ConT does not change cellular Ca2+ handling during reperfusion. The change in diastolic Ca2+
(A), Ca2+ transient amplitude (B), Ca2+ transient decay constant (τCa, C), and diastolic cell length (D;
n=24) normalized to pI conditions. Changes are shown for ischemic (I) conditions and reperfusion (R) for Ctrl (n=12) and ConT (n=12)-treated cells after 1 min (1′R) and 15 min (15′R). (E) Representative stimulation induced changes in cell length from a Ctrl (top) and a ConT (bottom)-reperfused cell. (F) Caffeine transient amplitude during pI and reperfusion (R) in Ctrl (F) and ConT (G)-reperfused VMs, (*P<0.05 compared with pI; &P<0.05 compared with ConT).
