The 70 kDa heat shock proteins play important roles in protecting organisms against environmental stresses, which are divided into stress-inducible forms (HSP70s) and heat shock cognates (HSC70s). In this study, heat shock protein 70 family was identified in the whole genome of the silkworm. Based on the known nomenclature and phylogenetic analysis, four HSP70s and five HSC70s were classified. Relatively, heat shock cognates were more conservative and were constitutively expressed in various tissues of the silkworm larvae. Under thermal (37 °C and 42 °C) and cold (2 °C) stresses, the expressions of HSP70–1, HSP70–2, and HSP70–3 were up-regulated, and the highest induction reached 4147.3, 607.1, and 1987.3 times, respectively. Interestingly, HSC70–1, HSC70–4, and HSC70–5 also showed slight induced expressions in the fat body and/or midgut under thermal stresses. In addition, the expression of HSP70–1 was induced by dichlorvos and phoxim insecticides, while most HSC70 genes were inhibited. The results suggested that stress-inducible forms play more important roles in adaptation to various stresses than HSC70s.

In the present study, the ultrastructural changes of BPK cells, a fibroblast-like cell line, derived from the kidney of juvenile black porgy Acanthopagrus schlegeli, under heat shock treatment are described.The BPK cells were maintained in L-15 medium supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum and 0.15 M NaCl at 28|C2. The heating was carried out in precalibrated water baths. Monolayers of cells, grown on coverslips in parafilm-sealed petri dishes were submerged under water for 30 min at 40|C treatments. Cells were fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde in 0.1 M cacodylate buffer supplemented with 6.6% sucrose, postfixed in 1% OsO4 and flat embedded in Spurr’s resin. Silver section were cut parallel to the substratum, stained with uranyl acetate and Reynold’s lead citrate, and examined in a Hitachi H-600 electron microscope at 75 KV.

Apoptosis is a genetically defined response to physiological stimuli that results in cellular suicide. Features common to apoptotic cells include chromatin condensation, oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation, membrane blebbing, nuclear destruction, and late loss of ability to exclude vital dyes. These characteristics contrast markedly from pathological necrosis, in which membrane integrity loss is demonstrated early, and other features of apoptosis, which allow a non-inflammatory removal of dead and dying cells, are absent. Using heat shock-induced apoptosis as a model for examining stress response in cells, we undertook to categorize a variety of human leukemias and lymphomas with regard to their response to heat shock. We were also interested in determining whether a common temporal order was followed in cells dying by apoptosis. In addition, based on our previous results, we investigated whether increasing heat load resulted in increased apoptosis, with particular interest in relatively resistant cell lines, or whether the mode of death changed from apoptosis to necrosis.
