Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are conserved molecules whose main role is to facilitate folding
of other proteins. Most Hsps are generally stress-inducible as they play a particularly …

Sixteen years ago, the Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Pharmacology
approved a system for naming human seven-transmembrane (7TM) G protein-coupled …

Human infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis can progress to active disease, be
contained as latent infection, or be eradicated by the host response. Tuberculosis …

Men may not be able to multitask, but it is emerging that proteins can. This capacity of
proteins to exhibit more than one function is termed protein moonlighting, and, surprisingly …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) such as HSP 60 (Hsp60), Hsp70, Hsp90, and gp96, have been
reported to play important roles in antigen presentation and cross-presentation, activation of …

Biomarkers are indispensable to the development of new tuberculosis therapeutics and
vaccines. The most robust biomarkers measure factors that are essential to the underlying …

Immune responses to heat shock proteins (Hsp) develop in virtually all inflammatory
diseases; however, the significance of such responses is only now becoming clear. In …

Sixteen years ago, the Nomenclature Committee of the International Union of Pharmacology
approved a system for naming human seven-transmembrane (7TM) G protein-coupled …

Extracellular stress proteins including heat shock proteins (Hsp) and glucose regulated
proteins (Grp) are emerging as important mediators of intercellular signaling and transport …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are induced in response to many injuries including stroke,
neurodegenerative disease, epilepsy, and trauma. The overexpression of one HSP in …
