Abare MY, Rahayu S, Tugiyanti E. Review: The role of heat shock proteins in chicken: Insights into stress adaptation and health. Res Vet Sci 2023; 165:105057. [PMID: 37864906 DOI: 10.1016/j.rvsc.2023.105057] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 10/14/2023] [Indexed: 10/23/2023]
Abstract
This review article aimed to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the function of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in chicken physiology, stress response, and overall poultry health. With the increasing challenges faced by the livestock industry, particularly the poultry sector, due to climate change-induced high ambient temperatures, heat stress (HS) has become a critical concern. HS disrupts the thermal balance in poultry, leading to detrimental effects on growth, immune function, and overall health. HSPs play a pivotal role in mitigating the impacts of HS in chickens. These molecular chaperones are involved in protein folding, unfolding, and assembly, and they are classified into several families based on their size, including small molecule HSPs, HSP40, HSP60, HSP70, HSP90, and HSP110. By maintaining cellular homeostasis and promoting stress tolerance, HSPs act as vital guardians in helping chickens cope with HS and its associated consequences. The review synthesized relevant literature to shed light on the importance of HSPs in stress adaptation, cellular homeostasis, and the maintenance of normal cell metabolism in chickens. The adverse effects of HS on chickens include oxidative stress and compromised immune systems, making them more susceptible to infections. So also, HS negatively affects production performance and meat quality in poultry. Understanding the functions of HSPs in chickens offers valuable insights into stress adaptation and health, and could potentially lead to the identification of HSP biomarkers, genetic selection for heat tolerance, investigations into the interplay between HSPs and immune function, and the development of nutritional interventions to enhance HSP activity. By exploring these potential research directions, the review aimed to contribute to the development of novel approaches to mitigate the negative effects of HS on poultry, ultimately improving productivity and animal welfare in a changing climate.

A comparative study on effect of heat stress on physiological and cellular responses of crossbred cattle and riverine buffalo in subtropical region of India. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BIOMETEOROLOGY 2023; 67:1619-1628. [PMID: 37495744 DOI: 10.1007/s00484-023-02523-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2022] [Revised: 04/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
The study was carried out to compare the in vitro and in vivo heat shock responses of cattle and buffaloes. The expression of heat responsive genes (HSP70 and HSF family) were studied in vitro in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of cattle and buffalo. In vivo observations on animals were carried out to investigate the physiological responses of cattle and buffalo at different THI over a period of 14 months. The study indicated that onset and severity of heat stress at different THI varied significantly between cattle and buffalo. Rectal temperature (RT) showed a significant (p < 0.05) increase at THI 67 in buffaloes and at THI 68 in cattle. Significant (p < 0.01) differences in RT between the species were observed at THI 71, 72, and 73. Respiration rate (RR) significantly (p < 0.05) increased at THI 70 in both the species and significant (p < 0.05) differences in RR were observed between the species at THI 65, 68, 69, and 74. THI had significant (p < 0.05) effect on blood glucose and blood electrolytes of the species with increased levels at higher THI. Serum AST and ALT levels showed less pronounced changes over increasing THI. Heat stress-associated expressions of HSP 70 genes followed temporal changes with incremental THI. The expression of HSPA8 was consistent at lower THI whereas upregulation of HSPA1A and HSPA1L was evident at higher THI. The study concludes that changes in physiological parameters such as RT and RR occur in a phasic pattern in both species and onset of heat stress was early in buffalo as compared to cattle.

Abstract
The poultry sector is one of the most important food industries in the world. Poultry production generates high-value protein products (meat and eggs) that are produced efficiently without the need for large areas. In poultry production, especially in the tropics, environmental factors, such as temperature and humidity, play a major role. Heat stress (HS) causes behavioral, physical, and physiological changes in poultry, with severe financial impacts. Therefore, it is important to find strategies to minimize it. The naked neck (Na) is an autosomal, incompletely dominant gene. Compared with normal feathered birds, these animals are known for their ability to adapt, perform, and reproduce under hot and humid climate conditions. Due to the absence of feathers on the neck, these animals increase heat dissipation, alleviating adverse heat effects, especially on productive performance. Genetic improvement of heat tolerance may provide a low-cost solution, of particular interest for developing countries in the tropics. The focus of this review is to evaluate the impact of HS in poultry with a special emphasis on the advantages of using the Na gene.

