Hypertrophic stimuli, such as strength training and exercise, induce the up-regulation of heat shock proteins (HSPs), called stress proteins, in skeletal muscles. However, the physiological roles for induction of HSPs in skeletal muscles are still not fully understood. Heat stress also up-regulates...
