Heat stress accelerated heat shock protein expression and NF- κB nuclear translocation but not NO production at 24 h pi. The heat shock response induced production of heat shock proteins (HSPs) (a), NF- κB p65 translocation (b), and immunoblot analysis of cytoplasmic and nuclear NF- κB p65 following heat exposure (c). Effect of heat stress on nitrite production as quantified by the Griess assay (d). Data represent the mean ± SD of triplicate experiments. (Scale bar = 5 μm)
