ABSTRACT
The transcription factor HSF-1 (heat shock factor 1) acts as a master regulator of heat shock response in eukaryotic cells to maintain cellular proteostasis. The protein has a protective role in preventing cells from undergoing ageing, and neurodegeneration, and also mediates tumorigenesis. Thus, modulating HSF-1 activity in humans has a promising therapeutic potential for treating these pathologies. Loss of HSF-1 function is usually associated with impaired stress tolerance. Contrary to this conventional knowledge, we show here that inactivation of HSF-1 in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans results in increased thermotolerance at young adult stages, whereas HSF-1 deficiency in animals passing early adult stages indeed leads to decreased thermotolerance, as compared to wild-type. Furthermore, a gene expression analysis supports that in young adults, distinct cellular stress response and immunity-related signaling pathways become induced upon HSF-1 deficiency. We also demonstrate that increased tolerance to proteotoxic stress in HSF-1-depleted young worms requires the activity of the unfolded protein response of the endoplasmic reticulum and the SKN-1/Nrf2-mediated oxidative stress response pathway, as well as an innate immunity-related pathway, suggesting a mutual compensatory interaction between HSF-1 and these conserved stress response systems. A similar compensatory molecular network is likely to also operate in higher animal taxa, raising the possibility of an unexpected outcome when HSF-1 activity is manipulated in humans.
