Abstract:
... Recent studies have highlighted that the proteome can be used to identify potential biomarker candidates for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in diverse cohorts. Furthermore, the racial and ethnic background of participants is an important factor to consider to ensure the effectiveness of potential biomarkers for representative populations. A promising approach to survey potential biomarker candidates for ...

Abstract:
... Collagen, the most abundant extra-cellular matrix in oviducts and uteri, performs critical roles in pregnancies. We hypothesised that the locations and amounts of both denatured collagen and the collagen-specific molecular chaperone 47-kDa heat shock protein (HSP47) in the oviducts and uteri of old cows are different compared with those of young heifers because of repeated pregnancies. Since detec ...

Abstract:
... Metastasis has been widely recognized as the most lethal threats for cancer patients. Due to their special genetic and environmental context, cancer stem cells (CSCs) which are resistant to most cytotoxic drugs and radiation, are considered as the dominant culprit for metastasis. Thus, the efficient targeting and thorough elimination of CSCs are significantly urgent for the enhancement of therapeu ...

Abstract:
... Most marine mollusks exhibit osmoregulatory mechanisms to cope with hypo- or hyperosmotic stress. In the present study, we elucidated the effects of exposure to hyposmotic and hyperosmotic stress on bay scallop Argopecten irradians. The Na⁺, K⁺, and Cl⁻ ions of bay scallop hemolymph traversed in a similar direction as that of surrounding salinity. Moreover, the gill Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase was affected by c ...

Abstract:
... Mycobacterium leprae, the causative organism of leprosy, harbors many antigenic proteins, and one such protein is the 18‐kDa antigen. This protein belongs to the small heat shock protein family and is commonly known as HSP18. Its chaperone function plays an important role in the growth and survival of M. leprae inside infected hosts. HSP18/18‐kDa antigen is often used as a diagnostic marker for de ...

Abstract:
... Climate change has consequences over marine organisms and their behavior. Echinoderms have been found to be negatively affected on righting time, survival, feeding rate or growth by high temperatures, low salinity or their interaction. We analyzed the effects of temperature and salinity fluctuation under a climate change scenario on feeding rate, righting time and heat shock proteins (Hsp70) expre ...

Abstract:
... Small heat shock proteins (SHSPs) are conserved proteins that participate in many cellular functions like preventing protein aggregation and stress response. However, their role in responding to nanoparticles (NPs) has not yet been explained. We used a chicken embryo model to investigate the effects of two different forms of iron oxide-NPs (IONPs) on the mRNA expression of HSPB1, HSPB5, HSPB8, and ...

Abstract:
... Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) are ATP-independent chaperones that help correct the folding of denatured proteins and protect cells from stress. Mutations in HSPB1, HSPB8, and HSPB3 are implicated in inherited peripheral neuropathies (IPNs), such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2 (CMT2) and distal hereditary motor neuropathies (dHMN). This study, using whole exome sequencing or targeted gen ...
... Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have induced severe damage worldwide. A novel high-efficient antialgal natural chemical, 3-indoleacrylic acid (3-IDC) with a 5-day half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀, ₅d), was discovered from canola straw, and its algal inhibition mechanism was investigated. Adverse effects were observed on the growth of P. donghaiense with 3-IDC addition, following an increase ...

Abstract:
... Small heat shock protein (sHSP) is a superfamily of molecular chaperone and is found from archaea to human. Recent researches have demonstrated that sHSPs participate in a series of biological processes and are even closely associated with serious diseases. Since sHSP is a very large superfamily and members from different superfamilies exhibit distinct functions, accurate classification of the sub ...

Abstract:
... ‘Huabai 1’ is a new albino tea germplasm, with high amino acids in its albinism period, however, the albino mechanism remains unknown. To understand the albinism mechanism of ‘Huabai 1’, molecular-level studies were carried out to reveal the functions of CsLHCII and CsSGR in albinism. In this study, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations revealed that albino leaves of ‘Huabai 1’ are m ...

Abstract:
... Breast cancer susceptibility gene 2 (BRCA2) mediates genome maintenance during the S phase of the cell cycle, with important roles in replication stress, centrosome replication, and cytokinesis. In this study, we showed that a small heat shock protein, HSP27, interacted with and participated in the degradation of BRCA2 in estrogen-treated MCF-7 cells. BRCA2 degradation reportedly requires ubiquiti ...

Abstract:
... Photothermal therapy is a promising phototherapeutic modality that has been widely studied in cancer therapy. However, because of the influence of heat shock protein (HSP), the therapeutic efficacy of photothermal therapy (PTT) is significantly suppressed. To improve the therapeutic efficacy, different tumor-specific therapeutic modalities have been chosen to combine with PTT. However, most of the ...
