Abstract

Hsp and other small proteins that function as an accessory chaperones interact with the cellular signaling network. They come up as an immediate response to stress when cells face the challenge of its own programmed death response. Chaperokines, with their inflammation and immune modulatory potential, try to strike the balance between recovery to normalcy and programmed death. Various disease pathways, environmental stresses, toxins and infections are the challenges that mount fatal stress. Resistin, an adipokine in murine model, small macrophage secreted protein in human and PPIases of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are the potential chaperokines. Though according to classical definition they do not fall under the category of HSP having α-crystalline domain, they function as small chaperone and are part of biological diversity where evolutionary conserved and adapted survival mechanisms work in parallel to protect and sustain life.
