Heat shock protein 90 mediates macrophage activation by Taxol and bacterial lipopolysaccharide
Open accessAbstract
Taxol, a plant-derived antitumor agent, stabilizes microtubules. Taxol also elicits cell signals in a manner indistinguishable from bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LPS-like actions of Taxol are controlled by the lps gene and are independent of binding to the known Taxol target, β-tubulin. Using biotin-labeled Taxol, avidin-agarose affinity chromatography, and peptide mass fingerprinting, we identified two Taxol targets from mouse macrophages and brain as heat shock proteins (Hsps) of the 70- and 90-kDa families. Geldanamycin, a specific inhibitor of the Hsp 90 family, blocked the nuclear translocation of NF-κB and expression of tumor necrosis factor in macrophages treated with Taxol or with LPS. Geldanamycin did not block microtubule bundling by Taxol or macrophage activation by tumor necrosis factor. Thus, Taxol binds Hsps, and Hsp 90 helps mediate the activation of macrophages by Taxol and by LPS.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
