This investigation has demonstrated for the first time the expression of hsp70 in a human model of GVHD, suggesting involvement in the pathogenesis of the disease and providing the basis for further investigation. Increased expression of inducible hsp70 in the model could provide a biologic marker for the prediction of clinical acute and chronic GVHD.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
