The cell proliferation activity, the contents of antioxidant enzymes in cell culture medium, and the contents of endoplasmic reticulum stress molecules in cells were determined.Results: After 6, 12, 18 and 24 h of treatment, CCK-8 proliferation activity values of hydrogen peroxide group were significantly lower than those of blank control group, CCK-8 proliferation activity values of 1, 2 and 4 μmol/L Ang1-7 groups were significantly higher than those of hydrogen peroxide group, and the larger the Ang1-7 dose, the higher the CCK-8 proliferation activity values;after 24 h of treatment, SOD, GSH-Px, HO-1 and CAT contents in cell culture medium of hydrogen peroxide group were significantly lower than those of control group, and GRP78, XBP1 and CHOP contents in cells were significantly higher than those of control group;SOD, GSH-Px, HO-1 and CAT contents in cell culture medium of 1, 2 and 4 μmol/L Ang1-7 groups were significantly higher than those of hydrogen peroxide group, GRP78, XBP1 and CHOP contents in cells were significantly lower than those of hydrogen peroxide group, and the larger the Ang1-7 dose, the more significant the changes of above molecules in cell culture medium and cells.Conclusion: Angiotensin 1-7 has protective effect on the endothelial cell injury caused by oxidative stress.展开更多
