Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the molecular etiology of Waardenburg syndrome type II (WS2) in a family from Yunnan province, China. METHODS A total of 406 genes related to hereditary hearing loss were sequenced using next-generation sequencing. DNA samples were isolated from the peripheral blood DNA of probands. Those pathogenic mutations detected by next-generation sequencing in probands and their parents were validated by Sanger sequencing. The conservatism of variation sites in genes was also analyzed. The protein expression was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS A heterozygous mutation c.178delG (p.D60fs*49) in the SOX10 gene was identified in the proband, which is a frameshift mutation and may cause protein loss of function and considered to be a pathogenic mutation. This was determined to be a de novo mutation because her family were demonstrated to be wild-type and symptom free. SOX10, FGFR3, SOX2, and PAX3 protein levels were reduced as determined by flow cytometry. CONCLUSION A novel frameshift mutation in SOX10 gene was identified in this study, which may be the cause of WS2 in proband. In addition, FGFR3, SOX2, and PAX3 might also participate in promoting the progression of WS2.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy is an anti-cancer strategy that induce cell death by converting light energy into heat energy. During photothermal therapy, cancer cells were treated with photothermal agents, such as indocyanine green, and irradiated with a laser. Heat stress in cancer cells results in cellular death and inflammatory responses. In the present study, we demonstrated how ex vivo photothermal (PT)-treated cells underwent immunogenic cell death. PT treatment caused significant expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 27, HSP70, and HSP90 in murine tumor cells. To evaluate the immunogenicity of heat-stressed cells, lysate from PT-treated tumor cells or water-based heated cells was pulsed to syngeneic bone-marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) to generate a DC-based vaccine. Administration with PT-treated tumor lysates-pulsed DC vaccine resulted in significant inhibition of tumor growth in BALB/c and C57BL/6 syngeneic tumor-bearing mice. The immunogenicity of PT-treated cancer cells was reduced in the presence of HSP inhibitors, J2, VER-155008 or 17-AAG. Our study elucidates how PT techniques have distinct mechanisms from water-based heating and might be a potentially robust and efficient solution to developing an anti-cancer vaccine.

Abstract
Limited efficacy of rotavirus (RV) vaccines in children in developing countries and in animals remains a significant problem necessitating further search for additional approaches to control RV-associated gastroenteritis. During cell attachment and entry events, RV interacts with cell surface O-glycans including histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs). Besides modulation of the protective immunity against RV, several commensal and probiotic bacteria were shown to express HBGA-like substances suggesting that they may affect RV attachment and entry into the host cells. Moreover, some beneficial bacteria have been shown to possess the ability to bind host HBGAs via sugar specific proteins called lectins. However, limited research has been done to evaluate the effects of HBGA-expressing and/or HBGA-binding bacteria on RV infection. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of selected commensal and probiotic bacteria to bind different RV strains via HBGAs and to block RV infection of IPEC-J2 cells. Our data indicated that Gram-negative probiotic Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (E. coli Nissle 1917) and commensal Gram-positive (Streptococcus bovis and Bifidobacterium adolescentis) and Gram-negative (Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, Clostridium clostridioforme and Escherichia coli G58 (E. coli G58) bacteria of swine origin expressed HBGAs which correlated with their ability to bind group A and C RVs. Additionally, Gram-positive E. coli 1917 and E. coli G58 demonstrated the ability to block RV attachment onto IPEC-J2 cells. Taken together, our results support the hypothesis that physical interactions between RVs and HBGA-expressing beneficial bacteria may limit RV replication.

Cromileptes altivelis microRNA Transcriptome Analysis upon Nervous Necrosis Virus (NNV) Infection and the Effect of cal-miR-155 on Cells Apoptosis and Virus Replication. Viruses 2022; 14:v14102184. [PMID: 36298739 PMCID: PMC9609685 DOI: 10.3390/v14102184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2022] [Revised: 09/23/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) could regulate various biological processes. Nervous necrosis virus (NNV) is one of the primary germs of the Humpback grouper (Cromileptes altivelis), a commercial fish of great importance for Asian aquaculture. However, there is limited available information on the host-virus interactions of C. altivelis. miRNAs have been shown to play key roles in the host response to infection by a variety of pathogens. To better understand the regulatory mechanism of miRNAs, we constructed miRNA transcriptomes and identified immune-related miRNAs of C. altivelis spleen in response to NNV infection. Reads from the three libraries were mapped onto the Danio rerio reference genome. As a result, a total of 942 mature miRNAs were determined, with 266 known miRNAs and 676 novel miRNAs. Among them, thirty-two differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRs) were identified compared to the PBS control. These DEmiRs were targeted on 895 genes, respectively, by using miRanda v3.3a. Then, 14 DEmiRs were validated by qRT-PCR and showed consistency with those obtained from high-throughput sequencing. In order to study the relationship between viral infection and host miRNA, a cell line from C. altivelis brain (CAB) was used to examine the expressions of five known DEmiRs (miR-132-3p, miR-194a, miR-155, miR-203b-5p, and miR-146) during NNV infection. The results showed that one miRNA, cal-miRNA-155, displayed significantly increased expression in response to the virus infection. Subsequently, it was proved that overexpression of cal-miR-155 enhanced cell apoptosis with or without NNV infection and inhibited virus replication in CAB cells. Oppositely, the cal-miRNA-155 inhibitor markedly suppressed apoptosis in CAB cells. The results of the apoptosis-related genes mRNA expression also showed the regulation of cal-miR-155 on the apoptosis process in CAB cells. These findings verify that miR-155 might exert a function as a pro-apoptotic factor in reply to NNV stimulation in CAB cells and help us further study the molecular mechanisms of the pathogenesis of NNV in C. altivelis.

Abstract
Induction of heat shock protein expression and the heat shock (stress) response are seen in exercise. This exercise-induced response is thought protective against cellular stress through the expression of heat shock proteins. The highly inducible heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) has been shown to be expressed in a number of stress-related conditions, but not investigated in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Twenty-one women (10 controls, 11 with PCOS) concluded an 8-week supervised, moderate-intensity exercise programme. Monocytes and lymphocytes were analysed by flow cytometry for HSP72 expression from blood samples prior to, mid-way and at the completion of the programme. The monocyte HSP72 expression showed an increase from baseline values through mid-way (p = 0.025), and at the completion of the programme (p = 0.011) only in the control group, the PCOS group showed no significant change. This pattern was similar for lymphocyte HSP72 expression where a significant increase was found at the completion of the programme (p = 0.01) only in the control group. The magnitude of increased HSP72 expression following completion of the programme was linked to baseline values only in the control group. In conclusion, increased HSP72 expression to exercise over an 8-week period was seen in control but not in PCOS women, suggesting that there is an impairment of HSP72 expression in response to exercise in these women.

Cell Stress Chaperones 2015; 20:473-81.

