Expression of Heat Shock Protein 70 mRNA in Epithelial Cells of Human Lens
Objective:To try to find out the pathogenesis of the cataract , effects of beat and oxidative stresson heat shock proteins of tissue cultured human lens epithelial cells (LEC-B3) were investigate& Methods:Cells were exposed to heat shock (45℃) and oxidative stress(5OmMH2O2 for 30 min, and then allowed to recoverat different intervals (Oh, 2h, 4h, 6h, 16h, 24h) in physiological medium Reverse transcription polymerasechain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to determined the level of HSP70. Results: HSPs existed in both physiologicaland stressful situation. The level of HSP7OmRNA increased 2h later after both stresses. The expression of HSP70got to the summit during 2h to 6h in each group. Subsequently it decreased gradually in each group, maintaininga high level at 16h. Conclusion: HSP70 exists in lens epithelial cells and can be induced after stress. Thedata suggested it may play an important protective role in lens epithelial cells in respond to cellular stress.