Manganese alleviates heat stress of primary cultured chick embryonic myocardial cells via enhancing manganese superoxide dismutase expression and attenuating heat shock response. J Therm Biol 2023; 112:103440. [PMID: 36796895 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtherbio.2022.103440] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Manganese (Mn) is an essential trace element that has been shown to attenuate the adverse effects of heat stress in the heart of broiler breeders and embryos. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms involving this process remain unclear. Therefore, two experiments were conducted to investigate the possible protective mechanisms of Mn on primary cultured chick embryonic myocardial cells exposed to heat challenge. In experiment 1, the myocardial cells were exposed to 40 °C (normal temperature, NT) and 44 °C (high temperature, HT) for 1, 2, 4, 6 or 8 h. In experiment 2, the myocardial cells were preincubated with no Mn supplementation (CON), 1 mmol/L of Mn as the inorganic MnCl2 (iMn) or organic Mn proteinate (oMn) under NT for 48 h, and then continuously incubated under NT or HT for another 2 or 4 h. The results from experiment 1 showed that the myocardial cells incubated for 2 or 4 h had the highest (P < 0.0001) heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) or HSP90 mRNA levels than those incubated for other incubation times under HT. In experiment 2, HT increased (P < 0.05) the heat-shock factor 1 (HSF1) and HSF2 mRNA levels as well as Mn superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) activity of myocardial cells compared with NT. Furthermore, supplemental iMn and oMn increased (P < 0.02) HSF2 mRNA level and MnSOD activity of myocardial cells compared with the CON. Under HT, the HSP70 and HSP90 mRNA levels were lower (P < 0.03) in iMn group than in the CON group, in oMn group than in iMn group; and the MnSOD mRNA and protein levels were higher (P < 0.05) in oMn group than in the CON and iMn groups. These results from the present study indicate that supplemental Mn, especially oMn, could enhance the MnSOD expression and attenuate heat shock response to protect against heat challenge in primary cultured chick embryonic myocardial cells.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Thermal stress (hot or cold) is one of many environmental stressors that severely affects the health of broiler chickens. One negative effect of thermal stress is the disruption of the intestinal barrier function in broiler chickens. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of thermal manipulation (TM) on the small intestine in terms of histomorphometry as well as junctional, heat-shock, and immune response gene expression during post-hatch exposure to thermal stress. Materials and Methods: The experiment was conducted by dividing 928 fertile Ross eggs into three incubation groups: The control (C) group (incubated at 37.8°C and 56% relative humidity [RH] for the whole incubation period), the TM using low temperature TML group (incubated at 36°C and 56% RH for 18 h/day from embryonic days 7 to 16), and the TM using high temperature (TMH) group (incubated at 39°C and 65% RH for 18 h/day from embryonic days 7 to 16). On post-hatch day 21, 90 chicks were randomly selected from each incubation group and were equally subdivided into three subgroups for the post-hatch thermal stress experiment: The TN subgroup (room temperature maintained at 24°C), the heat stress (HS) subgroup (room temperature maintained at 35°C), and the cold stress (CS) subgroup (room temperature maintained at 16°C). After 1 day of thermal stress exposure (age 22 days), five birds from each subgroup were euthanized and ileum samples were collected to evaluate the transcription of the Claudin (CLDN1), CLDN-5, Occludin, Cadherin-1, heat shock factors (HSF1), HSF3, 70 kilodalton heat shock protein, 90 kilodalton heat shock protein, Interleukin6 (IL6), IL8, toll-like receptors-2 (TLR2), and TLR4 genes by Real-Time Quantitative Reverse Transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis. Finally, after 4 and 7 days of thermal stress (age 25 and 28 days, respectively), nine chicks were euthanized, and their jejunum and ileum were collected for histomorphometric analysis. Results: After exposure to 1 day of thermal stress, the C subgroups exposed to thermal stress (HS and CS) possessed significantly increased expression of junctional, heat-shock, and immune response genes compared to the C-TN subgroup, and similar results were observed for the TMH. In contrast, thermally stressed TMH subgroups had significantly lower expression of the studied genes compared to C subgroups exposed to thermal stress. Furthermore, no significant changes were detected between the TML subgroups exposed to thermal stress and TML-TN. Moreover, significant alterations in villus height (VH), villus surface area, crypt depth (CD), and VH to CD ratio were observed between the TML, TMH, and C subgroups exposed to CS. Conclusion: It might be suggested that TM may have a protective impact on the small intestine histomorphometry and epithelial integrity of broilers during post-hatch exposure to thermal stress.

Abstract
Heat stress induced by long periods of high ambient temperature decreases animal productivity, leading to heavy economic losses. This devastating situation for livestock production is even becoming worse under the present climate change scenario. Strategies focused to breed animals with better thermo-tolerance and climatic resilience are keenly sought these days to mitigate impacts of heat stress especially in high input livestock production systems. The 70-kDa heat shock proteins (HSP70) are a protein family known for its potential role in thermo-tolerance and widely considered as cellular thermometers. HSP70 function as molecular chaperons and have major roles in cellular thermotolerance, apoptosis, immune-modulation and heat stress. Expression of HSP70 is controlled by various factors such as, intracellular pH, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP), protein kinase C and intracellular free calcium, etc. Over expression of HSP70 has been observed under oxidative stress leading to scavenging of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and protection of pulmonary endothelial barrier against bacterial toxins. Polymorphisms in flanking and promoter regions in HSP70 gene have shown association with heat tolerance, weaning weight, milk production, fertility and disease susceptibility in livestock. This review provides insight into pivotal roles of HSP70 which make it an ideal candidate genetic marker for selection of animals with better climate resilience, immune response and superior performance.

Abstract
In response to heat stress, interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression is upregulated in broiler chickens. The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the cumulative effects of thermal manipulation (TM) and subsequent acute heat stress (AHS) on the mRNA expression of IL-6 and genes involved in its induction pathways. The studied genes include IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, TLR2, TLR4, NFκB50, NFκB65, Hsp70, and HSF3 in the spleen and liver tissues. TM was carried out at 39°C for 18 h and 65% relative humidity during days 10 to 18 of embryonic development, while AHS was stimulated by raising the temperature to 40°C for 7 h on post-hatch day 28. During AHS at 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 h, the spleen and liver were collected from all groups to measure the mRNA expression by relative-quantitation real-time RT-PCR, and the blood was collected to measure plasma IL-6 level. TM significantly reduced Tc during AHS for both breeds from 1 to 7 h time intervals. TM resulted in enhanced basal mRNA expression of IL-6, HSF3, and Hsp70, but decreased the basal mRNA level of TLR4. During heat stress, TM enhanced the expression dynamics of Hsp70, HSF3, IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, TLR2, TLR4, NFκB50, and NFκB65. The results of the current study indicate that TM enhanced the heat tolerance through improving the protective immunological response to heat stress by enhancing the expression of IL-6 and modulating the expression of genes important in its induction pathways.