Abstract
This case-control study aimed to investigate whether the levels of Hsp70 (HSPA1A) and Hsp27 (HSPB1) in plasma and lymphocytes were associated with the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among coal workers. A total of 76 COPD cases and 48 age-matched healthy controls from a group of coal workers were included. The case group consisted of 35 COPD patients whose condition was complicated with coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP) and 41 COPD patients without CWP. Heat shock proteins (Hsps) in plasma and lymphocytes were detected by ELISA and flow cytometry, respectively. Multiple logistic regression models were applied to estimate the association between Hsp levels and COPD risk. Our results showed that plasma Hsp70 and lymphocyte Hsp27 levels were significantly higher and plasma Hsp27 levels were significantly lower in COPD cases than in controls (p < 0.01). No significant differences in lymphocyte Hsp70 levels were found between COPD cases and the matched subjects. Higher plasma Hsp70 levels (odds ratio (OR) = 13.8, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 5.7-33.5) and lower plasma Hsp27 levels (OR = 4.6, 95 % CI = 2.0-10.5) were significantly associated with an increased risk of COPD after adjusting for confounders. Higher lymphocyte Hsp27 levels were only associated with an increased risk of COPD with CWP (OR = 6.6, 95 % CI = 2.0-22.1) but not with an increased risk of COPD without CWP (OR = 3.0, 95 % CI = 0.9-8.9). Additionally, there were strong joint effects of different Hsps on COPD risk. These results showed that higher levels of plasma Hsp70 and lower levels of plasma Hsp27 might be associated with an increased risk of COPD among coal workers. They may have the potential to serve as monitoring markers for COPD in coal workers.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to observe the intracellular heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) and heme oxygenase-1 (HSP32) response to prolonged interval cycling following the ingestion of carbohydrates (CHO) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO(3)). Six recreationally active males (mean ± SD; age 23.2 ± 2.9 years, height 179.5 ± 5.5 cm, body mass 76.5 ± 6.8 kg, and peak power output 315 ± 36 W) volunteered to complete a 90 min interval cycling exercise on four occasions. The trials were completed in a random and blinded manner following ingestion of either: placebo and an artificial sweetener (P-P), NaHCO(3) and sweetener (B-P), placebo and CHO (P-CHO), and NaHCO(3) and CHO (B-CHO). Both HSP72 and HSP32 were significantly increased in monocytes and lymphocytes from 45 min post-exercise (p ≤ 0.039), with strong relationships between both cell types (HSP72, r = 0.83; HSP32, r = 0.89). Exogenous CHO had no influence on either HSP72 or HSP32, but the ingestion of NaHCO(3) significantly attenuated HSP32 in monocytes and lymphocytes (p ≤ 0.042). In conclusion, the intracellular stress protein response to 90 min interval exercise is closely related in monocytes and lymphocytes, and HSP32 appears to be attenuated with a pre-exercise alkalosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72) is a highly inducible stress protein and molecular chaperone. Cancers have been shown to be associated with increased Hsp72 expression within the tumour itself and this may lead to resistance to apoptosis. METHODS Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from patients diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) (n = 27) and chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) (n = 16) and Hsp72 expression was characterized on both the cell surface and intracellularly by flow cytometry. To allow for comparison PBMC from breast cancer patients (n = 25) and healthy volunteers (n = 19) were included. RESULTS Both lymphocytes and monocytes from CLL and CMML patients showed high levels of total Hsp72 expression (4-6 fold increase) in comparison to breast cancer and healthy subjects. The majority of Hsp72 in these tumours was determined to be cell-surface expressed (64-93% of cell total Hsp72). CONCLUSIONS A correlation was observed between lymphocyte and monocyte total Hsp72 expression (p < 0.001) suggesting a common stress response pathway may exist in these blood cells and there are stress conditions present within the circulation. Hsp72 expression was not found to be related to white blood cell count.

Abstract
Carbofuran is a pesticide, which is used throughout the world as a nematicide and an acaricide. This pesticide integrates into living organisms through aquatic ecosystem. In earlier report, we had demonstrated that cytochrome P4501A was induced in cultured catfish hepatocytes in response to carbofuran, which might be responsible for the detoxification of this pesticide. As the underlying signaling mechanism associated with induction and regulation of cytochrome P4501A has not yet been well defined, we therefore in the present study have investigated to identify the regulatory network of cytochrome P4501A in catfish liver or cultured hepatocytes by targeting several key signaling molecules such as phosphatidyl inositol (PI) or protein kinase C (PKC), which are critical molecules for many important pathways. PKC and heat shock protein70 (HSP70) have been shown to be induced in response to carbofuran in catfish hepatocytes. Results also indicate that induction of CYP1A is modulated by HSP70 and PKC in fish hepatocytes. Thus our data shed light on the regulation of EROD activity, which has been used as a bio-monitoring tool for measuring aquatic pollution.

Abstract
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is thought to confer protection to cells via a cellular response to free radicals. This process may involve increased expression of heat shock proteins, in particular the highly inducible heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72). Healthy male volunteers (n = 16) were subjected to HBO for 1 h at 2.8 ATA. Inducible Hsp72 expression was measured by flow cytometry pre-, post- and 4 h-post HBO. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from whole blood via density centrifugation pre-, post- and 4 h post-HBO. PBMC were then subjected to an in vitro heat shock at 40°C or hypoxia at 37°C (5% O(2)) with a control at 37°C. Cells were then analysed for Hsp72 expression by flow cytometry. Monocytes showed no significant changes in Hsp72 expression following HBO. No detectable Hsp72 was seen in lymphocytes or neutrophils. Following in vitro hypoxic exposure, a significant increase in Hsp72 expression was observed in monocytes isolated immediately post- (p = 0.006) and 4 h post-HBO (p = 0.010) in comparison to control values. HBO does not induce Hsp72 expression in PBMC. The reported benefits of HBO in terms of pre-conditioning are not due to inducement of Hsp72 expression in circulating blood cells, but may involve an enhancement of the stress response.

[PMID: 21498114 DOI: 10.1016/j.jsams.2011.03.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2010] [Revised: 02/23/2011] [Accepted: 03/18/2011] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) response following exercise is well documented, however, little is known on whether the expression may be mediated by the ingestion of ergogenic aids prior to performance. The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO(3)) ingestion on monocyte and lymphocyte expressed HSP72 and oxidative stress for 4-h post exercise. Seven active males (22.3 ± 2.9 years, 181.6 ± 4.5 cm, 78.1 ± 8.1 kg) performed a 4-min 'all-out' cycle test following a dose of 0.3 g kg(-1) body mass of NaHCO(3), or an equimolar placebo dose of sodium chloride. HSP72 was measured by flow cytometry and oxidative stress was determined via plasma thiobarbituric acid substances (TBARS) analysis. The NaHCO(3) ingestion significantly increased blood pH (p<0.001), bicarbonate (p<0.001) and base excess (p<0.001) pre-exercise. Despite this there was no evidence of a significantly improved exercise performance when compared with the placebo trials (p ≥ 0.26) (means ± SD; average power 292 ± 43 W vs. 291 ± 50 W; peak power 770 ± 218 W vs. 775 ± 211 W; work completed 71 ± 10 kJ vs. 68 ± 10 kJ). Monocyte expressed HSP72 was significantly lower under experimental conditions during the 4-h post-exercise (p=0.013), as was plasma TBARS (p<0.001). These findings suggest that pre-exercise alkalosis can attenuate the stress response to a single bout of anaerobic exercise.

