Heat Shock Protein-70 Levels Are Associated With a State of Oxidative Damage in the Development of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia.

ABSTRACT: Background: Heat shock protein-70 (Hsp-70) exhibits cytoprotective effects against oxidative stress-induced airway injury. This study aimed to examine Hsp-70 and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) from tracheal aspirates (TA) in very low-birth weight (VLBW) preterm infants to predict the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Methods: This birth cohort study enrolled 109 VLBW preterm infants, including 32 infants who developed BPD. Hsp-70 and 8-OHdG concentrations from TA were measured by immunoassay. The apoptosis of TA epithelial cells obtained on Day 28 after birth was measured using annexin-V staining assay. Results: Hsp-70 and 8-OHdG levels in TA fluid were persistently increased from Day 1 to Day 28 of life in the BPD group. Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that BPD was significantly associated with gestational age, respiratory distress syndrome, and TA Hsp-70 and 8-OHdG levels on post-natal Day 28. The TA Hsp-70 level positively correlated with TA 8-OHdG level on the Day 1 (r = 0.47) and Day 28 of life (r = 0.68). Incubation of recombinant Hsp-70 with primary epithelial cells derived from TA of patients decreased hydrogen peroxide-induced epithelial cell death. Conclusions: Hsp-70 levels are associated with a state of oxidative injury in the development of BPD.

Project description:BackgroundTransgenic mice have been used to examine the role of heat shock protein (HSP)72 in experimental heatstroke. Transgenic mice that were heterozygous for a porcine HSP70beta gene ([+] HSP72) and transgene-negative littermate controls ([-] HSP72), under pentobarbital sodium anesthesia, were subjected to heat stress to induce heatstroke. It was found that the overexpression of HSP72 in multiple organs improved survival during heatstroke by reducing hypotension and cerebral ischemia and damage in mice. Herein we attempted to further assess the effect of heat exposure on thermoregulatory function, hypothalamic integration, and survival in unrestrained, unanesthetized [+]HSP72 and compare with those of [-]HSP72. In this research with the transgenic mice, we first conducted several biochemical, physiologic and histological determinations and then investigated the beneficial effects of HSP72 overexpression on the identified hypothalamic deficits, thermoregulatory dysfunction, and mortality during heatstroke.ResultsWe report here that when [-]HSP72 mice underwent heat stress (ambient temperature 42.4 degrees C for 1 h), the fraction survival and core temperature at 4 h after heat stress were found to be 0 of 12 and 34.2 degrees C +/- 0.4 degrees C, respectively. Mice that survived to day 4 after heat stress were considered as survivors. In [+]HSP72 mice, when exposed to the same heat treatment, both fraction survival and core temperature values were significantly increased to new values of 12/12 and 37.4 degrees C +/- 0.3 degrees C, respectively. Compared to [-]HSP mice, [+]HSP72 mice displayed lower hypothalamic values of cellular ischemia (e.g., glutamate and lactate-to-pyruvate ratio) and damage (e.g., glycerol) markers, pro-oxidant enzymes (e.g., lipid peroxidation and glutathione oxidation), pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., interleukin-1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha), and neuronal damage score evaluated 4 h after heat stress. In contrast, [+]HSP72 mice had higher hypothalamic values of antioxidant defences (e.g., glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase), ATP, and HSP72 expression.ConclusionThis study indicates that HSP72 overexpression appears to be critical to the development of thermotolerance and protection from heat-induced hypothalamic ischemic and oxidative damage.