Abstract
AbstractTo investigate the effect of Mn on antioxidant status and on the expressions of heat shock proteins/factors in tissues of laying broiler breeders subjected to heat challenge, we used a completely randomised design (n 6) with a factorial arrangement of 2 environmental temperatures (normal, 21±1°C, and high, 32±1°C)×3 dietary Mn treatments (a Mn-unsupplemented basal diet (CON), or a basal diet supplemented with 120 mg Mn/kg diet, either as inorganic Mn sulphate (iMn) or as organic Mn proteinate (oMn)). There were no interactions (P>0·10) between environmental temperature and dietary Mn in any of the measured indices. High temperature decreased (P<0·003) Mn content, and also tended (P=0·07) to decrease Cu Zn superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD) activity in the liver and heart. However, an increased Mn superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) activity (P<0·05) and a slight increase in malondialdehyde level (P=0·06) were detected in breast muscle. Up-regulated (P<0·05) expressions of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) and HSF3 mRNA and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) mRNA and protein were found in all three tissues. Broiler breeders fed either iMn or oMn had higher tissue Mn content (P<0·0001), heart MnSOD and CuZnSOD activities (P<0·01) and breast muscle MnSOD protein levels (P<0·05), and lower (P<0·05) breast muscle HSP70 mRNA and protein levels compared with those fed CON. Broiler breeders fed oMn had higher (P<0·03) bone Mn content than those fed iMn. These results indicate that high temperature decreases Mn retention and increases HSP70, HSF1 and HSF3 expressions in the tissues of laying broiler breeders. Furthermore, dietary supplementation with Mn in either source may enhance the heart’s antioxidant ability and inhibit the expression of HSP70 in breast muscle. Finally, the organic Mn appears to be more available than inorganic Mn for bone in laying broiler breeders regardless of environmental temperatures.

Abstract
Of the many heat shock proteins (HSPs), hsp70 appears to correlate best with heat resistance, either permanent or transient. We have investigated various approaches to quantify the concentration of hsp70, and examined the relationship between hsp70 and cells' thermal sensitivity during the development and decay of thermotolerance in model systems. Specifically, experiments were performed to determine the possibility of using the rate of synthesis of hsp70 after a second test heat shock to predict the kinetics of thermotolerance in tumor cells in vitro and in animal tumor models. We found that the cells' ability to re-initiate hsp70 synthesis in response to the test heat shock inversely correlated with retained thermotolerance. These data suggest the level of hsp70 in thermotolerant cells regulates the rate of synthesis of additional hsp70 in response to the subsequent heat challenge. Furthermore, the results showed that the rate of re-induction of hsp70 synthesis after a test heat shock can be used as a rapid measure of retained thermotolerance. This study suggests an approach for quantifying the level of retained thermotolerance during fractionated hyperthermia.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are synthesised by cells subsequent to a stress exposure and are known to confer protection to the cell in response to a second challenge. HSP induction and decay are correlated to thermotolerance and may therefore be used as a biomarker of thermal history. The current study tested the temperature-dependent nature of the heat shock response and characterised its time profile of induction. Whole blood from 6 healthy males (Age: 26 +/- (SD) 2 yrs; Body mass 74.2 +/- 3.8 kgs; VO(2max): 49.1 +/- 4.0 ml.kg(-1).min(-1)) were isolated and exposed to in vitro heat shock (HS) at 37, 38, 39, 40, and 41 degrees C for a period of 90 min. After HS the temperature was returned to 37 degrees C and intracellular HSP70 was quantified from the leukocytes at 0, 2, 4, and 6 h after heat treatment. The concentration of HSP70 was not different between temperatures (P > 0.05), but the time-profile of HSP70 synthesis appeared temperature-dependent. At control (37 degrees C) and lower temperatures (38-39 degrees C) the mean HSP70 concentration increased up to 4 h post HS (P < 0.05) and then returned towards baseline values by 6 h post HS. With in vitro hyperthermic conditions (40-41 degrees C), the time-profile was characterised by a sharp rise in HSP70 levels immediately after treatment (P < 0.05 for 40 degrees C at 0 h), followed by a progressive decline over time. The results suggest a temperature-dependent time-profile of HSP70 synthesis. In addition, the temperature at which HSP70 is inducted might be lower than 37 degrees C.

