Overexpression of murine small heat shock protein HSP25 interferes with chondrocyte differentiation and decreases cell adhesion

Abstract: Although multiple functions for the small heat shock protein HSP25 have been proposed, its specific role during developmental and differentiation processes is not known. Cartilage is one of the tissues in which HSP25 is specifically and highly expressed during development. C1 cells, able to form aggregates in vitro, can be induced to differentiate into chondrocytes. In this study, we generated two stable transfected clones overexpressing HSP25 at two different levels. Cell morphology and growth rate were modif… Show more

“…Further evidence supporting this hypothesis has been obtained using ex vivo approaches (Spector et al 1994;Mehlen et al 1997;Davidson and Morange 2000;Favet et al 2001;Duverger et al 2004). Skin is one of the organs containing high levels of Hsp25, both in the adult and during embryonic development.…”

“…Intriguingly, enhancing chondrocyte Hsp25 lowers growth rate, modifies morphology, lessens adhesion and disrupts differentiation, but leaves actin distribution unaffected. These observations have implications for metastatic potential as reduced adhesion leads to cell release from tumors and spreading throughout the organism [144].…”

“…On the other hand, heterologous overexpression of sHSPs was reported to increase the tolerance of host cells against various stresses [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. Physiologically, the sHSPs of animals, as exampled by fly Hsp22, mammalian aA-crystallin and aB-crystallin, mouse Hsp25, human Hsp27 and Hsp22, have been linked to cell differentiation [24], apoptosis [25], and longevity [26], and their dysfunction has been related to many diseases such as cancer development [27], cardiovascular diseases [28,29], cataracts [30], myopathy [31], and neuron diseases [32,33].…”
