Enhanced expression of Hsp70 is associated with tumorigenesis for breast cancer, endometrial cancer, gastric cancer, and acute leukemia; with poor prognoses.
-These adenosine triphosphatases unfold misfolded or denatured proteins and can keep these proteins in an unfolded, folding-competent state. They also protect nascently translating proteins, promote the cellular or organellar transport of proteins, reduce proteotoxic protein aggregates and serve general housekeeping roles in maintaining protein homeostasis.
-HSP70 family of proteins can be thought of as a potent buffering system for cellular stress, either from extrinsic (physiological, viral and environmental) or intrinsic (replicative or oncogenic) stimuli. As such, this family serves a critical survival function in the cell. Not surprisingly, cancer cells rely heavily on this buffering system for survival. The overwhelming majority of human tumors overexpress HSP70 family members, and expression of these proteins is typically a marker for poor prognosis.
-HSP70 helps cancer cells survive under stressful conditions, such as hypoxia or nutrient deprivation, by preventing protein misfolding and aggregation. This allows cancer cells to maintain their proliferative capacity.
-Tumor Progression: Elevated levels of HSP70 have been associated with tumor progression and metastasis.
