Abstract:
:In this study, we examined the effect of hydrogen peroxide on the accumulation of various mRNAs encoding heat shock proteins (hsps) and proto-oncogenes in Xenopus A6 kidney epithelial cells. Hydrogen peroxide treatment enhanced the accumulation of hsp90, hsp70, hsp30, c-jun, c-fos, and actin mRNAs with distinct temporal patterns. Although hsp70, c-fos, and c-jun mRNA levels peaked at 1-2 h before declining, hsp30 and hsp90 mRNA levels were maximal at 4-6 h. Other mRNAs, including heat shock cognate hsc70, immunoglobulin binding protein, and ribosomal L8, were unaffected. Treatment of kidney cells with a combination of mild heat shock plus hydrogen peroxide resulted in a synergistic increase in the relative levels of both hsp70 and hsp30 mRNA, but not hsp90, c-fos, c-jun, or actin. This study suggests that analysis of hsp and proto-oncogene mRNA levels may be of value as molecular biomarkers of oxidative stress associated with various disease states and nephrotoxicity in kidney.