Abstract
We immunohistochemically studied expressions of inducible heat shock protein 70 (HSP 72) and apoptosis of corneas ablated with an ArF excimer laser. The temperature of corneal surfaces and laser-induced optical emission spectra were measured in real time as direct physical parameters related to the ablation mechanism. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there have been no experimental studies regarding the influence of physical parameters directly related to the ablation mechanism on corneal reactions at the cell level after laser ablation. The expression of HSP 72 was mainly localized in the regenerative epithelium, which was confirmed to be caused by laser ablation. The HSP 72 positive cell ratios had a correlation with thermal dose, which was derived from the measured time courses of temperature. Expressions of both HSP 72 and apoptosis depended on the thermal dose and elapsed time after ablation. HSP 72 and apoptosis could be seen up to a few hundred micrometers into the stroma, only at a fluence with an optical breakdown emission. This could have been caused by shock waves induced by the optical breakdown.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is known to activate heat shock (HS) response, which is characterized by overexpression of heat shock proteins (Hsps) under the control of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1). The potential protection provided by the HS response, induced by increasing the body temperature of animals before Cd exposure or by Cd itself, against pathophysiological changes occurring after Cd intranasal instillation (1 to 100 microg/mouse) was examined. HSF1-deficient mice were used to evaluate the role of this factor in lung protection. Cd instillation caused dose- and time-dependent changes in the respiratory pattern measured by plethysmography (Penh), and significant increases in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity as well as macrophage and neutrophil counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluids. HS preconditioning induced Hsp overexpression and reduced the Penh (-30%), LDH (-25%), and neutrophil (-55%) responses to subsequent administration of the highest Cd doses (50 and 100 microg) in wild-type mice. HSF1 deficiency abolished the HS response and its protective effect. In the absence of preconditioning, Hsf1(-/-) mice exhibited higher values of Penh (+70%) and LDH activity (+42%) compared with wild-type animals when exposed to the lowest Cd doses. Higher macrophage (+80%) and neutrophil counts (+115%) were recorded whatever the dose. Western blot analyses indicated that lung protection might be related to the kinetics of HSF1-dependent Hsp70 expression. Altogether, our data demonstrate that HS response elicited both by prior HS and by Cd itself moderates pulmonary injuries due to Cd instillation, and that HSF1 is a major mediator in this protection.

Abstract
The intentional induction of elevated body temperature to treat malignant lesions has its origins in the 18th century. The mechanism of heat-induced cell death is not clear; however, heat induces a variety of cellular changes. For heat to exert a therapeutic effect, pathogens (bacteria, viruses, or neoplastic tissues) need to be susceptible within temperature ranges that do not exert deleterious effects on normal tissues. Hyperthermia has been used successfully to treat isolated neoplastic lesions of the head and neck, regional tumors such as melanoma of the limb, and is under investigation as either an adjunct to, or therapy for, locally disseminated and systemic diseases. The clinical utility of perfusion hyperthermia has evolved into three approaches - isolated organ or limb, tumorous invasion of a cavity, and systemic or metastatic spread. When whole-body hyperthermic treatment has been tried, it has been induced in the patient by submersion in hot wax or liquid, wrapping in plastic, encasement in a high-flow water perfusion suit, or by extracorporeal perfusion. Our group has developed an extracorporeal method, veno-venous perfusion-induced systemic hyperthermia, that was used first to safely heat swine homogenously to an average body temperature of 43 degrees C for 2 h. More recently, a Phase I clinical trial has been completed in which all patients were safely heated to 42 or 42.5 degrees C for 2 h and survived the 30-day study period. We have been sufficiently encouraged by these results and are continuing to develop this technology.

Abstract
1. This study was conducted to determine the effect of early-age food restriction on heat shock protein (hsp) 70 synthesis in the brains of female broiler chickens exposed to high ambient temperatures. 2. Chicks were brooded for 3 weeks and then maintained at 24+/-1 degrees C. 3. On d 0, chicks were assigned to one of 4 feeding regimens; each regimen was applied to 4 cages of chicks. The regimens were: (1) ad libitum feeding (AL); (2) 80% food restriction at 4, 5 and 6 d of age (F80); (3) 60% food restriction at 4, 5, and 6 d of age (F60); and (4) 40% food restriction at 4, 5 and 6 d of age (F40). From d 35 to d 41, all chicks were subjected to 38+/-1 degrees C for 2 h/d. 4. One day following food restriction (d 7), hsp 70 expression in the brain samples of F60 and F40 chicks was augmented but not those fed AL and F80. 5. Prior to the heat challenge (d 35), all chicks had similar hsp 70 response. Irrespective of feeding regimen, there was a marked increase in hsp 70 expression after 4 d of heat treatment (d 38). Following 7 d of heat exposure (d 41), except for the F60 chicks, the augmented hsp 70 expression in the brains of AL, F80 and F40 birds was not maintained. 6. Enhancement of hsp 70 expression was noted in birds subjected to F60, but not AL, F80 or F40, throughout the period of heat exposure.

Abstract
SUMMARY
Molecular mechanisms of whole-body thermotolerance (WBT) in mammals have not been investigated thoroughly. The purpose of this study was to assess the induction of the 70 kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) and antioxidant enzyme activity in animal WBT, which was induced by whole-body hyperthermia (WBH) in mice. As a preconditioning treatment, WBH was applied to mice to induce WBT. Synthesis of inducible HSP70 (HSP70i) and quantification of its increased level in liver were investigated by one- and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. HSP70i synthesis in mice liver was induced by non-lethal WBH (41°C, 30 min). When compared to control animals, the level of liver HSP70i increased substantially (by 3.6-fold; P<0.0001). When exposed to 30 min of hyperthermia preconditioning, and after recovery for 48 h, the survival rate was 88.2 %, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (37.5 %; P<0.01). Moreover, the survival rate of animals subjected to preconditioning for 15 min was 72.2 %, which was also significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). In contrast, the survival rate of animals subjected to preconditioning for 45 min was 63.5 %, which was not different from the control group. Nonetheless, the protection index of the group subjected to 15 min and 30 min of preconditioning was 1.93 and 2.37, respectively. Furthermore, to assess their contributions to WBT, the activities of antioxidant enzymes were also measured. After 48 h of recovery in preconditioned animals, hepatic antioxidant enzyme activities, including superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase, had not changed significantly. To study the molecular mechanism of WBT, we successfully developed a mouse model and suggest that, rather than the activities of antioxidant enzymes, it is HSP70i that has a role to help animals survive during severe heat stress.

