摘要
Heat- shock factor 1 ( HSF1) is a transcription factor that is activated upon proteotoxic stress and coordinates induction of the heat- shock response. In this issue, Dai et al. ( 2007) show that HSF1 is a potent modifier of tumorigenesis and is required for tumor initiation and maintenance in a variety of cancer models. These findings add HSF1 to a growing list of non- oncogenes that could be exploited as cancer drug targets.
