Fig. 3From: Human U87 glioblastoma cells with stemness features display enhanced sensitivity to natural killer cell cytotoxicity through altered expression of NKG2D ligandGBM cell sensitivity to NK cell lysis that occurs via NKG2D–NKG2DL interactions. a Cytotoxicity assays showing that GBM cells are sensitive to NK-mediated cell elimination using NKG2D blocking antibody at different E:T ratio. b Comparison of reduction rate between NBE U87 cells and serum U87 cells. The result showed that NK-mediated cell elimination effect using NKG2D blocking antibody is greater in NBE U87 cells, suggesting that the different cytotoxicity is mediated by NKG2D–NKG2DL interactionsBack to article page
