Heat-shock protein 27 (hsp27) is one of the small heatshock proteins. Its expression in ovarian-and breast-cancer cell lines has been associated with resistance to cisplatin and doxorubicin. In addition, hsp27 expression appears to facilitate cellular growth, differentiation and motility. In several

We previously reported that prostaglandin F 2โฃ (PGF 2โฃ ) activates both phosphoinositide-hydrolyzing phospholipase C and phosphatidylcholine-hydrolyzing phospholipase D in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells and then induces the activation of protein kinase C (PKC). In this study, we investigated the eff
This work was aimed at testing the hypothesis (hitherto supported only by indirect evidence) that, besides contributing to resistance to stress, the small heat-shock-protein HSP27 might be involved in the control of growth and differentiation in mammary-tumour cells, where it is known to be oestroge
Objective: The 70kD heat shock protein (Hsp70), induced when cells are subjected to environmental stress, prevents the denaturation and incorrect folding of polypeptides and may expedite replication and transmission of DNA and RNA viruses. We analyzed whether messenger RNA (mRNA) for Hsp70 was expre
