HSP90 plays an important role in maintaining molecular chaperone structure, regulating cell cycle and apoptosis, coordinating hormone signal transduction and promoting wound healing. And HSP90 also plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of tumors. In recent years, HSP90 inhibitors have made some achievements in molecular targeted therapy for malignant tumors, but further research is needed in clinical application. In this paper, the research status of the relationship between hepatocellular carcinoma targeted by heat shock protein 90 was reviewed.展开更多

It was found by Pearson test that serum HSP-90<i>α</i> was positively correlated with total PSA level (r = 0.659, P = 0.005), while negatively correlated with testosterone level (r = -0.549, P = 0.006). According to TNM stage of prostate cancer, there were 17 cases of stage I - II, 13 cases of stage III - IV, 6 cases of Gleason score 1 - 4, 13 cases of 5 - 7, 11 cases of 8 - 10, tumor diameter range from 0.8 to 6.2 cm, with average of (3.9 ± 1.5) cm. The relative expression of HSP-90<i>α</i> protein in tumor tissue was closely related to TNM stage, Gleason score and tumor diameter (P < 0.05). By ROC analysis, it was found that accuracy of combined detection of serum HSP-90<i>α</i> and PSA levels for prostate cancer diagnosis was 0.896, and that of single PSA detection was 0.852. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Higher expressions of HSP-90<i>α</i> in prostate cancer tissue and serum may be closely related to occurrence and development of prostate cancer, and combined detections of serum HSP-90<i>α</i> and PSA levels are of great significance in improving early diagnosis of prostate cancer.展开更多

Methods: In 18 healthy men, the seminal sperm motility and HSP90 levels were studied before and after cryopreservation using SDS-PAGE, Western blotting and computerized image analysis. Results: The sperm motility declined significantly after cryopreservation (P<0.01). The average grey level and the integrated grey level of sperm HSP90 before cooling were 34.1±3.2 and 243.0±21.6, respectively, while those after thawing were 23.2±2.5 and 105.7±28.5, respectively. Both parameters were decreased significantly (P<0.01). No HSP90 was found in the seminal plasma before and after cryopreservation. Conclusion: HSP90 in human spermatozoa was decreased substantially after cryopreservation. This may result from protein degradation, rather than leakage into the seminal plasma.展开更多

The intracellular HCV RNA and core levels were determined after the JFH1/HCVcc-infected Huh-7 cells were treated with radicicol for 36 h. The extracellular HCV RNA and core protein levels were determined from the medium of the last 24 h of radicicol treatment. To determine the possible role of the HSP90 inhibitor in HCV release, we examined the effect of a combined application of low doses of the HSP90 inhibitor radicicol and the RNA replication inhibitors cyclosporin A(Cs A) or interferon. Finally, we statistically examined the combined effect of radicicoland Cs A using the combination index(CI) and graphical representation proposed by Chou and Talalay.RESULTS: We found that the HSP90 inhibitors had greater inhibitory effects on the HCV RNA and core protein levels measured in the medium than inside the cells. This inhibitory effect was observed in the presence of a low level of a known RNA replication inhibitor(Cs A or interferon-α). Treating the cells with a combination of radicicol and cyclosporin A for 24 h resulted in significant synergy(CI < 1) that affected the release of both the viral RNA and the core protein. CONCLUSION: In addition to having an inhibitory effect on RNA replication, HSP90 inhibitors may interfere with an HCV replication step that occurs after the synthesis of viral RNA, such as assembly and release.展开更多

Our result showed that Hsp90 location in the tumor tissue was signiifcantly associated with the tumor cell and most in the cytoplasm of the tumor cell, and Hsp90 expression level in the tissue and the antibody titer level in the serum was most signiifcantly increased with the development of tumor.

METHODS: Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and HSP-90 were analyzed by immunofluorescence, western blotting and co-immunoprecipitation in the mesenteric vasculature and isolated nerves of portal-vein-ligated (PVL) rats and sham operated rats. In vitro perfused de-endothelialized mesenteric arterial vasculature was preconstricted with norepinephrine (EC80) and tested for nNOS-mediated vasorelaxation by periarterial nerve stimulation (PNS, 2-12 Hz, 45V) before and after incubation with geldanamycin (specific inhibitor of HSP-90 signalling, 3 μg/mL) or L-NAME (non-specific NOSblocker, 10-4 mol/L). RESULTS: nNOS and HSP-90 expression was significantly increased in mesenteric nerves from PVL as compared to sham rats. Moreover, nNOS and HSP-90 were visualized in mesenteric nerves by immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation of nNOS co-immunoprecitated HSP-90 in sham and PVL rats. PNS induced a frequencydependent vasorelaxation which was more pronounced in PVL as compared to sham rats. L-NAME and geldanamycin markedly reduced nNOS-mediated vasorelaxation abrogating differences between the study groups. The effect of L-NAME and geldanamycin on nNOS-mediated vasorelaxation was significantly greater in PVL than in sham animals. However, no difference in magnitude of effect between L-NAME and geldanamycin was noted. CONCLUSION: HSP-90 acts as a signalling mediator of nNOS-dependent nerve mediated vascular responses in mesenteric arteries, and the increased nitrergic vasorelaxation observed in portal hypertension is mediated largely by HSP-90.展开更多

