Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a family of polypeptides which are induced in response to diverse forms of cell injury including hyperthermia, anoxia, ethanol, heavy metals, and others, with a presumably protective function. Among several species of HSPs, the 70 kD protein (HSP70) is the most abundan

In normal muscle, 65-kd heat shock proteins (hsp) were detected on capillary endothelial cells, the mural elements of larger vessels, and some intracellular organelles, probably mitochondria. In the inflammatory myopathies, the 65-kd hsp were detected on inflanunaxory cells, degenerating and regener
## Abstract ## Objective Adjuvant arthritis can be induced in Lewis rats by immunization with __Mycobacterium tuberculosis__ (Mt). The mycobacterial 65βkd heatβshock protein (Hsp65) is targeted by arthritogenic T cells. However, Hsp65 and the mycobacterial 71βkd heatβshock protein are also recogni
Previous study of rat liver during chemically induced hepatocarcinogenesis has shown that expression of isoforms of the 27-kD heat-shock protein was greater in neoplastic nodules and in hepatocellular carcinoma than in control livers. In this study, various human neoplastic and nonneoplastic liver t
