Heat and other acute or chronic stresses provoke multiple cellular reactions, including activation of the heat shock or stress protein response. To date, no compounds have become available that specifically activate, or block activation of, the stress protein response. At the transcriptional level the response is mediated by heat shock factors, ubiquitously expressed transcription factors that are normally...
