Heat-shock protein HSP70 reduces the secretion of TNFα by neuroblastoma cells and human monocytes induced with beta-amyloid peptides

Resumo

The progress of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease is closely associated with inflammatory processes in the brain tissues induced by beta-amyloid peptides (Aβ). In this paper, we showed that Aβ(1-42) and isoAβ(1-42) in human neuroblastoma cells SK-N-SH and promonocyte THP-1 activated the production of tumor necrosis factor (TNFα). Notably, isoAβ(1-42) had the strongest effect on the increase in the level of TNFα. The addition of recombinant heat-shock protein HSP70 reduces TNFα production induced by Aβ, which leads to a decrease in neuronal cell damage at the organism level.
