| Abstract: | The stress response of eukaryotic cells is characterized by changes in the metabolism of responding cells, most notably by increased synthesis of a group of proteins known as heat shock (HSP) proteins In this paper the effect of prostaglandin A1 (PGA1), arsenite and aspirin in Aedes albopictus cells was investigated. In cells treated with PGA1 (10 microg/ml) we observed the induction of several polypeptides with molecular masses of 87, 80, 70, 57, 29 and 23 kDa. Immunoblot analysis revealed that arsenite induces a marked synthesis of HSP70, and aspirin administered during the hyperthermic treatment caused a small increase of HSP70 synthesized. |
