Male rats were trained in contextual fear conditioning task and HSP70 content was analyzed by western blot in the hippocampus at different time points. We observed rapid and transient elevations in HSP70 60min following training. Double immunofluorescence with GFAP and HSP72 revealed that astrocytes were not the site for HSP72 induction by CFC training.

Data suggest that heat stress enhances ovarian levels of Hsp70 and affects Erk1/2 and Atf3 phosphorylation levels, but not c-Akt activation/phosphorylation, in pseudo-pregnant rats during luteal regression induced by cloprostenol, a prostaglandin F2alpha analog. (Hsp70 = heat shock 70 kDa protein; Erk = extracellular signal-regulated kinase; Atf3 = activating transcription factor-3; c-Akt = proto-oncogene protein c-Akt)

The results showed that regular Hot-water immersion (HWI) resulted in lower HSP-70 expression than single HWI did in the organs, indicating that regular HWI caused less heat stress than single HWI.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
