Effects from the induction of heat shock proteins in a murine model due to progression of aortic atherosclerosis

Abstract Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperones that repair denatured proteins. The relationship between HSPs and various diseases has been extensively studied. However, the relationship between HSPs and atherosclerosis remains unclear. In this study, we induced the expression of HSPs a...
