Effects of β-adrenergic stimulation on the beat-to-beat changes of
Ca2+-CaM signals. A–D, representative tracings
of Ca2+-CaM signals from cells expressing BsCaM-2 or BsCaM-45
without (control, A and C) or with β-adrenergic
stimulation using 1 μm Iso (+Iso, B and D).
E and F, superimposed normalized tracings of BsCaM-2,
BsCaM-45 and Ca2+ transients when cells were paced at 0.5 Hz under
control conditions (E) or 1 μm Iso (F).
G, averaged data of the Iso-induced signal decay time constant
(τ) of BsCaM-2, BsCaM-45, and Ca2+ transient. n =
5–6. *, p < 0.05 versus control.
