8917706 Wu W, Welsh MJ: Expression of the 25-kDa heat-shock protein (HSP27) correlates with resistance to the toxicity of cadmium chloride, mercuric chloride, cis-platinum (II)-diammine dichloride, or sodium arsenite in mouse embryonic stem cells transfected with sense or antisense HSP27 cDNA. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol. 1996 Nov;141(1):330-9.

Compared to the parental ES cell lines or ES cells transfected with the vector lacking any HSP27 sequence, all ES cell lines overexpressing HSP27 were resistant to killing by cadmium chloride (CdCl2), mercuric chloride (HgCl2), cis-platinum (II)-diammine dichloride (cDDP), sodium arsenite (NaAsO2), and heat while ES cell lines expressing reduced HSP27 were more sensitive to metal toxicity and heat.