Abstract
Partial clones for two members of Leptinotarsa decemlineata inducible 70kDa heat shock protein family (LdHSP70A and B) were developed using RT-PCR. LdHSP70A, but not LdHSP70B, was upregulated during adult diapause. The ability of L. decemlineata to express these two genes in response to subzero temperatures depended on the thermal history of the beetles. Chilling diapausing beetles increased the rate at which both LdHSP70A and B were expressed following a cold shock at -10 degrees C. Following cold shock at -10 degrees C, LdHSP70B expression peaked after 3h at 15 degrees C for chilled diapausing individuals, decreasing to near background levels by the sixth hour. In contrast, nonchilled diapausing beetles expressed their highest level of LdHSP70B only after 6h at 15 degrees C. Diapausing beetles exposed to a thermoperiod with a mean temperature of either 0 or -2.5 degrees C expressed significantly higher levels of both LdHSP70A and B than beetles exposed to constant 0 or -2.5 degrees C. These results demonstrate that the expression of LdHSP70A and B is differentially regulated in response to diapause and environmental conditioning.

Abstract
Peripheral leukocyte heat shock proteins (HSP: HSP90, HSP70, and HSP23) from broiler chickens and turkey poults were induced by in vitro and in vivo high temperature exposure. Heat conditioning, via a daily 1 h exposure to 41 C, enhanced in vitro HSP expression in leukocytes from chickens heat-conditioned for 1 to 2 wk, and a similar response was found in turkey poults with 3 wk of heat conditioning causing the greatest HSP expression. In vivo heat exposure trials caused maximization of HSP expression after 1 wk of daily heat conditioning exposures in broilers, but no additional enhancement was seen in chickens heat conditioned for 2 wk. Enhancement in HSP expression was evident for periods up to 4 wk after termination of the daily heat conditioning episodes.

Abstract
The relationship between Hsp40/Hsp70 synthesis and the development of thermotolerance was investigated using mouse squamous cell carcinoma in vivo. To examine the thermotolerance, tumours were heated at 44 degrees C for 30 min as conditioning heating. After various intervals they were heated again at 44 degrees C for 90 min as challenge heating. The tumour response to heat was evaluated by the growth delay. Thermotolerance rapidly developed with increasing interval and reached a maximum at 12 h interval. Subsequently, thermotolerance gradually decayed and almost disappeared at 120 h interval. Under this condition, synthesis of Hsp40/Hsp70 increased after conditioning heating, reached a maximum at 12 h interval, then gradually decreased thereafter within 120 h. The kinetics of accumulation and decay of both Hsp40 and Hsp70 were very similar. The extent of thermotolerance was well correlated with the relative amount of Hsp40/Hsp70. These results obtained in vivo were very similar to those in vitro (Kaneko et al. 1995). Our findings suggest that Hsp40 could be a useful indicator of the degree of thermotolerance in addition to Hsp70 in vivo as in vitro.

Abstract
The existence of stressor-specific induction programs of heat shock proteins (hsps) leads us to analyze the possible occurrence of a stressor-specific tolerance induced by either heat shock, arsenite, or cadmium. As a measure of this tolerance re-induction of hsps was studied. In this paper, we tested whether the refractory state is either valid for each specific hsp (implying independent regulation of every member of the heat shock protein family) or extends from small subsets of the hsp-family to even larger groups of proteins (indicating a more common denominator in their regulation). (re-)induction of hsps does not seem to be regulated at the level of each individual hsp since differences in induced synthesis of hsps between two stressor conditions are not supplemented systematically upon the sequential application of the two stressors. The most notable example in this respect is hsp60. A pretreatment with cadmium, which hardly induces synthesis of this hsp, does induce a tolerance to (re)-induction by heat shock, which normally induces hsp60. This suggests the existence of a more common denominator regulating the coordinate expression of at least some hsps. From our data we conclude that the degree, but not the pattern, of hsp re-induction is influenced by the type of stressor used in the pretreatment. The pattern of hsps induced by a secondary applied stressor still shows most of its stressor-specificity and seems to be independent of any pretreatment. The possible implications of stressor-specificity are discussed.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) or stress proteins comprise a characteristic group of proteins synthesized in cells exposed to heat or other environmental stimuli. Of the many HSPs, the 72-kD heat shock protein (HSP72) is the most stress-inducible one. In the present study, we examined the effects of heat, chemicals (azetidine and sodium arsenite), ultraviolet (UV) light, and gamma-ray irradiation on the induction of HSP72 in cultured human skin melanoma cell lines (P-39 and G-361), a human skin squamous cell carcinoma cell line (HSC-1), and an SV40-transformed human lung fibroblast cell line (WI38VA13) as a control. In these cell lines, heat treatment induced HSP72 more rapidly and intensely than did chemical exposure. Compared with the SCC cell line, the two melanoma cell lines produced less HSP72 with heat treatment. UVC irradiation (20 J/m2) induced HSP72 only in the WI38VA13 cells. After gamma-ray irradiation, no HSP72 induction was detected in any of the cell lines examined. These observations suggest that, in cultured cells, inducibility of HSP72 depends not only on the inducer but also on the origin of each cell line.

