RESUMO
Heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) is a widely known mammalian stress-inducible protein critical for cytoprotection against different stressors. Despite the chaperone based cytoprotective functions, intracellular Hsp70 also participates in diverse immune modulatory activities. To investigate the immune modulatory effect of inducible bovine Hsp70, we examined the expression profile of four major pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) viz. TLR2/4 and NOD1/2 using two different invitro cell cultured models. We observed that, invitro acute heat stress and Geranylgeranylacetone (GGA) induction increased the level of Hsp70 which upregulated the expression of all the four PRRs in both the cell cultured models. However, the expression level of TLR4 was found to be highest followed by NOD2, TLR2 and NOD1. Conversely, specific siRNA based knockdown of Hsp70 showed a decreased expression level of all the four PRRs. This study may add some references pertaining to the innate immune modulatory effects of bovine heat shock protein 70.

The purpose of this study is to develop a novel Reverse Transcriptase Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) based assay for in vitro profiling of heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) in bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) culture model utilizing the absorbance level of magnesium pyrophosphate-a by-product of LAMP reaction. A set of bovine Hsp70 specific RT-LAMP primers were designed to detect the differential absorbance level of magnesium pyrophosphate by-product which signifies the degree of Hsp70 amplification from cDNA of thermally induced cultured cells at different recovery periods. The study revealed significant (P < 0.05) correlation between absorbance level and the fold change of Hsp70 transcripts at different kinetic intervals of heat stress recovery in bovine PBMC cell culture models. RT-LAMP based absorbance assay can be used as an indicator to measure the degree of bovine Hsp70 transcripts produced during thermal stress and can be used as an alternative to the traditional Real time PCR assay. Developed RT-LAMP assay can be used as a cost-effective method for profiling of bovine HSP70 gene.
