Objective To study the relationship between the expression of NKG2D ligands and oxidative stress，and analyze the effect of oxidative stress on the function of NK cells. Methods Tumor cells were cultured and exposed to hydrogen peroxide to make an oxidative stress model. Then we detected the expression of NKG2D ligands in cells by Real-time PCR and Flow Cytometry. The cytotoxicity of NK cells to tumor cells was detected and compared by CCK-8 kit before and after oxidative stress. Results The expression of NKG2D ligands could be induced by oxidative stress，however the NKG2D ligands induced was variable. The up-regulation of NKG2D ligands increased the cytotoxicity of NK cells efficiently, and this effect could be blocked by anti-NKG2D antibody. Conclusion The expression of NKG2D ligands could be selectively induced by oxidative stress on tumor cells, and the improvement of the cytotoxicity of NK cells may enhance the immune responses accordingly.

Obiective　To investigate the effects of valsartan on the expression of connective tissue growth factor(CTGF)　in rat glomerular mesangial cells under high concentration of glucose .Methods　we used high concentration glucose and valsartan to stimulate the cultured rat glomerular mesangial cells in vitro. The protein expressions of CTGF and the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(p38 MAPK) and cAMP response element－bingding protein(CREB1) ) were observed by Western blot. CTGF and fibronectin(FN) mRNA were measured by reverse transcription and polymerase chain reaction (RT- PCR). The protein synthesis of lamanin (LN) and type IV collagen in the supernatants of the GMCs were detected by radioimmunoassay. Results　Compared with low glucose control group, the expression of CTGF,p-p38 MAPK, p-CREB1,CTGF mRNA, FN mRNA, LN and type IV collagen in the supernatants were significantly increased in GMCs under high concentration of glucose medium. The expression levels of CTGF,p-p38 MAPK,p-CREB1 ,CTGF mRNA and FN mRNA were significantly lower in the valsartan group than those in the high concentration glucose group. The concentrations of LN and type IV collagen in the supernatantsin the valsartan group were also lower than those in the hiagh concentration glucose group. Conclusion　 Valsartan can inhibit expression of CTGF and ECM proteins in rat glomerular mesangial cells under high concentration of glucose, partly by regulating the phosphorylation of P38 MAPK and CREB1 .
