Myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury I/R adversely affects cardiac function. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a highly conserved family of proteins with diverse functions expressed by all cells exposed to environmental stress including myocardila injury. We investigated release of small constitutive heat shock proteins (HSPs) from mouse myocardium and the effects of TAT-HSP70 after myocardial I/R via occluding the left coronary artery (LAD). The results support the hypothesis that elevated HSPs in myocardium after ischemia and reperfusion and contributes to the inflammatory mechanism of myocardial functional injury. Further investigation of the significance of HSPs accumulation to the evolution of myocardial injury.

AbstractHeat Shock Proteins (HSP) belong to the family of intracellular proteins that are constitutively expressed and are upregulated by various stressors including heat, oxidative and chemical stress. HSP helps in reparative processes, including the refolding of damaged proteins and the removal of irreparably damaged proteins that would initiate cellular death or apoptosis. A growing body of evidence has expanded the role of HSP and defined their role in diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, ischemic heart disease and kidney diseases. The protective role of HSP in ischemic renal injury has been described and HSP impairment has been noted in other forms of kidney injuries including post-transplant situation. Further research into the role of HSP in prevention of kidney injury is crucial if translation from the laboratory to patient bedside has to occur. This article aims to be a review of heat shock protein, and its relevance to kidney diseases.
