It has been demonstrated that hyperthermia protects keratinocytes from ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced cell death in culture and in vivo. This effect is mediated by the antiapoptotic effect of heat shock proteins that are transiently induced after exposure to heat at sublethal temperatures. Consequently, induction of Hsp has been proposed as a novel means of photoprotection. However, in the face of daily UVB exposure of human skin in vivo, this approach would not be useful if keratinocytes become less sensitive to Hsp induction with repeated exposure to the inducing agent. The aim of this study was to investigate whether repeated exposure to hyperthermia or to the stress protein activating cyclopentenone prostaglandin 15-deoxy-delta(12,14)-prostaglandin J2 (15dPGJ2) leads to adaptation of the cells, attenuation of the heat shock response, and abrogation of the protective effect. Normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK) and the carcinoma-derived cell line A431 were exposed to either 42 degrees C or to 15dPGJ2 for 4 hours at 24-hour intervals for 4 consecutive days. The intracellular level of the 72-kDa heat shock protein (Hsp72) was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cells were exposed to UVB from a metal halide source after the last heat or 15dPGJ2 treatment, and survival was determined 24 hours after exposure by a MTT assay. Our results demonstrate that (1) heat shock and 15dPGJ2 are potent inducers of Hsp72 expression and lead to increased resistance to UVB-induced cell death in human keratinocytes; (2) re-exposure to heat shock leads to a superinduction without attenuation of the absolute increase in Hsp72 and of its UVB-protective effect; (3) the UVB tolerance induced by 15dPGJ2 is enhanced by repeated exposure without a further increase of Hsp72; (4) repeated heat shock and 15dPGJ2 up to a concentration of 1 microg/mL have no influence on cell growth over a period of 4 days. We conclude that through repeated exposure to Hsp-inducing factors, stress tolerance can be maintained without additional toxicity in human keratinocytes. These results provide a basis for the development of nontoxic Hsp inducers that can be repeatedly applied without loss of effect.
