During both mild and severe ischemia, vascular endothelial cells lining large and small vessels of the ischemic organ are exposed to oxygen-derived free radicals resulting in oxidative damage to the organ. Heat shock has been shown to induce thermotolerance and also protect against ischemic injury, possibly via increased synthesis of heat shock proteins (HSPs), We hypothesized that heat shock preconditioning may protect human endothelial cells against oxidative damage. Cultured human umbilical Vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were subjected to heat shock (42 degrees C, Ih) and allowed to recover for 2 or 20 h, at which times the cells were oxidatively stressed for Ih by exposing them to 100-200 mu mol/l of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Cellular damage was assessed immediately and 18 h later by morphology and release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). No protection of HUVEC was seen using the 2-hour recovery interval, but a significant protection (P
