Research Abstract |
Mammalian hibernation is a seasonal phenomenon with a circannual rhythm, and molecular mechanisms that govern hibernation-associated gene regulation in a circannual manner are still unknown. In the chipmunk, a mammalian hibernator, HSP70 gene transcription in the liver is activated in nonhibernating animals, and repressed in hibernating animals. In this study, we analyzed the hibernation-associated transcriptional regulation of the HSP70 gene, and revealed that the protein levels of HSF-1 and HSF-2 oscillate between the nonhibernating and hibernating seasons, resulting in the hibernation-associated transcriptional regulation of the HSP70 gene.
