Effect of Exercise on the Expression of HSPBP1, PGLYRP1, and HSPA1A Genes in Human Leukocytes

The effects of 30-min medium-intensity exercise on the expression of genes encoding heat shock protein 70 (HSPA1A) and its cochaperones HSP-70-binding protein 1 (HSPBP1) and Tag7 (PGLYRP1) in human leukocytes were studied. Transcription activities of HSPA1A and PGLYRP1 genes increased immediately after medium-intensity exercise, while activity of HSPBP1 gene remained unchanged. During recovery after exercise, the expression of HSPA1A gene virtually did not change, while the expression of PGLYRP1 gene continued to increase and after 90 min more than 2-fold surpassed the basal level.
