✦ Synopsis


Interferon (IFN) is not able to induce heat-shock protein (HSP) synthesis. However IFN pretreatment of mouse L cells has been shown to enhance the decrease of overall protein synthesis which follows a heat shock, and to stimulate the accumulation of HSPs. We show here that the synthesis of a protein (the hepatitis B virus surface antigen) under the control of a Drosophila HSP 70 promoter is also stimulated in IFN-pretreated cells. The regulation by IFN takes place at two levels: first, the rate of HSP gene transcription is increased in nuclei isolated from IFN-treated cells; second, the synthesis of HSPs is prolonged after pretreatment with IFN. Experiments performed in the presence of actinomycin D show that this effect is due to a stabilization by IFN of mRNAs coding for HSPs.

The influence of cell hydration and taurine on the heat shock response was studied in primary rat hepatocytes. Heat-induced accumulation of inducible heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) mRNA and protein was increased under hypoosmotic conditions. In contrast, hyper-osmotic exposure blocked the HSP70 respo

## Abstract The role of c‐Jun NH~2~‐terminal kinase (JNK) signaling cascade in the stress‐inducible phosphorylation of heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) was investigated using known agonists and antagonists of JNK. We showed that treatment of HeLa cells with MG132, a proteasome inhibitor and known JNK act
