Fever is a cardinal response to infection that has been conserved in warm-blooded and cold-
blooded vertebrates for more than 600 million years of evolution. The fever response is …

Hyperthermia, one of the oldest forms of cancer treatment involves selective heating of tumor
tissues to temperatures ranging between 39 and 45° C. Recent developments based on the …

Heat shock proteins (Hsps) are overexpressed in a wide range of human cancers and are
implicated in tumor cell proliferation, differentiation, invasion, metastasis, death, and …

Local tumour hyperthermia for cancer treatment is currently used either for ablation
purposes as an alternative to surgery or less frequently, in combination with chemotherapy …

The use of peptides as therapeutics is experiencing renewed enthusiasm owing to
advances in delivery, stability and design. Moreover, there is a growing emphasis on the use …

Success of tumor photothermal immunotherapy requires a system that induces heat stress in
cancer cells and enhances strong anti-tumor immune responses. Here, we designed a …

The hallmarks of hyperthermia and its pleotropic effects are in favour of its combined use
with chemotherapy. Preclinical research reveals that for heat killing and synergistic effects …

Intracellular residing heat shock proteins (HSPs) with a molecular weight of approximately
70 and 90 kDa function as molecular chaperones that assist folding/unfolding and transport …

Hyperthermia (HT) is one of the hot topics that have been discussed over decades.
However, it never made its way into primetime. The basic biological rationale of heat to …

Extracellular stress proteins including heat shock proteins (Hsp) and glucose regulated