Abstract
Human exposure to magnetic fields, increased through use of new technologies like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), has prompted investigations into possible effects of static magnetic fields (SMFs) on cellular processes. However, controversy still remains between many studies, which likely results from a lack of uniformity across experimental parameters, including the length of magnetic field exposure, the strength of the magnetic field, and the cell type or organism under investigation. The purpose of this research was to monitor effects of SMF exposure using real-time luminescence photometry. The study investigated the potential interaction of a 100 mT SMF on a heat shock protein (hsp70)/luciferase reporter construct in stably transfected NIH3T3 cells. Changes in heat shock promoter activation following 100 mT SMF exposure were analyzed and detected as bioluminescence in real-time. Two heat parameters were considered in combination with sham- and 100 mT-exposed experiments: no heat or 1,800 s heat. As expected, there was a significant increase in bioluminescence in response to 1,800 s of heat alone. However, no significant difference in average hsp70 promoter activation between sham and 100 mT experiments was observed for no heat or 1,800 s heat experiments. Therefore, a 100 mT SMF was shown to have no effect on the activation of the heat shock protein promoter during SMF exposure or when SMF exposure was combined with a heat insult.

Abstract
Stress proteins such as heat shock proteins (Hsps) are up-regulated in cells in response to various forms of stress, like thermal and oxidative stress and inflammation. Hsps prevent cellular damage and increase immunoregulation by the activation of anti-inflammatory T-cells. Decreased capacity for stress-induced Hsp expression is associated with immune disorders. Thus, therapeutic boosting Hsp expression might restore or enhance cellular stress resistance and immunoregulation. Especially food- or herb-derived phytonutrients may be attractive compounds to restore optimal Hsp expression in response to stress. In the present study, we explored three readout systems to monitor Hsp70 expression in a manner relevant for the immune system and evaluated novel Hsp co-inducers. First, intracellular staining and analysis by flow cytometry was used to detect stress and/or dietary compound induced Hsp70 expression in multiple rodent cell types efficiently. This system was used to screen a panel of food-derived extracts with potent anti-oxidant capacity. This strategy yielded the identity of several new enhancers of stress-induced Hsp70 expression, among them carvacrol, found in thyme and oregano. Second, CD4(+) T-cell hybridomas were generated that specifically recognized an immunodominant Hsp70 peptide. These hybridomas were used to show that carvacrol enhanced Hsp70 levels increased T-cell activation. Third, we generated a DNAJB1-luc-O23 reporter cell line to show that carvacrol increased the transcriptional activation of a heat shock promoter in the presence of arsenite. These assay systems are generally applicable to identify compounds that affect the Hsp level in cells of the immune system.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with a variety of nightly stresses, including intermittent hypoxaemia, oxidative stress and sleep fragmentation. Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are upregulated in response to an array of environmental and metabolic stresses. We hypothesized that the OSA-related stresses would affect the expression of HSP70 in monocytes. Basal (30 min, at 37 degrees C), heat stress-induced HSP70 (30 min, at 43 degrees C) and basal tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) were determined by flow cytometry in monocytes of 10 patients with OSA and 10 controls matched by age, gender and body mass index. Oxidative stress was determined by thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and antioxidant paraoxonase-1 activity. Basal HSP70 expression was 1.8-fold higher in patients with OSA as compared with controls (P < 0.0005) and was significantly positively correlated with TBARS (r = 0.56, P < 0.009). However, induction of HSP70 in response to heat stress treatment was lower by 40% in OSA monocytes as compared with controls (P < 0.0003). Furthermore, heat stress-induced HSP70 expression was significantly negatively correlated with basal HSP70 expression independently of apnoea severity (r = -0.69, P < 0.0006). Also, basal intracellular TNF-alpha expression was inversely correlated with heat-shock-induced HSP70 (r = -0.78, P < 0.015) in OSA monocytes but not in controls. In conclusion, basal HSP70 overexpression that is a protective mechanism indicative of disease-associated stress was significantly higher in patients with OSA and was correlated with oxidative stress. On the other hand, in response to a defined heat-stress treatment, the induction of HSP70 was lower in patients with OSA, indicative of a possible maladaptive response to an acute stress. Correlations with oxidative stress and TNF-alpha further support this conclusion.

Abstract
PURPOSE We evaluated the relations among the arterial carbon monoxide (CO) concentration, heme oxygenase (HO)-1 expression by monocytes, oxidative stress, plasma levels of cytokines and bilirubin, and the outcome of patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. METHODS Thirty-six patients who fulfilled the criteria for severe sepsis or septic shock and 21 other patients without sepsis during their stay in the intensive care unit were studied. HO-1 protein expression by monocytes, arterial CO, oxidative stress, bilirubin, and cytokines were measured. RESULTS Arterial blood CO, cytokine, and bilirubin levels, and monocyte HO-1 protein expression were higher in patients with severe sepsis/septic shock than in non-septic patients. Increased HO-1 expression was related to the arterial CO concentration and oxidative stress. There was a positive correlation between survival and increased HO-1 protein expression or a higher CO level. CONCLUSIONS Arterial CO and monocyte HO-1 protein expression were increased in critically ill patients, particularly those with severe sepsis or septic shock, suggesting that oxidative stress is closely related to HO-1 expression. The HO-1/CO system may play an important role in sepsis.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins play an important role as molecular chaperones of the cell. Inducible heat shock protein 70 is rapidly synthesised in response to numerous stressors and monocytes are sensitive to changes in core temperature resulting in a circadian variation of Hsp70 expression. Monocytes were isolated via density centrifugation from nine healthy male volunteers at 5 am, 1 pm and 9 pm, representing the nadir (5 am), peak (9 pm) and intermediate (1 pm) of Hsp70 expression in the 24-h cycle. Analysis of freshly isolated monocytes for Hsp70 expression confirmed Hsp70 levels at the three selected time points. Monocytes were subjected to in vitro heat shock at 40 degrees C (+/-0.1) for 90 min with a 90 min 37 degrees C (+/-0.1) exposure acting as a control. A significant increase in Hsp70 was observed at 5 am (p < 0.001) and 1 pm (p = 0.028) at 40 degrees C when compared to 37 degrees C but not at 9 pm (p = 0.19). A significant increase was also observed from the basal levels of Hsp70, measured on freshly isolated monocytes and the levels detected after heat shock at 40 degrees C at 5 am (p < 0.001) and 1 pm (p = 0.001), which was not observed at 9 pm (p = 0.15). Furthermore, a significant correlation was observed in the heat shock response at 40 degrees C and that obtained at 37 degrees C (p < 0.001). In conclusion, the heat shock response in monocytes is directly proportional to the amount of Hsp70 present in the cells and the stress response may be much higher at different times of the day.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study Heat Shock Proteins (HSP) expression in patients subjected to radiotherapy and their potential use as biomarkers for radiation tolerance. An evaluation is also made of whether irradiated volume is critical to the outcome of normal tissue injury using polymorphonuclear neutrophils as biosensors, and whether HSP antibodies (Ab) may be involved in post-radiotherapy disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twelve patients receiving the same total dose of radiotherapy, but in three different volumes, and four healthy volunteers used as controls were analysed. hsp27 and 70i mRNA were determined by Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and Southern-blot, HSP by flow cytometry, and HSP-Ab by Enzyme-linked Immnoadsorbent Assay (ELISA). The clinical protocol included radiation related toxicity based on clinical and analytical scales. RESULTS Radiotherapy caused hsp downregulation, maximum in patients with the largest irradiated volumes, and a decrease in intracellular HSP content. Patients with greatest intraleukocyte HSP levels before treatment suffered more severe radiation morbidity. Patients with endocrine neoplasms presented the highest HSP-Ab titers. CONCLUSIONS Radiotherapy downregulates hsp27 and 70i, which would enhance radiosensitivity. HSP content prior to treatment is suggested as a prognostic biomarker for radiation tolerance, with circulating leukocytes as biosensors. HSP-Ab may be biomarkers of tumor disease, but do not seem to be involved in the morbidity of acute post-radiotherapy disease, which is closely related to the volumes irradiated.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study if prolonged in vitro exposure to 1800MHz radiofrequency (RF) could exert an effect on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from young and elderly donors by affecting apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane potential and heat shock protein (HSP) 70 levels. MATERIALS AND METHODS Endpoints were analysed in the presence or absence of the apoptosis-inducing agent 2-deoxy-D-ribose. Three different signal modulations typical of the Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) system were applied. The modulations are widely used in mobile telephony (GSM Basic, discontinuous transmission [DTX] and Talk) at specific absorption rates of 1.4 and 2.0 W kg(-1). RESULTS In all conditions and for all endpoints tested, there was no significant difference between RF- and sham-exposed cells. CONCLUSION 1800MHz RF could not induce apoptosis by itself or affect the apoptotic phenomenon when induced by an apoptotic agent. Moreover, RF did not modify the mitochondrial functionality and the expression of HSP 70.

