Besides their central function in protein folding and transport within the cell, heat shock proteins (HSP) have been shown to modulate innate and adaptive immune response: (1) HSP mediate uptake and MHC presentation of HSP-associated peptides by antigen-presenting cells (APC). (2) HSP function as endogenous danger signals indicating cell stress and...
