Heat shock response, mediated by heat shock proteins, is a highly conserved physiological process in multicellular organisms for reestablishment of cellular homeostasis. Expression of heat shock factors and subsequent heat shock protein plays a role in protection against proteotoxicity in invertebrate and vertebrate models. Proteotoxicity due to β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) oligomerization has been linked to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Previously, we demonstrated that progressive paralysis induced by expression of human Aβ1-42 in transgenic C. elegans was alleviated by Aβ oligomer inhibitors ginkgo biloba extract and its constituents (Wu, et al., J. Neurosci 2006, 26:13102-13). In this study, we apply a protective heat shock to the transgenic C. elegans and demonstrate: 1) a remarkable delay in paralysis, 2) increased expression of small heat shock protein HSP16.2, and 3) significant reduction of Aβ oligomers in a heat shock time-dependent manner. These results suggest that transient heat shock lessens Aβ toxicity by diminishing Aβ oligomerization, which provide a link between up regulation of endogenous chaperone proteins and protection against Aβ proteotoxicity in vivo.
