Abstract: Various studies have demonstrated an increase in heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) synthesis in the ischemic brain, suggesting a protective role for HSPs against ischemic insult. The HSPs family includes HSP90, HSP70, HSP60, HSP32, HSP27 and ubiquitin. Research progress on theses proteins in ischemic gerbil brain will be reviewed in this article.

Key words: HSP, ischemia, gerbil
