## Abstract Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) regulate the expression of heat shock proteins and other molecular chaperones that are involved in cellular processes from higher order assembly to protein degradation and apoptosis. Among the human HSFs, HSF‐4 is expressed as at least two splice

Molecular mechanisms which underlie the heat shock response have commonly been analyzed using tissue culture systems, with less investigation of the intact mammal. In tissue culture, a temperature elevation of 5°C is required to activate mammalian heat shock transcription factor 1 (HSF1) to the DNA-
## Abstract Human brahma‐related gene 1(__Brg1__) is a subunit of the switching/sucrose non‐fermenting (SWI/SNF) chromatin‐remodeling complex and regulates transcription during cell growth and differentiation and has been found to be mutated in many types of human cancers. Mammalian heat shock fact
## Abstract Summary: Heat shock transcription factors (Hsfs) are major transactivators of heat shock protein (Hsp) genes in the response to stress stimuli, but are also thought to be involved in embryonic development and spermatogenesis. Among the three known mammalian Hsfs, Hsf1 is recognized as t
## 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