The correlation analysis was performed between the SLE disease activity index （SLEDAI） and the expression of HSP90 and IL-6. The results show.ed that there was increased expression of HSP90 in the SLE patients. The active SLE group exhibited higher HSP90 levels （0.82±0.10） than the inactive SLE group （0.54±0.09） （P〈0.01）. The expression of HSP90 in normal control group （0.37±0.11） showed significant statistical difference as compared to both the inactive and active SLE groups （P〈0.01, P〈0.01, respectively）. The plasma level of IL-6 exhibited a significant increase in both the inactive and active SLE groups （28.99±1.74 pg/mL, 44.58±9.15 pg/mL, respectively） compared with normal control group （P〈0.01, P〈0.01, respectively）. The expression of HSP90 and IL-6 in SLE patients showed significant positive correlation with SLEDAI scoring （r=0.80, P〈0.01： r= 0.74, P〈0.01, respectively）. In addition, there was a positive correlation between the level of IL-6 and HSP90 in SLE patients （r= 0.86, P〈0.01）. The increased expression of molecular chaperone HSP90 and IL-6 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE by regulating autoimmunity.展开更多

文摘Heat shock proteins(Hsps)are a family of abundantly expressed ATP-dependent chaperone proteins.Hsp90 is an eminent member of Hsp family.Thus far,two primary functions have been described for Hsp90:first,as a regulator of conformational change of some protein kinases and nuclear hormone receptors,and the other as an indispensable factor in cellular stress response.Hsp90 has an essential number of interaction proteins since it participates in almost every biological process and its importance is self-evident.Hsp90 has an inextricable relationship in the pathogenesis of cancer,especially in the proliferation and irradiation of cancer cells,thus being a notable cancer target.Since the discovery of geldanamycin,the first inhibitor of Hsp90,from the bacterial species Streptomyces hygroscopicus,even more attention has been focused toward Hsp90.Many structure-based inhibitors of Hsp90 have been designed to develop an innovative method to defeat cancer.However,already designed inhibitors have various deficiencies,such as hepatotoxicity,poor aqueous solubility,instability,and non-ideal oral bioavailability.Based on the aforementioned reasons and to achieve an optimal performance and fewer side effects,we designed a novel inhibitor of Hsp90,called FS5,and resolved the crystal structure of the Hsp90^N-FS5 complex(1.65 A°,PDB code 5XRB).Furthermore,we compared the complexes Hsp90^N,Hsp90^N-GDM,and Hsp90^N-ATP and suggest that the inhibitor FS5 may compete with ATP for binding to Hsp90,which can be regarded as a potential strategy for the development of novel cancer drugs in the future.
文摘To explore the expression and clinical significance of molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 （HSP90） in peripheral blood mononuclear cells （PBMC） and plasma level of interleukin-6 （IL-6） in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus （SLE）, HSP90 was detected in PBMC by Western blot assay and the plasma level of IL-6 was measured by ELISA in 38 SLE patients and 20 normal controls. The correlation analysis was performed between the SLE disease activity index （SLEDAI） and the expression of HSP90 and IL-6. The results show.ed that there was increased expression of HSP90 in the SLE patients. The active SLE group exhibited higher HSP90 levels （0.82±0.10） than the inactive SLE group （0.54±0.09） （P〈0.01）. The expression of HSP90 in normal control group （0.37±0.11） showed significant statistical difference as compared to both the inactive and active SLE groups （P〈0.01, P〈0.01, respectively）. The plasma level of IL-6 exhibited a significant increase in both the inactive and active SLE groups （28.99±1.74 pg/mL, 44.58±9.15 pg/mL, respectively） compared with normal control group （P〈0.01, P〈0.01, respectively）. The expression of HSP90 and IL-6 in SLE patients showed significant positive correlation with SLEDAI scoring （r=0.80, P〈0.01： r= 0.74, P〈0.01, respectively）. In addition, there was a positive correlation between the level of IL-6 and HSP90 in SLE patients （r= 0.86, P〈0.01）. The increased expression of molecular chaperone HSP90 and IL-6 may play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE by regulating autoimmunity.