Abstract
This study examined intracellular cytokine, heat shock protein (HSP) 72, and cellular apoptosis in classic and inflammatory CD14+monocyte subsets during exertional heat stress (EHS). Subjects were divided into endurance-trained [TR; n = 12, peak aerobic power (V̇o2peak) = 70 ± 2 ml·kg lean body mass (LBM)−1·min−1] and sedentary-untrained (UT; n = 11, V̇o2peak= 50 ± 1 ml·kg LBM−1·min−1) groups before walking at 4.5 km/h with 2% elevation in a climatic chamber (40°C, 30% relative humidity) wearing protective clothing until exhaustion (Exh). Venous blood samples at baseline and 0.5°C rectal temperature increments (38.0, 38.5, 39.0, 39.5, and 40.0°C/Exh) were analyzed for cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-1ra, and IL-10) in CD14++CD16−/CD14+CD16+and HSP72/apoptosis in CD14Bri/CD14Dimsubsets. In addition, serum levels of extracellular (e)HSP72 were also examined. Baseline and Exh samples were separately stimulated with LPS (1 μg/ml) or heat shocked (42°C) and cultured in vitro for 2 h. A greater temperature-dependent increase in CD14+CD16+cells was observed in TR compared with UT subjects as well as a greater LPS tolerance following in vitro LPS stimulation. TNF-α and IL-1β cytokine expression was elevated in CD14+CD16+but not in CD14++CD16−cells. A greater induction of intracellular HSP72 and eHSP72 was observed in TR compared with UT subjects, which coincided with reduced apoptosis at Exh and following in vitro heat shock. Induced HSP in vitro was not uniform across CD14+subsets. Findings suggest that circulating CD14+CD16+, but not CD14++CD16−monocytes, contribute to the proinflammatory cytokine profiles observed during EHS. In addition, the enhanced HSP72 response in endurance-trained individuals may confer improved heat tolerance through both anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic mechanisms.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins are highly conserved proteins and play an important chaperone role in aiding the folding of nascent proteins within cells. The heat shock protein response to various stressors, both in vitro and in vivo, is well characterised. However, basal levels of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) have not previously been investigated. Monocyte-expressed Hsp70 was determined every 4 h, over a 24 h time period, in 17 healthy male subjects (177 +/- 6.4 cm, 75.7 +/- 10.9 kg, 19.8 +/- 4.3 years) within a temperature and activity controlled environment. Core temperature was measured at 5-min intervals during the 24 h period. Hsp70 showed significant diurnal variation (F = 7.4; p < 0.001), demonstrating peaks at 0900 and 2100 hours, and a nadir at 05.00. Core temperature followed a similar temporal trend (range = 35.96-38.10 degrees C) and was significantly correlated with Hsp70 expression (r(s) = 0.44; p < 0.001). These findings suggest a high responsiveness of Hsp70 expression in monocytes to slight variations in core temperature.

Abstract
In the current studies, flow cytometric methods were used to demonstrate that heat shock protein (hsp) 70 is constitutively expressed in ovine and bovine leukocytes but that the level of expression varies considerably between different leukocyte types and between species. We also show that expression of hsp70 is upregulated in response to an in vitro heat shock treatment. The optimal temperature for heat shock of leukocytes from sheep and cattle is 43.5 degrees C. In sheep and cattle, the relative susceptibility of leukocyte type to upregulation of hsp70 expression, as assayed as percent positive cells, by in vitro heat shock was cell type specific. Best results were obtained from fresh samples; after storage at room temperature for 24h upregulation was highly variable between animals and less than in fresh samples. These studies demonstrate that evaluation of leukocyte hsp70 expression by flow cytometry is a robust, reproducible method for use in the evaluation of cellular stress responses in cattle and sheep. The application of the methods described may be a valuable tool in assessing in vivo stress responses in livestock species.

