Shock Response

Heat stress (HS) adversely affects several physiological responses in organisms, but the underlying molecular mechanisms involved are yet to be fully understood. L-Citrulline (L-Cit) is a nutraceutical amino acid that is gaining research interest for its role in body temperature regulation and nitric oxide synthesis. This study investigated whether dietary supplementation with L-Cit (1% of basal diet) could ameliorate the effects of acute HS on thermotolerance, redox balance, and inflammatory responses of broilers. Ross 308 broilers (288 chicks) were subjected to two environments; thermoneutral at 24°C (TNZ) or HS at 35°C for 5 h, and fed two diets; control or L-Cit. The results showed that HS increased the ear, rectal (RT), and core body (CBT) temperatures of broilers, along with higher respiratory rate. The RT and CBT readings were intermittently affected with time effect, whereas, L-Cit supplementation lowered the mean CBT than the control diet. Antioxidant assays showed that superoxide dismutase was increased during HS, while, catalase was promoted by L-Cit supplementation. In addition, L-Cit induced glutathione peroxidase activity compared to the control diet during HS. Hypothalamic heat shock protein (HSP)-90 was upregulated by HS, but L-Cit downregulated heat shock factor (HSF)-1, and HSP 60 mRNA expressions. HSF 3 mRNA expression was downregulated by L-Cit under TNZ condition. More so, HS increased the plasma nitric oxide (NO) concentration but lowered the total NO synthase (tNOS) activity. In contrast, L-Cit supplementation limited NO production but increased the tNOS activity. Arginase activity was increased in the control fed group during HS but L-Cit supplementation lowered this effect. The NOS-COX pathway was significantly affected under TNZ condition, since L-Cit supplementation downregulated the mRNA expression of iNOS-COX2 in the hypothalamus, and further reduced the serum PGE2 concentration. Together, these data indicates that L-Cit influenced the antioxidant defense, heat shock response and nitric oxide regeneration both under thermoneutral and HS conditions; and that L-Cit may be directly and/or indirectly involved in the central regulation of body temperature.

ABSTRACT Mycobacterium leprae, a major human pathogen, grows poorly at 37°C. The basis for its inability to survive at elevated temperatures was investigated. We determined that M. leprae lacks a protective heat shock response as a result of the lack of transcriptional induction of the alternative sigma factor genes sigE and sigB and the major heat shock operons, HSP70 and HSP60, even though heat shock promoters and regulatory circuits for these genes appear to be intact. M. leprae sigE was found to be capable of complementing the defective heat shock response of mycobacterial sigE knockout mutants only in the presence of a functional mycobacterial sigH, which orchestrates the mycobacterial heat shock response. Since the sigH of M. leprae is a pseudogene, these data support the conclusion that a key aspect of the defective heat shock response in M. leprae is the absence of a functional sigH. In addition, 68% of the genes induced during heat shock in M. tuberculosis were shown to be either absent from the M. leprae genome or were present as pseudogenes. Among these is the hsp/acr2 gene, whose product is essential for M. tuberculosis survival during heat shock. Taken together, these results suggest that the reduced ability of M. leprae to survive at elevated temperatures results from the lack of a functional transcriptional response to heat shock and the absence of a full repertoire of heat stress response genes, including sigH.

The heat shock response (HSR) provides protection against stress-induced damage, and also prevents initiation of inflammatory gene expression via inhibition of NFκB activation. This article describes experiments demonstrating that the HSR prevents induction of nitric oxide synthase type 2 (NOS2) in rat brain. Twenty four hours after intrastriatal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), IL-1β, and IFN-γ, NOS2 immunoreactive cells were detected in striatum, corpus callosum, and to a lesser extent in cortex. Induction of a HSR by whole body warming to 41°C for 20 minutes, done 1 day before LPS plus cytokine injection, reduced the number of NOS2-positive staining cells to background levels. Staining for ED1 antigen revealed that the HSR also suppressed microglial/brain macrophage activation in the same areas. Striatal injection of LPS and cytokines induced the rapid activation of NFκB, and this activation was prevented by prior HS, which also increased brain IκB-α expression. These results suggest that establishment of a HSR can reduce inflammatory gene expression in brain, mediated by inhibition of NFκB activation, and may therefore offer a novel approach to treatment and prevention of neurological disease and trauma.

Several known inducers of the heat shock response (heat stress, arsenite, and heavy metals) were shown to cause a significant elevation of c-fos mRNA in HeLa cells. Heat stress resulted in a time- and temperature-dependent prolonged elevation in the level of c-fos mRNA, which was accompanied by increased translation of c-fos protein and its appearance in the nucleus. Elevated expression of c-fos during heat stress was paralleled by induction of hsp 70 mRNA, while levels of c-myc and metallothionein mRNAs declined. Treatment of HeLa cells with arsenite or heavy metals also resulted in increased levels of hsp 70, as well as c-fos mRNA. Although elevated expression of c-fos was prevented by inhibitors of RNA synthesis, analysis of relative rates of gene transcription showed that during heat stress there was a negligible change in c-fos transcription. Therefore, the enhanced expression of c-fos during the heat shock response is likely to occur primarily through posttranscriptional processes. Cycloheximide was also shown to significantly increase the c-fos mRNA level in HeLa cells. There results are consistent with the observation that these inducers of the heat shock response, as well as cycloheximide, repress protein synthesis and suggest that the increase in the level of c-fos mRNA is caused by an inhibition of protein synthesis. This supports the hypothesis that c-fos mRNA is preferentially stabilized under conditions which induce the heat shock response, perhaps by decreased synthesis of a short-lived protein which regulates c-fos mRNA turnover.

The occurrence of heat-shock proteins (HSPs) in response to high temperature stress is a universal phenomenon in higher plants and has been well documented. However, in agriculturally important species, less is known about the expression of HSPs under natural environments. A review of the heat-shock response in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is presented and recent results on the expression of wheat HSPs under diurnal stress and field conditions are reported. In the field experiment, flag leaf blade temperatures were obtained and leaf blades collected for northern blot analysis using HSP 16.9 cDNA as a probe. Temperatures of leaf blades ranged from 32 to 35�C under the tested field conditions at New Deal near Lubbock, Texas. Messenger RNAs encoding a major class of low molecular weight HSPs, HSP 16.9, were detected in all wheat genotypes examined. The results suggested that HSPs are synthesised in response to heat stress under agricultural production, and furthermore, that HSPs are produced in wheats differing in geographic background. In the controlled growth chamber experiment, HSP expression in two wheat cultivars, Mustang (heat tolerant) and Sturdy (heat susceptible) were analysed to determine if wheat genotypes differing in heat tolerance differ in in vitro HSP synthesis (translatable HSP mRNAs) under a chronic, diurnal heat-stress regime. Leaf tissues were collected from seedlings over a time-course and poly (A)+RNAs were isolated for in vitro translation and 2-D gel electrophoresis. The protein profiles shown in the 2-D gel analysis revealed that there were not only quantitative differences of individual HSPs between these two wheat lines, but also some unique HSPs which were only found in the heat tolerant line. This data provides evidence of a correlation between HSP synthesis and heat tolerance in wheat under a simulated field environment and suggests that further genetic analysis of HSPs in a segregating population is worthy of investigation. In conclusion, the results of this study provide an impetus for the investigation of the roles of HSP genes in heat tolerance in wheat.
