Ophiopogonin D Increases SERCA2a Interaction with Phospholamban by Promoting CYP2J3 Upregulation

Figure 6

Effects of OPD on ER Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-ATPase activity in HF cells. (a) Effects of OPD on the Ca2+-ATPase activity measured by the quantity of Pi. The activity of SERCA2a was decreased in the ISO-treatment group, ## versus the control group; OPD (1 μmol/L) induced the Ca2+-ATPase activity, versus the ISO-treatment group. (b, c) Effects of OPD followed ISO (1 μM) on [Ca2+]SR. Application of 1 μM ISO indicated complete depletion of [Ca2+] in the SR compared with the control group, ###. Twenty-four hour application of OPD increased the Ca2+ uptake in ER, versus the ISO-treated group, per group.