Abstract
Dendritic cell (DC)/tumor cell fusion cells (FCs) can induce potent CTL responses. The therapeutic efficacy of a vaccine requires the improved immunogenicity of both DCs and tumor cells. The DCs stimulated with the TLR agonist penicillin-killed Streptococcus pyogenes (OK-432; OK-DCs) showed higher expression levels of MHC class I and II, CD80, CD86, CD83, IL-12, and heat shock proteins (HSPs) than did immature DCs. Moreover, heat-treated autologous tumor cells displayed a characteristic phenotype with increased expression of HSPs, carcinoembryonic Ag (CEA), MUC1, and MHC class I (HLA-A2 and/or A24). In this study, we have created four types of FC preparation by alternating fusion cell partners: 1) immature DCs fused with unheated tumor cells; 2) immature DCs fused with heat-treated tumor cells; 3) OK-DCs fused with unheated tumor cells; and 4) OK-DCs fused with heat-treated tumor cells. Although OK-DCs fused with unheated tumor cells efficiently enhanced CTL induction, OK-DCs fused with heat-treated tumor cells were most active, as demonstrated by: 1) up-regulation of multiple HSPs, MHC class I and II, CEA, CD80, CD86, CD83, and IL-12; 2) activation of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells able to produce IFN- gamma at higher levels; 3) efficient induction of CTL activity specific for CEA or MUC1 or both against autologous tumor; and 4) superior abilities to induce CD107+ IFN-gamma+ CD8+ T cells and CD154+ IFN-gamma+ CD4+ T cells. These results strongly suggest that synergism between OK-DCs and heat-treated tumor cells enhances the immunogenicity of FCs and provides a promising means of inducing therapeutic antitumor immunity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the effect of Echinacea tablets on the expression of leucocyte heat shock protein 70 (hsp70), erythrocyte haemolysis, plasma antioxidant status, serum chemistry, haematological values and plasma alkylamide concentrations. METHOD Eleven healthy individuals (26-61 years of age) were evaluated at baseline (day 1) and on day 15 after consuming two commercially blended Echinacea tablets daily for 14 days. RESULTS Echinacea supplementation enhanced the fold increase in leucocyte hsp70 expression after a mild heat shock (P=0.029). White cell counts (WCC) were also increased (P=0.043). We also observed a preventative effect against free radical induced erythrocyte haemolysis (P=0.006) indicative of an antioxidant effect. CONCLUSION The pilot study suggests that Echinacea may invoke an immune response through altered expression of hsp70 and increased WCC.

Abstract
Despite many studies, the evidence as to whether radiofrequency fields are detrimental to health remains controversial, and the debate continues. Cells respond to some abnormal physiological conditions by producing cytoprotective heat-shock (or stress) proteins. The aim of this study was to determine whether exposure to mobile phone-type radiation causes a nonthermal stress response in human leukocytes. Human peripheral blood was sham-exposed or exposed to 900 MHz fields (continuous-wave or GSM-modulated signal) at three average specific absorption rates (0.4, 2.0 and 3.6 W/kg) for different durations (20 min, 1 h and 4 h) in a calibrated TEM cell placed in an incubator to give well-controlled atmospheric conditions at 37 degrees C and 95% air/5% CO(2). Positive (heat-stressed at 42 degrees C) and negative (kept at 37 degrees C) control groups were incubated simultaneously in the same incubator. Heat caused an increase in the number of cells expressing stress proteins (HSP70, HSP27), measured using flow cytometry, and this increase was dependent on time. However, no statistically significant difference was detected in the number of cells expressing stress proteins after RF-field exposure. These results suggest that mobile phone-type radiation is not a stressor of normal human lymphocytes and monocytes, in contrast to mild heating.

Abstract
Aging mammalians show reduced expression and induction of cytoprotective heat shock proteins in response to physiological stresses. Physical training can increase Hsp72 expression in young and old animals, but whether same adaptations can be observed in old people remains unknown. We hypothesized that the maintenance of physical activity during aging should preserve Hsp72 expression in leukocytes of elderly people. Intracellular and surface Hsp72 (the inducible form of Hsp70) expression in leukocytes as well as apoptotic and necrotic leukocytes were measured by flow cytometry at rest and after maximal incremental test on treadmill in the following groups: 8 young subjects (25.3+/-0.6 year, G25), 12 sexagenarians (66.2+/-1 year, G65) and 9 octogenarians (82.2+/-1.2 year, G85), all physically active. Protein and lipid oxidation markers were also measured at rest and post-exercise. Results showed significant lower basal percentages of Hsp72-positive lymphocytes in G85 compared to G25. At rest, lower mean fluorescence intensity in Hsp72-positive monocytes was measured in G65 and G85 compared to G25, and in granulocytes from G85 compared to G25. Maximal exercise test induced systemic oxidative-stress in the three groups but did not induce any increase in apoptotic or necrotic cells. We observed a significant increase in the percentage of Hsp72-positive lymphocytes from G85. This study showed that maintaining physical activity during aging can preserve the ability to induce Hsp72 in response to physiological stress.

Abstract
The biological liabilities that result from the release of metal ions from biomedical alloys, particularly Ni(2+) and Hg(2+), continue to be a concern. Heat-shock proteins (HSP) are a class of molecular chaperones that may be induced under conditions of cellular stress, including oxidative stress. Our hypothesis was that because Hg(2+) and Ni(2+) alter other cellular stress responses such as glutathione levels and cytokine secretion, these metal ions may alter HSP induction in monocytes, which are key cells in the response of tissues to biomedical alloys. THP-1 monocytes were exposed to sublethal concentrations of Hg(2+) or Ni(2+) for 1 h with or without heat stress (43 degrees C), then allowed to recover at 37 degrees C for 2-6 h. HSP72 was measured using immunoblotting with phosphorimage quantification. Hg(2+) exposures of 2-10 micromol/L induced HSP72 without heat stress. With heat stress, HSP72 levels were altered by Hg(2+) versus heat stress alone. The response depended on the concentration of Hg(2+) and the recovery time. Hg(2+) at 10 micromol/L caused uniformly lower HSP72 levels. Ni(2+) exposures of 20-100 micromol/L did not induce HSP72 without heat stress, but significantly altered heat-induced HSP72 expression, with a significant increase in expression over heat alone at 40 and 100 micromol/L. Results from the current study support the hypothesis that these metal ions can, at concentrations relevant to those released from biomedical alloys, modulate HSP expression in human monocytes. The modulation of HSP expression indicates an early sign of cellular stress that may be important to the overall biological response to biomedical alloys containing and releasing these metal ions.

Abstract
The induction of heat shock proteins (Hsp) is the response to a plethora of stress signals including hyperthermia, physical stress, and various disease states. Although changes in Hsp expression are associated with certain diseases, the question as to whether this is an adaptation to a particular pathophysiologic state or a reflection of the suboptimal cellular environment associated with the disease remains open. In this study we have investigated the effects of inflammatory mediators on the induction of Hsp 70 in human peripheral mononuclear blood cells using flow cytometry. We demonstrate that without heat shock, the levels of the inflammatory mediators are positively related to Hsp 70 production in monocytes. On the contrary, negative correlations were found between heat induced Hsp 70 production and interleukin-6 (IL-6), as well as various markers of inflammation. These observations are in agreement with the antagonistic effects between heat stress and the inflammatory mediators on the activation of Hsp promoter.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (Hsps) or stress proteins, and, in particular, the inducible, cytosolic Hsp70, represent a highly conserved response to heat exposure and to a variety of noxious stimuli. Many investigations have shown correlations between the aberrant expression of Hsps and disease states. Whether the basal and inducible levels of Hsp70 are of any biological significance in patients with heat-induced diseases remains unknown. In the present study, we compared the basal and inducible levels of Hsp70 by flow cytometry in lymphocytes of patients with heat-induced diseases and after recovery from this disease, and in matched controls. Both groups comprised individuals who exercised by running in the same hot environment. The level of inducible Hsp70 was also measured after a heat treatment of lymphocytes in vitro. The results show that there is variation of basal and inducible Hsp70 levels among individuals. However, the group of patients suffering from heat-induced illnesses in May shows a significantly higher basal (P = 0.02) level of Hsp70 than does the control group. Individuals who have an increased level of Hsp70 may be more sensitive to heat or may respond differently. The level of Hsp70 may represent a biomarker to evaluate whether they are more susceptible to stresses than other individuals. Interestingly, the basal level of Hsp70 is higher in both the patient group and the control group in November than in May. In fact, the basal levels of Hsp70 in the patient and control groups are essentially the same in November, perhaps reflecting the successful stress conditioning of both groups.

