Heat Shock Proteins
Does anybody have any comments on some of the newer findings on Heat Shock Proteins(HSP)? It has been established that HSP are produced by individual cells in response to environmental stress. These proteins aid in protecting the cell from further damage. It is being theorized that HSP can also help protect cells from damage due to decompression illness. More recent studies are also finding that exercise in the 24 hr. period leading up to a dive can increase production of HSP and possibly help to protect you from DCI occurance. There are also other compounds being identified, such as the plant extract TEX-OE, that can also increase the production of HSP.
