Heat Shock Protein 70 Is Able to Prevent Heat Shock-Induced Resistance of Target Cells to CTL1

Heat shock or transfection with heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) genes has been shown to protect tumor cell lines against immune mechanisms of cytotoxicity. We have reported previously that heat shock confers resistance to CTL in the rat myeloma cell line Y3 that is Hsp70 defective. Evidence is now presented that Hsp70 is able to prevent the induction of the resistant phenotype. In Con A-stimulated lymphocytes and in lymphocyte x Y3 somatic cell hybrid clones a severe, non-Hsp70-inducing heat shock elicits resistance to CTL in contrast to a heat shock that results in Hsp70 expression. Thus, Hsp70 expression appears to be negatively associated with the development of resistance. Furthermore, loading of Y3 cells with recombinant Hsp70 protein before heat shock is able to prevent resistance. Because apoptosis induced in Y3 cells by heat shock is not affected, Hsp70 appears to interfere selectively with the CTL-induced lethal pathway that is found to be calcium but not caspase dependent. It is suggested that after heat shock Hsp70 enhances the CTL-induced apoptotic pathway by chaperoning certain proteins in the target cell that are involved in the execution of cell death. Thus, although shown to confer protection against many cytotoxic mechanisms, Hsp70 does not appear to be generally cytoprotective. This observation could also be of relevance when interpreting the effectiveness of tumor immunity.
