Abstract:
:Activation of heat shock factors (Hsfs) is one of the potential mechanisms for regulating the transcription of the heat shock proteins (Hsps) and certain other stress-responsive genes. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blot and immunocytochemistry were used to examine the expression and localization of Hsf1, the stress-responsive member of the Hsf family, in the rat and mouse cochlea. Cerebellum was used as a positive control. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR of cochlear RNA revealed that Hsf1 was more highly expressed in a subfraction containing sensorineural epithelium and lateral wall than in a subfraction containing modiolus, with the alpha splice form predominant over the beta in both subfractions. Immunocytochemistry showed selective staining in the rodent cochlea. Hsf1 immunostaining was found in the nuclei of inner and outer hair cells in the organ of Corti, spiral ganglion cells in the modiolus, and cells in the marginal and intermediate layers of the stria vascularis. This is largely consistent with where Hsp70 induction is reported. Hsf1 activation following heat shock was examined by Western blot. Hyperthermia resulted in stress-induced Hsf1 hyperphosphorylation in cochlea as well as cerebellum. This hyperphosphorylation as well as the correlation of its localization with Hsp70 induction supports a role for Hsf1 in the cochlear stress response.
