Laszlo A: The thermoresistant state: protection from initial damage or better repair?. Exp Cell Res. 1992 Oct;202(2):519-31.
The induction of and recovery from heat-induced perturbations in several cellular parameters were examined in normal, transiently thermotolerant, and permanently heat-resistant HA-1 Chinese hamster fibroblasts. The initial heat-induced perturbations in total cellular protein synthesis, RNA synthesis, vimentin-containing intermediate filaments, and nuclear protein mass were similar in the three different cell types which display various levels of thermal resistance as determined by clonogenic survival. The posthyperthermia recovery from the heat-induced perturbations in all of the cellular parameters was more rapid in both the permanently heat-resistant cells and in the transiently thermotolerant cells. This response was observed in cells in which transient thermotolerance was induced by either a mild heat shock or exposure to sodium arsenite. The development and decay of the capacity for more rapid recovery from the initial heat-induced perturbations in total cellular protein and RNA synthesis paralleled the development and decay of clonogenic thermotolerance. Overall, these results support the notion that more rapid recovery from similar levels of heat-induced perturbations in various cellular parameters are a salient feature of both the transiently and permanently heat-resistant state. |
