InnateDB Annotation
Summary
HSF1 activated by heat shock induces the expression of ATF3, a negative regulator of IL-6, and ATF3 is necessary for heat-mediated suppression of IL-6, indicating a fever-mediated feedback loop consisting of HSF1 and ATF3.
HSF1 is necessary to initiate host defence against Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in the lungs through TLR2 signalling activation. (Demonstrated in mice)
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Mus musculus] Hsf1 is necessary to initiate host defence against Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in the lungs through Tlr2 signalling activation.
Entrez Gene
Summary The product of this gene is a heat-shock transcription factor. Transcription of heat-shock genes is rapidly induced after temperature stress. Hsp90, by itself and/or associated with multichaperone complexes, is a major repressor of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