Abstract
Induction of heat shock proteins (HSP) is generally regarded as a consequence of binding of the heat shock transcription factor (HSF) to heat shock elements (HSE), i.e. to be a single hit induction. The activation of HSF and the induction of HSP68 mRNA were studied in non pretreated Reuber H35 rat hepatoma cells in a thermosensitized and in a thermotolerant state. It was found that HSF in Reuber H35 hepatoma cells already acquires maximum DNA binding activity at temperatures that are too low to induce HSP68 mRNA. Directly following heat shock cells are in a transient thermosensitized state. In this state a second stress of lower impact leads to even higher production of HSP68, which corresponds with a decreased decay rate HSF-HSE binding. Directly following the thermosensitized state cells become refractory. In this period a second stress of the same impact does lead to HSF-HSE binding but the production of HSP68 mRNA is lowered, while only higher-impact stresses lead to high inductions of the said mRNA. The results indicate that regulation of HSP68 gene transcription involves at least one additional event outside the acquisition of DNA-binding activity by HSF and that this process can thus be described as a multiple-hit occurrence.

Abstract
H35 hepatoma cultures were adapted to sustained growth at 41.3 degrees C. In these variant cells the 'basic' levels of various heat shock proteins (hsps), especially those of hsp60, 70 and 100, are significantly raised. These cells exhibit a thermoresistance comparable with the induced thermotolerance in normal hepatoma cells heat shocked at 42.5 degrees C for 30 min. However, this resistance of variant cells shows a rapid, exponential decay with a half-time of 2.2 h when the temperature is lowered to 37 degrees C, with a concomitant decrease of the synthesis of hsp60 and 70. Heat shock experiments with variant cells grown at 41.3 degrees C lead to increased thermoresistance and synthesis of hsps when further incubation was performed at the original temperature but not at 37 degrees C. In the latter case, only a 3-h delay in the onset of decay of thermoresistance is observed. However, when the variant cells were incubated at 37 degrees C prior to heat stress normal induction of thermoresistance and hsp synthesis return inversely proportional to the progression of thermoresistance decay. Thermoresistant cells thus seem to be valuable tools in the study of the down-regulation of thermoresistance as well as of hsp synthesis.

Abstract
Mammalian cells, when exposed to a non-lethal heat shock, have the ability to acquire a transient resistance to subsequent exposures at elevated temperatures, a phenomenon termed thermotolerance. The mechanism(s) for the development of thermotolerance is not well understood, but earlier experimental evidence suggests that protein synthesis may play a role in its manifestation. On the molecular level, heat shock activates a specific set of genes, so-called heat shock genes, and results in the preferential synthesis of heat shock proteins. The heat shock response, specifically the regulation, expression and functions of heat shock proteins, has been extensively studied in the past decades and has attracted the attention of a wide spectrum of investigators ranging from molecular and cell biologists to radiation and hyperthermia oncologists. There is much data supporting the hypothesis that heat shock proteins play important roles in modulating cellular responses to heat shock, and are involved in the development of thermotolerance. This review summarizes some current knowledge on thermotolerance and the functions of heat shock proteins, especially hsp70. The relationship between thermotolerance development and hsp70 synthesis in tumours and in normal tissues is examined. The possibility of using hsp70 as an indicator for thermotolerance is discussed.

Abstract
During early development, elevated temperatures have deleterious effects on embryonic viability and development. The primary objective of the current study was to determine the ontogeny of induced thermotolerance during early murine embryonic development. Embryos were either retrieved from superovulated ICR female mice at the 2 cell and 4 cell stages and cultured thereafter or were retrieved from oviducts or uterine horns at the desired stage of development. Induction of thermotolerance was detected by evaluating viability and further development after embryos were exposed to homeothermic temperature (37 degrees C), mild heat shock (40 degrees C for 1 h), severe heat shock (42 degrees C for 1 h or 43 degrees C for 2 h), or mild heat shock followed by severe heat shock (to induce thermotolerance). Induction of thermotolerance was observed beginning at the 8 cell stage when embryos were developed in culture from the 2 cell to 4 cell stage. When embryos were developed in vivo (i.e., were retrieved from the reproductive tract at the desired stage of development), thermotolerance was not induced until the blastocyst stage of development. The induction of thermotolerance was dependent on serum supplementation since induction of thermotolerance was not observed when embryos were placed in medium without serum. Induced thermotolerance could also be demonstrated in bovine blastocysts. In conclusion, embryos acquire the ability to undergo thermotolerance as they progress through development. The timing of processes leading to acquisition of thermotolerance can, however, be hastened by exposure of embryos to in vitro conditions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although thermotolerance may be an important variable in clinical hyperthermia, few means have been described to measure its effect or duration in the clinical setting. This study was undertaken to determine if heat shock protein 70 could be used as an assay to predict the presence of retained thermotolerance in human tumors. METHODS AND MATERIALS Tissue samples were obtained from patients undergoing hyperthermia and assayed for heat shock protein 70 synthesis. Eight patients having advanced, persistent, or recurrent malignant tumors had open-ended thermometry catheters placed into the lesion being heated. Through these catheters, tissue samples were obtained using a fine needle aspiration technique. Attempts were made to obtain samples before and after the first three heat treatments. Some samples were labeled immediately with radioactive methionine (35S) at 37 degrees C for 4-8 hr, others were given a test heat dose in vitro and then labeled. Protein synthesis profiles were analyzed by gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. RESULTS Preliminary results show that it is possible to obtain tissue from hyperthermia patients in a safe and practical manner, that the rate of heat shock protein 70 synthesis can be measured in a variety of tumors, and that the persistence of thermotolerance in the clinical setting can be shown by the inability to reinduce heat shock protein 70 synthesis. CONCLUSION The measurement of heat shock protein 70 using the described technique may provide an assay for retained thermotolerance in clinical hyperthermia. Technical difficulties which need to be addressed include obtaining sufficient tissue in all patients, confirming the presence of tumor in the obtained tissue, and obtaining tissue at more frequent intervals to best determine the kinetics of thermotolerance.

