The effects of phenylephrine upon intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) in human cultured prostatic stromal cells. Cells were incubated with the FURA-2AM (5 μM) prior to the addition of phenylephrine. (a) Shows mean changes in [Ca2+]i over 30 min, in response to phenylephrine. (b) Shows concentration–response curve showing changes in [Ca2+]i 25 min after the addition of phenylephrine. In all cases n=6. *Significantly different when compared to vehicle control P<0.05; one-way ANOVA.
