From: Hyperglycaemia and oxidative stress upregulate HSP60 & HSP70 expression in HeLa cells
Relative HSP70 expression in cells treated with heat shock, glucose (100 mM), H 2 O 2 (200 μM), and sodium azide (50 μM) over both 3 and 7 days. All treatments and time periods give a significantly increased level of expression of HSP70 compared to control samples. (* represents statistically significant values, p < 0.05). The fold change in HSP70 expression is even across all treatments after 3 days followed by a dramatic rise in expression levels after 7 days, a similar trend to that seen in the DCFDA assay.
