Induction of heat shock protein 70 genes in human lymphocytes during fever therapy

Abstract: The induction of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) genes has been studied in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of individuals undergoing fever therapy because of metastatic malignant melanoma. Induction of HSP70 was assessed at the protein level by metabolic labelling or, for the HLA-linked HSP70-1 and HSP70-2 genes, at the RNA level by in situ hybridization. However, de novo expression of HSP70 could be observed during fever (usually above 39 degrees C) in only about half of the cases. No simple threshold model … Show more

“…Hybridization of the mRNA probes for ␤-F 1 -ATPase (11), ANT 1 (36,44), and HSP70-1 (16) is similar to that observed in human (10,36,44), rat (11,35), mouse (16), or rabbit tissues (14) and is illustrated in Fig. 3.…”

“…␤-F 1 -ATPase mRNA levels were detected using a 1.8-kb cDNA fragment cloned from human HeLa cell line (ATCC) (11,36,46,47). HSP70-1 mRNA levels were detected using a 1.7-kb cDNA fragment cloned from human hippocampus (ATCC) (10,16,23,35). To compare different mRNA levels in the same myocardial sample, we analyzed aliquots of 15 µg total RNA from the myocardium by means of sequentially reprobing the membranes with 28S, ANT 1 , ␤-F 1 -ATPase, and HSP70-1 cDNA probes.…”

“…Induction of HSP70-1 and HSP70-2 was analyzed by in situ hybridization in lymphocytes from patients undergoing fever therapy for metastatic malignant melanoma. Lymphocytes assayed immediately before fever induction were negative, but lymphocytes collected 4-6 h later, i.e., at the temperature maximum of Ն39°C, showed HSP70 induction in one-half of the patients [Dressel et al, 1996]. In positive Fig.…”

“…Induction of heat shock response was tested in patients undergoing fever therapy for metastatic melanoma in the Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Göttingen [Dressel et al, 1996]. Lymphocytes were obtained (see above) after fever induction by injection of bacterial lysates, and induction of HSP70 genes was tested by in situ hybridization as described above.…”
