The Hsp70.3 isoform of Hsp70, but not Hsp70.1, contributes to NF‐kappaB‐dependent cardioprotection of late ischemic preconditioning

It has been shown by our lab and others that the transcription factor NF‐κB is necessary for the development of the late window of protection after ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in the heart. However, the specific mechanisms and downstream gene expression profiles that underlie the cardioprotection of NF‐κB in late IPC remain unknown. To investigate NF‐κB‐dependent gene expression in IPC, we cond…