Abstract
Current methods to determine heat shock protein (Hsp) synthesis or accumulation in plant cells, such as Western blotting and biometabolic labelling are either indirectly quantitative, labour-intensive or biohazardous. An optimal flow cytometric protocol was developed to measure the intracellular Hsp70/Hsc70 levels in tobacco protoplasts. After heat treatments, protoplasts were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde-phosphate-buffered saline and dehydrated overnight in methyl cellusolve, followed by permeabilization with Triton X-100 (0.1% in Protoplast Wash Fluid). Immunolabelling of Hsp70/Hsc70 was done for 1 hour with a mouse monoclonal antibody and detected by R-Phycoerythrin-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG using flow cytometry. Flow cytometry detected a significant 1.2-fold increase in Hsp70/Hsc70 accumulation (P < 0.001) in protoplasts, while Western blotting, quantified by image analysis, showed induction under similar conditions but at lower significance (P < 0.05). The coefficients of variance for flow cytometry and Western blotting were 30.7 and 49.8 respectively. Optimum temperature of heat-induced Hsp70/Hsc70 accumulation in tobacco protoplasts occurred at 40 degrees C. Flow cytometry is proposed as a quantitative, more reproducible and rapid alternative to Western blotting for the detection of Hsp70 accumulation in plant cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells are well characterized in terms of morphological and biochemical changes upon activation, and have been extensively used as a model system for studying the mechanisms of the immediate hypersensitivity reaction. To investigate whether overexpression of heat shock/stress proteins (HSP) is involved in the mast cell-dependent reactivity, we examined the adaptive responses of RBL-2H3 cells to classical stress conditions such as heat shock or oxidative injury produced by an aqueous extract of tobacco smoke. METHODS HSP were determined by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. Degranulation was confirmed as the release of beta-hexosaminidase, determined spectrophotometrically, and by electron microscopy experiments. RESULTS We found that RBL-2H3 cells respond to heat shock or oxidative injury by the synthesis of both the inducible 72 kDa HSP (Hsp70), and the oxidation-specific 32 kDa heme oxygenase (HO)-1. Heat shock induced mainly Hsp70 in a cell growth-dependent manner, whereas oxidative stress induced mainly HO-1 in a cell growth-independent manner. However, heat shock or oxidative stress had no significant effects on degranulation. CONCLUSION Stress-mediated synthesis of HSP was not associated with RBL-2H3 degranulation and likewise, degranulation did not induce HSP.

Abstract
We have investigated the effect of age and of the presence of proinflammatory cytokines on Hsp 70 production in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, using flow cytometry. Twenty-seven women and 23 men, all apparently healthy, participated in the study. At 37 degrees C, the percentage of Hsp 70-producing monocytes and lymphocytes, as well as the level of Hsp 70 in monocytes, were negatively influenced by age. After exposure of the cells to 42 degrees C, the increase of Hsp 70 production was more pronounced in monocytes than in lymphocytes; both the intensity of Hsp 70 production and the percentage of Hsp 70-producing cells were negatively influenced by the age of the subjects, as well for monocytes as for lymphocytes. There was a negative correlation between the intensity of Hsp 70 production by monocytes exposed to 42 degrees C and the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6. In conclusion, in human monocytes and lymphocytes, heat-induced Hsp 70 production is reduced with increasing age and is negatively influenced in monocytes by proinflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Few studies have investigated the ability of dental resins to induce cellular stress at sublethal concentrations. Cellular stress, especially in immune cells such as monocytes, may modulate the biological response to materials or the host's ability to respond to bacterially mediated inflammation. The current study examined the ability of sublethal concentrations of 2-hydroxylethylmethacrylate (HEMA) and triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) to induce heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) in human monocytes. HEMA and TEGDMA significantly suppressed heat-induced HSP72 expression, even at sublethal levels, but did not induce HSP72 by themselves. The results of the current study suggest that components released from dental resin could modulate the HSP stress response without altering cellular metabolic activity.

Abstract
Epidemiologic analyses, traditionally based on long-term cohort or case-control studies, provide retrospective causal associations between exposure to a particular environmental stressor and an exposure-related disease end point. Recent research initiatives have propelled a shift toward exploring molecular epidemiology and molecular biological markers (biomarkers) as a means of providing more immediate, quantitative risk assessment of potentially deleterious environmental exposures. We compared, in normal human monocytes isolated from the blood of healthy donors, variations in Hsp70 expression and mitochondrial membrane potential (delta psi m) in response to exposure to either tobacco smoke or gamma-irradiation, two models for environmentally mediated oxidant exposure. On the basis of its mechanistic specificity for oxidants and little baseline variation in cells from distinct individuals, we propose that delta psi m represents a selective in vitro and in vivo biomarker for oxidant exposure. delta psi m may be used to gauge risks associated with oxidant-mediated air pollution and radiation.

