CD91 (LRP/a2-macroglobulin receptor) CD91 has been shown to interact directly with gp96 and to mediate representation of peptides chaperoned by gp96 and other HSPs (22). In affinity-chromatography experiments, membrane extracts from APCs were applied to gp96-agarose columns and the bound protei...

hsp110 (6). The antigenic specificity of the HSPs was shown to derive
not from the HSP molecules per se, but from the peptides chaperoned
by them. First suggested in 1989–1991, this idea has been validated
through a large number of structural and immunological studies (see 7,
8 as examples). The mechanism, through which HSPs, or more accur-
ately HSP–peptide complexes, elicit anti-tumour and anti-viral
responses, has been delineated in some detail. The interaction of
HSPs with HSP receptors on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) lies at
the centre of this mechanistic understanding, and is the subject of this
critical review.
HSP–APC interaction has two distinct consequences (Fig. 1):
firstly, the HSP–peptide complexes are taken up by the APCs and
the peptides re-presented on MHC molecules of the APC (9, 10);
secondly, HSPs (regardless of chaperoned peptides) induce the secre-

Fig. 1. The interaction of heat-shock proteins (HSPs) with receptors on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) leads to two outcomes. In the
specific or adaptive outcome, HSP-chaperoned peptides are internalized by endocytosing receptors and the peptides are processed and presented on MHC
molecules of the APC. In the innate or peptide-non-specific outcomes, HSPs engage signalling receptors that trigger NF-kb activation. The APCs release
cytokines, chemokines and nitric oxide (NO) and upregulate the expression of co-stimulatory molecules and MHC-II.
