Abstract

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have demonstrated that heat-shock treatment results in the induction of 72-kD heat-shock protein (HSP72) and a reduction of infarct size after subsequent ischemia and reperfusion. METHODS AND RESULTS: To test the hypothesis that the degree of protection from ischemic injury in heat-shocked rats correlates with the degree of prior HSP72 induction, rats pretreated with 40 degrees C, 41 degrees C, or 42 degrees C of whole-body hyperthermia followed by 24 hours of recovery and control rats (n = 6 in each group) were quantitatively assessed for the presence of myocardial HPS72 by optical densitometry of Western blots and a primary antibody that is specific for HSP72 and a tertiary antibody labeled with 125I. Although rats heat-shocked to 40 degrees C had no significant induction of myocardial HSP72, rats heat-shocked to 41 degrees C and 42 degrees C demonstrated progressively increased amounts of myocardial HSP72 compared with controls. Separate groups of rats heat-shocked to 40 degrees C (n = 16), 41 degrees C (n = 37), and 42 degrees C (n = 36) with 24 hours of recovery and controls (n = 26) were subjected to 35 minutes of left coronary artery occlusion and 120 minutes of reperfusion. Compared with control and 40 degrees C rats, there was progressive infarct size reduction, assessed by triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining, in rats that were heat-shocked to 41 degrees C and 42 degrees C. Furthermore, there was a direct correlation between the amount of HSP72 induced and the reduction in infarct size (r = .97, P = .037). CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the improved salvage after heat-shock pretreatment may be related to the amount of HSP72 induced before prolonged ischemia and reperfusion.

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.
