The heat shock response (HSR) is a conserved cellular mechanism critical for adaptation to environmental and physiological stressors, with broad implications for cell survival, immune responses, and cancer biology. While the HSR has been extensively studied at the proteomic and transcriptomic levels, the role of lipid metabolism and membrane reorganization remains underexplored. Here, we integrate mass spectrometry-based lipidomics with RNA sequencing to characterize global lipidomic and transcriptomic changes in HeLa cells exposed to three conditions: control, heat shock (HS), and HS with eight hours of recovery.

The heat shock response (HSR), a critical component of the CSR, utilizes molecular chaperones to mitigate proteotoxic stress caused by elevated temperatures. We hypothesized that while the canonical HSR pathways are conserved across cell types, specific cell lines may exhibit unique transcriptional responses to heat shock.
