The researchers found that this «practice run» induces heat shock responses in the coral that reduce their severity of bleaching and mortality. (sciencedaily.com)
However, by determining that protein translation is intimately connected to HSF1 activity, Whitehead scientists may have identified an approach to controlling cancer cells» overactive heat shock response. (wi.mit.edu)
Across tumor and cancer types, cancer cells rely on the heat shock response and HSF1 to support the production of vast quantities of proteins and the high - energy demands needed to propel malignancy. (wi.mit.edu)
