| Abstract | Workers who are exposed to extreme heat or work in hot environments may be at risk of heat stress. Exposure to extreme heat can result in occupational illnesses and injuries. On the other hand, local and regional heat therapy has been used for the treatment of some cancers, such as liver cancer, lung cancer, and kidney cancer. Although heat stress has been shown to induce the accumulation of p53 protein, a key regulator of cell cycle, apoptosis, DNA repair, and autophagy, how it regulates p53 protein accumulation and what the p53 targets are remain unclear. Here, we show that, among various genotoxic stresses, including ionizing radiation (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation, heat stress contributes significantly to increase p53 protein levels in normal liver cells and liver cancer cells. Heat stress did not increase p53 mRNA expression as well as p53 promoter activity. However, heat stress enhanced the half-life of p53 protein. Moreover, heat stress increased the expression of puma and light chain 3 (LC-3), which are associated with the apoptotic and autophagic function of p53, respectively, whereas it did not change the expression of the cell cycle regulators p21, 14-3-3δ, and GADD45α, suggesting that heat-triggered alteration of p53 selectively modulates the downstream targets of p53. Our study provides a novel mechanism by which heat shock stimulates p53 protein accumulation, which is different from common DNA damages, such as IR and UV, and also provides new molecular basis for heat injuries or heat therapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
