Figure 8. The effect of incubation duration after one or eight hours of loading at 70% static strain on the relative level of heat shock response genes.

Figure 8

(a) HSP70, (b) HSF1, (c) HSP27, and (d) HSP90, and UPR genes: (e) GRP78, (f) GRP94, (g) ATF4, and (h) CHOP. The expression level of all the HSR genes except HSP27 increased with incubation duration after load removal. In contrast, expression level of all the UPR genes except GRP94 decreased with incubation duration after load removal. Asterisks indicate statistical difference (p < 0.05). In each case, the mean ± 2SE fold change of gene expression was normalized to the control without loading. n = 3 for each sample.
