Examination of the effect of the natural plant extract, withaferin A, on heat shock protein gene expression in Xenopus laevis A6 cells

In eukaryotes, the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) degrades most cellular protein. Inhibition of the UPS has been associated with different disease states and can affect various intracellular processes including the activation of heat shock protein (hsp) gene expression. During cellular stress, HS...
