ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To assess the expression of Hsp72 and Hsp73 in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to evaluate their roles in damage from coal dust exposure.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A case control study of 50 coal miners suffering from COPD and 50 healthy coal miners were selected from one coal mine. The levels of Hsp72 and Hsp73 in peripheral blood lymphocytes were determined by flow cytometry for all subjects.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) The expression of basic Hsp72 of peripheral blood lymphocytes for patients and controls was not different from that inducible expressed Hsp72 by 42 degrees C heat stress or by BPDE exposure. (2) The expression of Hsp72 in COPD patients (17.7 +/- 4.9) was significantly lower than that in healthy coal miners (22.6 +/- 10.0) (P < 0.01). On the other hand, the expression of Hsp73 in COPD patients (33.5 +/- 11.7) was higher than that in healthy coal miners (19.6 +/- 5.9) (P < 0.01). (3) A-positive relationship between the expression of Hsp72 and cumulative inhaling coal dust exposure was observed. No relationship was found between Hsp73 and cumulative inhaling coal dust exposure.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The decreased expressions of Hsp72 in peripheral blood lymphocytes of COPD coal miners.</p>