Abstract
During sepsis and major trauma the blood glutamine (Gln) level is reduced. The administration of Gln can improve the outcome of these patients. However, the mechanism of this beneficial effect of Gln is poorly understood. In the course of critical illness leucocytes are confronted with cytotoxic inflammatory mediators. To protect themselves against these factors, cells express heat shock proteins (HSP). Previous studies have shown that the expression of the major inducible HSP (HSP70) is improved by high Gln concentrations above 4 mM. In this study we investigated whether Gln depletion, such as observed during critical illness, has an effect on HSP70 expression. Human lymphocytes exposed for 2 h to 42 degrees C showed a 3-fold increase in HSP70 expression (P<0.01). A preceding Gln starvation period over 3 days had no influence on this increase. However, when Gln is reduced during the stress response, HSP70 expression is impaired. A reduction of Gln from 0.5 mM (physiological) to 0.125 mM (pathological) led to a 40% lower HSP70 level (P<0.002). In contrast, increasing Gln concentrations (up to 2 mM) had only minor stimulatory effects (about 15%). This Gln-dependency of heat mediated HSP70 expression was observed in resting as well as proliferating lymphocytes. Our data indicate that during periods of reduced plasma Gln levels the stress response of human lymphocytes is impaired. Thus, Gln may be essential to minimize the susceptibility of leucocytes to cytotoxic inflammatory mediators. This is a new aspect of the protective effect of Gln supplementation in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Fever has been associated with shortened duration and improved survival in infectious disease. The mechanism of this beneficial response is still poorly understood. The heat-inducible 70-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp70) has been associated with protection of leukocytes against the cytotoxicity of inflammatory mediators and with improved survival of severe infections. This study characterizes the induction of Hsp70 by feverlike temperatures in human leukocytes in vitro and in vivo. Using flow cytometry, Hsp70 expression was determined in whole blood samples. This approach eliminated cell isolation procedures that would greatly affect the results. Heat treatment of whole blood in vitro for 2 hours at different temperatures revealed that Hsp70 expression depends on temperature and cell type; up to 41 degrees C, Hsp70 increased only slightly in lymphocytes and polymorphonuclear leukocytes. However, in monocytes a strong induction was already seen at 39 degrees C, and Hsp70 levels at 41 degrees C were 10-fold higher than in the 37 degrees C control. To be as close as possible to the physiological situation during fever, we immersed healthy volunteers in a hot water bath, inducing whole body hyperthermia (39 degrees C), and measured leukocyte Hsp70 expression. Hsp70 was induced in all leukocytes with comparable but less pronounced cell type-specific variations as observed in vitro. Thus, a systemic increase of body temperature as triggered by fever stimulates Hsp70 expression in peripheral leukocytes, especially in monocytes. This fever-induced Hsp70 expression may protect monocytes when confronted with cytotoxic inflammatory mediators, thereby improving the course of the disease.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Reduced mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta(Psi)m), which is considered as an initial and irreversible step towards apoptosis, as well as cell death regulating proteins, such as Fas, Hsp70, or Bcl-2, may play an important role in sepsis. We studied the relationship between sepsis severity and peripheral blood monocyte Delta(Psi)m, cell death (necrosis and apoptosis), soluble Fas ligand, Hsp70, and Bcl-2 expression over time in 18 patients with sepsis, and compared these data with those of a group of 17 healthy control subjects. All measurements were performed within 3 d of the onset of severe sepsis (T1), then 7 to 10 d later (T2), and finally at hospital discharge (T3). Delta(Psi)m was expressed as the percent monocytes with altered Delta(Psi)m (%Delta(Psi)m). Patients with sepsis had greater %Delta(Psi)m at T1 and T2 but not at T3 (14.6 +/- 2.6% and 15.9 +/- 2%, respectively, versus control 6.6 +/- 0.2%, p < 0.01). Septic patients exhibited greater cell death in their monocytes and had greater Hsp70 expression only at T1. Bcl-2 levels were similar in septic and control subjects. Comparing survivors with non-survivors of sepsis, nonsurvivors had a greater %Delta(Psi)m at T1 (26.4 +/- 5.3% versus 10.1 +/- 2.7%, p < 0.01) and a significant decrease in Bcl-2 expression, whereas no difference was found in Hsp70 levels. These results indicate that mitochondrial dysfunction and subsequent cell death occur in severe sepsis and suggest that %Delta(Psi)m is a marker of severity in human sepsis.

Abstract
Smoking is an important risk factor for atherosclerosis. We compared tobacco smoke filtrate with benzo[a]pyrene (a prominent xenobiotic component of tobacco smoke) for the capacity to induce stress proteins and cause cell death in human monocytes and vascular endothelial cells, two cell types that are involved in the formation of atherosclerotic lesions. Exposure to freshly prepared filtrates of tobacco smoke induced in both monocytes and endothelial cells expression of the inducible heat shock protein (HSP)70 and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and produced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. Later, cell death by apoptosis or necrosis occurred depending on the concentration of tobacco smoke. These toxic effects could be prevented by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. In contrast, exposure of these cells to benzo[a]pyrene alone evoked neither stress proteins nor mitochondrial damage but did induce cell death by necrosis. Thus our results indicate that tobacco smoke rapidly induces complex oxidant-mediated stress responses in both vascular endothelial cells and circulating monocytes that are independent of the benzo[a]pyrene content of the smoke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We previously reported that skin closure is improved by photoirradiation of the wound margins with an 815-nm diode laser system. OBJECTIVES To determine whether the beneficial effects of laser treatment involve the overexpression of the inducible 72-kDa heat shock protein, Hsp70. METHODS Expression of Hsp70 was investigated by immunocytochemistry in normal hairless rat dorsal skin and compared with its expression after laser photoirradiation. RESULTS Constitutive expression of Hsp70 was mainly confined to the upper epidermal layer. Laser irradiation further increased epidermal expression of Hsp70 while inducing de novo synthesis of the protein in dermal structures, particularly around blood vessels, hair follicles and sebaceous glands. Laser-induced expression of Hsp70 was still present 7 days after photoirradiation. CONCLUSIONS Laser-induced expression of Hsp70 might contribute to improved tissue regeneration and wound healing.

Abstract
Exposure of eukaryotic cells to a variety of reactive-oxygen-intermediate (ROI)-mediated sources of cellular injury, including heavy metals and UV radiation, induces the expression of heat-shock (HS) and stress-related genes among which is a 32-34 kDa protein identified as inducible haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1). We previously showed that tobacco smoke (TS), a potent source of oxidants leading to oxidative stress, induces both HS proteins (HSPs) and HO-1 in normal human monocytes. Here we investigated the induction mechanisms of human HO-1 gene expression by TS in the human premonocytic line U937. Northern blotting and flow cytometry revealed a dose- and time-dependent induction of HO-1 mRNA and protein by TS. In order to clarify the role of transacting factors in this induction, electrophoretic mobility-shift analysis was performed with nuclear extracts from control, TS-, cadmium (Cd)- or H(2)O(2)-exposed cells, incubated with consensus elements and binding sites of the promoter region of HO-1[heat-shock factor (HSF), nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) and activator protein-1 (AP-1)] and the cadmium-responsive element (CdRE) isolated by Takeda, Ishizawa, Sato, Yoshida and Shibahara [(1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 22858-22867]. We report an inhibition of NF-kappaB activation by TS, no effect on AP-1 and a strong activation of CdRE-binding activity, whereas cadmium chelation from TS only partially prevented HO-1 induction. H(2)O(2) also activated the CdRE-binding activity, and pretreatment with N-acetyl-L-cysteine, which replenishes the intracellular levels of GSH, suppressed, in TS-treated cells, both the CdRE-binding activity and the increased HO-1 expression.

Abstract
The free radicals nitric oxide (.NO) and superoxide (O(2)(-).) react to form peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), a highly toxic oxidant species. In this study we investigated the respective effects of NO and ONOO(-) in monocytes from healthy human donors. Purified monocytes were incubated for 6 or 16 h with a pure NO donor (S-nitroso-N-acetyl-DL-penicillamine, 0-2 mM), an.NO/ONOO(-) donor (3-morpholinosydnonimine chlorhydrate, 0-2 mM) with and without superoxide dismutase (200 IU/ml), or pure ONOO(-). We provide evidence that 3-morpholinosydnonimine chlorhydrate alone represents a strong stress to human monocytes leading to a dose-dependent increase in heat shock protein-70 (HSP70) expression, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, and cell death by apoptosis and necrosis. These phenomena were abolished by superoxide dismutase, suggesting that ONOO(-), but not.NO, was responsible for the observed effects. This observation was further strengthened by the absence of a stress response in cells exposed to S-nitroso-N-acetyl-DL-penicillamine. Conversely, exposure of cells to ONOO(-) alone also induced mitochondrial membrane depolarization and cell death by apoptosis and necrosis. Thus ONOO(-) formation may well explain the toxic effect generally attributed to.NO.

