Heat-shock protein-70 (HSP70) is critical to the folding, stability, and activity of several client proteins including many responsible for cancer cell proliferation, apoptosis, drug toxicity, and metastasis. Up-regulation of HSP70 is positively associated with increased tumorigenicity as well as poor survival in colon cancer patients, supporting the diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potencies of HSP70 in colorectal cancer. The administration of specific pharmacological inhibitors or gene knock-down for HSP70 suppresses tumor progression and enhances tumor cell chemosensitivity. This review summarizes the different tumorigenic properties of HSP70 and the potential therapeutic potency of HSP70 inhibitors in terms of a novel strategy for colorectal cancer therapy, for a better understanding, and hence better management of this disease.
