Effect of Delta-Sleep-Inducing Peptide on Expression of Heat Shock Protein 70 kDa in K562 Cells

Abstract

For evaluation of the stress-protective influence of delta-sleep inducing peptide we studied its effects on the system of heat-shock proteins in immune cells using the method of flow cytometry. The peptide affected the expression of heat-shock protein 70 kDa in cultured human myeloleukemia K562 cells. Delta-sleep-inducing peptide reduces accumulation of intracellular heat shock proteins 70 kDa in cells cultured under conditions of high density.
