatible with immunological studies. This protocol may be useful for production of other Histagged proteins expressed in E. coli.

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are specifically induced by various forms of stress. Hsp70.1, a member of the hsp70 family is known to play an important role in cytoprotection from stressful insults. However, the functional role of Hsp70 in motor function after spinal cord injury (SCI) is still unclear. To study the role of hsp70.1 in motor recovery following SCI, we assessed locomotor function in hsp70.1 knockout (KO) mice and their wild-type (WT) mice via the Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan (BBB) locomotor rating scale, before and after spinal hemisection at T13 level. We also examined lesion size in the spinal cord using Luxol fast blue/cresyl violet staining. One day after injury, KO and WT mice showed no significant difference in the motor function due to complete paralysis following spinal hemisection. However, when it compared to WT mice, KO mice had significantly delayed and decreased functional outcomes from 4 days up to 21 days after SCI. KO mice also showed significantly greater lesion size in the spinal cord than WT mice showed at 21 days after spinal hemisection. These results suggest that Hsp70 has a protective effect against traumatic SCI and the manipulation of the hsp70.1 gene may help improve the recovery of motor function, thereby enhancing neuroprotection after SCI.

The purpose of the study was for investigating the effect of therapeutic ultrasound irradiation on HSP70 expression in knee of degraded rat articular cartilage. Knee of ten Sprague-Dawley male rats were immobilized for 4 weeks and divided at random into the control and continuous ultrasound applicated group. The continuous ultrasound applicated group was irradiated with frequency 1MHz, intensity $1W/cm^2$ for 5 minutes. The control group was sham sonication. The immunoreactivity of HSP70 was increased in degraded articular cartilage after untrasound irradiation. These results suggest that therapeutic ultrasound can enhance HSP70 expression in degraded articular cartilage.