Abstract
The activation/adaptive responses of human monocytes exposed to Bordetella pertussis parental or mutant strains were evaluated and correlated to the expression of two bacterial toxins: adenylate cyclase-hemolysin and pertussis toxin. The marked rise in intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) observed in monocytes infected by B. pertussis parental strain, inversely correlated with (1) the production of tumor necrosis factor alpha; (2) the release of superoxide anion; and (3) the expression of the 72-kDa heat shock/stress protein, Hsp70. Experiments performed with mutants deficient in adenylate cyclase-hemolysin or with purified bacterial toxins confirmed the key role of adenylate cyclase-hemolysin in the control of monocytes' response to infection by B. pertussis. This bacterial strategy primarily involves evasion from antimicrobial defenses and, eventually, the sacrifice of the host cell.

Abstract
The purposes of this study were to investigate the role of nitric oxide (NO), nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and 70 kDa heat shock protein in brain ischemic tolerance induced by ischemic preconditioning and lipopolysaccharide. Focal cerebral ischemia was induced in rats by intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion. Infarct volume was significantly reduced (1) in rats subjected to 3 min ischemia 72 h prior to 60 min ischemia; (2) in rats administered lipopolysaccharide (0.5 mg/kg; i.p.) 72 h prior to 60 min ischemia compared with controls. The beneficial effect of ischemic preconditioning was unchanged despite prior administration of nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), a NOS inhibitor. Conversely, the protective effect of lipopolysaccharide was nullified by L-NAME. Using immunohistochemical techniques, we observed that (1) ischemic preconditioning but not lipopolysaccharide induces the expression of 70 kDa heat shock protein in cerebral cortex and (2) lipopolysaccharide induces early increased expression of endothelial NOS in cerebral blood vessels. The results suggest that (1) endothelium-derived NO plays a role of a trigger in the brain tolerance induced by lipopolysaccharide, and (2) 70 kDa heat shock protein is involved in the protection afforded by ischemic preconditioning but not by lipopolysaccharide.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of RRR-alpha-tocopherol (500 IU/day, 8 days) on in vivo cytokine response and cytoplasmic expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and the antioxidant stress protein heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in human leukocytes after exhaustive exercise. Thirteen men were investigated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study with a wash-out period of 28 days. The exercise procedure consisted of an incremental treadmill test followed by a continuous run until exhaustion at 110% of the individual anaerobic threshold (total duration 28.5 +/- 0.8 min). HO-1 and iNOS protein were assessed in mono- (M), lympho-, and granulocytes (G) using flow cytometry. Plasma interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 were measured by ELISA. IL-6 rose significantly whereas IL-8 did not exhibit significant changes after exercise. Changes of IL-6 were not affected by RRR-alpha-tocopherol. Exercise induced an increase of iNOS protein primarily in M and G. A small, but significant, increase of HO-1 protein was measured in M and G. RRR-alpha-Tocopherol did not show any significant effects on cytoplasmic expression of iNOS and HO-1 at rest and after exercise. In conclusion, exhaustive exercise induces expression of iNOS and HO-1 in human leukocytes by a mechanism that is not sensitive to RRR-alpha-tocopherol supplementation.

Abstract
The heat shock/stress proteins (HSP), and, in particular, the inducible, cytosolic Hsp70, represent an extremely conserved response to many different cellular injuries, including reactive oxygen species (ROS). Hsp70 has been shown to confer to cells and tissues protection against the deleterious effects of ROS or cytokines, both in vitro and in animal models of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We hypothesized that Hsp70 expression levels in peripheral blood monocytes (PBM) of patients with ARDS, would correlate with disease severity. We prospectively included 13 patients with previous ARDS (50 +/- 17 yr; range, 20 to 76 yr), nine ventilated patients with non-ARDS/ALI disease (45 +/- 20 yr; range, 19 to 76 yr), and 14 healthy volunteers (45 +/- 20 yr; range, 22 to 77 yr). PBM activation state was evaluated according to their membrane expression of CD16, and oxidative status according to plasma lipid peroxidation products. Both baseline expression and Hsp70 inducibility (after in vitro heat shock) were examined in PBM, using flow cytometric analysis. We found that basal expression of Hsp70 in PBM was similar for patients and control subjects, whereas Hsp70 inducibility- a reflection of the ability to mount a stress response-was significantly reduced in the patients with ARDS (p = 0. 02). Among all correlation analyses we considered between Hsp70 inducibility on the one hand, clinical and laboratory biomarkers for disease severity and outcome in the patients with ARDS on the other, only the duration of ventilatory support was significant (p < 0.003). As an approach to distinguish between disease and ventilation, we also analyzed a group of, ventilated patients without ARDS. Our results indicate that in patients with ARDS, Hsp70 inducibility in PBM is decreased, but it recovers over time with duration of ventilatory support.

Abstract
The cellular mechanisms by which pulmonary surfactant exerts its effects, including anti-inflammatory or proinflammatory effects, have remained elusive. To address the issue of whether plasma membrane modifications represent a target for these mechanisms, we designed an experimental protocol involving the determination of changes in cAMP levels under membrane-dependent or -independent stimulatory pathways. The effects of a modified natural porcine surfactant, Curosurf, and the major surfactant protein A were evaluated on resting and stimulated cAMP levels of human monocytes. We found that agents that elevate intracellular cAMP exhibit different susceptibilities toward a preexposure to Curosurf. The rise in cAMP induced by membrane-active agents such as cholera toxin or the diterpene forskolin was significantly inhibited by monocyte preexposure to Curosurf. In contrast, the rise in cAMP induced by the membrane-permeant phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine or by the Bordetella pertussis toxin adenylate cyclase-hemolysin was unaffected by Curosurf. Surfactant protein A did not affect either cAMP levels or the inhibitory capacity of Curosurf. We suggest that a plasma membrane-associated event affecting the mechanism underlying the effects of cholera toxin or forskolin is involved in the inhibition of cAMP accumulation caused by Curosurf.

Abstract
Tobacco smoke (TS) exposure is a major risk factor for human disease, and macrophages of healthy smokers have a depressed capacity to release cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)alpha. TS induces the synthesis of heat shock (HS)/stress proteins (HSP), and, in particular, of Hsp70. We determined whether Hsp70 induction by TS was mediated by the activation of the HS transcription factor, HSF. HSF activation has been shown to inhibit NFkappaB. Thus, we also determined the effects of TS on NFkappaB. U937 cells and human peripheral blood monocytes were exposed to TS, binding activities of the respective transcription factors were analyzed, and Hsp70 expression and TNFalpha release were determined in parallel. TS activated HSF, which was associated with Hsp70 overexpression and inhibition of NFkappaB binding activity and TNFalpha release. The altered cytokine profile observed in smokers may relate to an HSF/Hsp70-mediated inhibition of NFkappaB activity.