Abstract
The effects of the combination of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (CCDP) and hyperthermia on tumour growth were examined using transplantable human oesophageal cancer (ESO-2), having a histological type of moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, in nude mice. Eighteen days after the inoculation of the tumour fragment into the subcutaneous tissue of the right hind foot, the treatment of CDDP and/or hyperthermia was performed and the antitumour effect was evaluated 21 days after the treatment. The combination of 4 mg/kg of CDDP and 43 degrees C heating for 30 min effectively depressed tumour growth in comparison with the individual treatment. The mean relative tumour weight of the combination group at 3 weeks after the treatment was 15% of that of the control group without treatment. On the other hand, pre-heating at 42 degrees C for 30 min did not influence the inhibition of tumour growth by CDDP alone or the concentration of CDDP in tumour. When pre-heating at 42 degrees C for 30 min was performed at 6 or 12 h prior to the combined treatments of 2 mg/kg of CDDP and 43 degrees C hyperthermia for 30 min, however, tumour growth depression by CDDP-hyperthermia was diminished. When pre-heating was performed 4 days prior to CDDP-hyperthermia, however, tumour growth depression occurred. These results showed that thermotolerance of tumour cells induced by pre-heating diminished hyperthermic potentiation for cytotoxicity of CDDP, though the thermotolerance did not affect the cytotoxicity of CDDP.

Abstract
Localized heating of the rat sciatic nerve over a length of 5 mm for 30 min at 43 degrees C resulted in the production of heat shock protein 72 kd in every nucleated cell and in the induction of thermotolerance in the heated area. HSP-72 kd was never detected in axons. Heat treatment (30 min, 45 degrees C) of thermotolerant nerves, 24 h after pretreatment, led to histopathological changes in the nerve, similar to those in non-thermotolerant nerves after a less strong treatment, i.e. heating for 30 min at 44 degrees C. Although axons did not contain HSPs after treatment at 43 degrees C, these structures tolerated treatment at 45 degrees C. Therefore we conclude that axons in the rat sciatic nerve are relatively heat-resistant and therefore we assume that axons do not need protection by HSPs; this is in contrast to endothelial cells and Schwann cells. Axons can be damaged indirectly as a consequence of vascular damage leading to ischaemia. Development of thermotolerance of the vasculature, ensuring a sufficient blood flow in the heated area, prevents this indirect damage.

Abstract
This study examined the hypothesis that transient, whole-body hyperthermia would reduce lung damage and/or mortality in a previously described animal model of acute lung injury. Normal, adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned either to a heated (n = 40) or to a sham-heated (n = 49) group. Heated animals were warmed to 41 to 42 degrees C 18 h before intratracheal instillation of phospholipase A2. Forty-eight hours after phospholipase A2 exposure, the two groups were compared in a blinded fashion for mortality rate, PaO2, AaPO2, lung wet/dry weight ratio, alveolar inflammatory cell number, and lung histopathology. Heated, injured animals exhibited a reduced mortality rate and less lung damage than did unheated animals: mortality (zero versus 27%, p < 0.001); AaPO2 (22 +/- 3 versus 36 +/- 15 mm Hg, p < 0.002); lung lavage cell counts (5.3 +/- 3 versus 16.9 +/- 7 x 10(6)/ml, p < 0.05); lung wet/dry weight ratio (4.1 +/- 0.6 versus 5.1 +/- 0.7, p < 0.025); parenchymal lung injury fraction (0.10 versus 0.51, p < 0.001). Transcription and translation of heat shock proteins (HSP70) were examined by Northern and Western analysis. Pulmonary tissue HSP70 mRNA was elevated 1 h after heating. HSP72 protein levels were increased over baseline levels between 12 and 72 h after whole-body hyperthermia, but they were unchanged in sham-heated animals. These data indicate that thermal pretreatment associated with the induction of HSP72 protein synthesis, attenuates tissue damage and mortality in experimental lung injury.

Abstract
The induction kinetics of the heat shock proteins hsp68, hsp70 and hsp84 were studied. Studies on hsp mRNA levels and protein synthetic rates, with or without the presence of actinomycin D, showed that regulation took place at the transcriptional level. Hsp mRNA induction was followed by a transient state of unresponsiveness. At the time point where the induced hsp mRNAs were decreasing again, hsp68, hsp70 and hsp84 mRNA could not be induced by a second, identical, heat shock. Hsp68 mRNA could be induced again 12-16 h after the first heat shock. Apparently, this state really seems to be a state of reduced sensitivity, since a higher heat dose could partially overcome this unresponsiveness.

