From: Increased myocardial SERCA expression in early type 2 diabetes mellitus is insulin dependent: In vivo and in vitro data

Figure 3

In vivo data: Differences in sarcoplasmic reticular Ca2+ uptake in left ventricular homogenates prepared from (A) non-diabetic control rats (control) (n = 7), Zucker Diabetes Fatty (ZDF) rats (n = 7) and ZDF rats treated with insulin (ZDF + Ins, n = 6). (B) Relationship between calcium uptake and myocardial SERCA2a/PLB mRNA ratio. Ca2+ uptake was measured for 2 min in the presence of 3.68 μM free Ca2+ concentrations. Values are given as mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05 vs. control.
