Heat Shock Proteins and the Inflammatory Response
1 Sept 1998
Abstract excerpt
The heat shock proteins (HSPs) are important in the cellular response to stress and in cellular homeostatic functions such as protein synthesis and protein transport across membranes. An emerging body of data supports a role for HSPs in the inflammatory response, suggesting that HSPs participate in cytokine signal transduction and in the control of cytokine gene expression, that HSPs enhance antigen presentation...
