Journal ArticleDOI

Necrotic but not apoptotic cell death releases heat shock proteins, which deliver a partial maturation signal to dendritic cells and activate the NF-κB pathway

TL;DR: It is reported here that heat shock proteins (HSP), the most abundant and conserved mammalian molecules, constitute such an internal signal that provides a unified mechanism for response to internal and external stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD91 is a common receptor for heat shock proteins gp96, hsp90, hsp70, and calreticulin.

TL;DR: It is shown here that complexes of peptides with heat shock proteins hsp90, calreticulin, and hsp70 are also taken up by macrophages and dendritic cells and re-presented by MHC class I molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat Shock Protein–Peptide Complexes, Reconstituted In Vitro, Elicit Peptide-specific Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Response and Tumor Immunity

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that HSPs are CD8+ T cell response–eliciting adjuvants that are immunologically active, as tested by their ability to elicit antitumor immunity and specificCD8+ cytolytic T lymphocyte response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat Shock Proteins Come of Age: Primitive Functions Acquire New Roles in an Adaptive World

TL;DR: It is conceivable that in a less polymorphic era, when adaptive immune response was but a distant gleam in the evolutionary eye, the interaction of HSPs with macrophage-like cells, leading to stimulation of the macrophages to secrete IL-1 and other messengers, was the primary “innate” defense mechanism.