Abstract
Using indirect immunofluorescence we have investigated the kinetics of nuclear accumulation and removal of hsp 70 in HA-1 Chinese hamster fibroblasts exposed to elevated temperatures. The kinetics of accumulation of hsp 70 in the nuclei were found to be time/temperature dependent at all temperatures tested (42-45 degrees C). At a given temperature, the fraction of cells manifesting nuclear localization of hsp 70 increased with exposure time. For a given duration of heating, the fraction of cells manifesting nuclear localization of hsp 70 increased with the temperature. The kinetics of the nuclear accumulation of hsp 70 were similar for normal HA-1 cells, their heat-resistant variants, and transiently thermotolerant cells (triggered by prior exposure to a brief heat shock or to sodium arsenite). Upon return to 37 degrees C after heat shock, the kinetics of removal of the hsp 70 associated with the nucleus was dependent on the severity of the initial heat challenge. However, for a given heat dose, the decay of nuclear localization of hsp 70 was more rapid in thermotolerant and heat-resistant cells than in their normal counterparts. These results suggest that the increased levels of hsp 70 associated with the transient or permanently heat-resistant state may play a direct role in restoring and/or repairing heat-induced nuclear and nucleolar alterations associated with heat-induced cell killing. Furthermore, they also suggest that the heat-resistant state may involve ameliorated repair of heat-induced cellular alterations.

Abstract
To study the induction of heat shock protein (HSP) of normal human skin, the indirect immunofluorescence method, using monoclonal antibody directed against 72-kD HSP, was applied in organ-cultured normal human skin that was treated with heat, UV, or chemicals. The present study provided new evidence that HSP 72 was induced not only by heat and chemical agents, such as L-azetidine 2-carboxylic acid, and sodium arsenite, but also by ultraviolet (UV B and C). The result suggests that normal human skin has an induced protective function against numerous environmental stresses.

Abstract
Recent data indicate that cells may acquire thermotolerance via more than one route. In this study, we observed differences in thermotolerance development in HeLa S3 cells induced by prior heating (15 minutes at 44 degrees C) or pretreatment with sodium-arsenite (1 hour at 37 degrees C, 100 microM). Inhibition of overall protein and heat shock protein (HSP) synthesis (greater than 95%) by cycloheximide (25 micrograms/ml) during tolerance development nearly completely abolished thermotolerance induced by arsenite, while significant levels of heat-induced thermotolerance were still apparent. The same dependence of protein synthesis was found for resistance against sodium-arsenite toxicity. Toxic heat, but not toxic arsenite treatments caused heat damage in the cell nucleus, measured as an increase in the protein mass of nuclei isolated from treated cells (intranuclear protein aggregation). Recovery from this intranuclear protein aggregation was observed during post-heat incubations of the cells at 37 degrees C. The rate of recovery was faster in heat-induced tolerant cells than in nontolerant cells. Arsenite-induced tolerant cells did not show an enhanced rate of recovery from the heat-induced intranuclear protein aggregation. In parallel, hyperthermic inhibition of RNA synthesis was the same in tolerant and nontolerant cells, whereas post-heat recovery was enhanced in heat-induced, but not arsenite-induced thermotolerant cells. The more rapid recovery from heat damage in the nucleus (protein aggregation and RNA synthesis) in cells made tolerant by a prior heat treatment seemed related to the ability of heat (but not arsenite) to induce HSP translocations to the nucleus.

Abstract
Withangulatin A is a newly identified in vitro topoisomerase II inhibitor isolated from the Chinese antitumor herb Physalis angulata. In vivo, it was found to be cytotoxic, capable of suppressing general protein synthesis and of inducing the synthesis of a small set of proteins including those generated by heat-shock treatment. The 70 kDa protein generated by withangulatin A was unequivocally identified as the heat-shock protein 70 (HSP70) since both proteins migrated to the same position on two-dimensional polyacrylamide gels, could be recognized by a monoclonal antibody to human HSP70, and exhibited identical peptide maps. The induction of protein synthesis by withangulatin A was regulated at the transcriptional level since it was aborted in cells pre-treated with actinomycin D. However, the initiation of this process did not require de novo protein synthesis since it was not affected by cycloheximide. Other cellular effect of withangulatin A was alterations of protein phosphorylation including an enhancement of phosphorylation of a 65 kDa protein which was also detected in the heat-shocked cells. Moreover, this process was observed within 7.5 min after the initial heat treatment which is much faster than the onset of HSP synthesis. Therefore, increased phosphorylation of the 65 kDa protein may represent one of the earliest signals generated by both heat-shock and withangluatin A and may be involved in the upstream regulation of heat-shock response in cells.

Abstract
A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been developed to quantitate the Hsp70 levels in bovine tissues. Antibodies that show specificity to the low molecular weight form of Hsp70 (72 kDa) were developed in chickens, isolated from egg yolks, and characterized using Western blotting. Using this assay, we were able to verify quantitatively the previous observation that the low molecular weight form of Hsp70 exists at elevated levels in bovine skeletal muscle. Also, we report that the skeletal muscle contains the majority of the Hsp70 in the sarcoplasm, but a small amount of Hsp70 is localized in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The amount of Hsp70 in bovine skeletal muscle is not at a maximal level because it can be increased by heat stress. The reliability, specificity, and use of enzyme-linked antibodies instead of radioactive materials make this assay preferable over previous quantitation techniques.

Abstract
Rat forebrain astrocytes synthesize heat shock proteins with molecular weights 97, 89, 70, 68, and 30-34 kilodaltons. The stress inducible 68-kDa heat shock protein (HSP-68) was vigorously expressed by astrocytes in culture after a 45 degrees C, 20 min heat shock. HSP-68 synthesis was poorly inducible by a second heat shock given 16 hr after the initial heat shock. Decreased [35S]methionine incorporation into HSP-68 correlated with low levels of HSP-68 mRNA present after the second heat shock. The data suggest that control of HSP-68 mRNA levels by transcriptional/posttranscriptional mechanisms is a major site for regulation of HSP-68 synthesis.
