Summary of Ca2+ dynamic analysis using LC_Pro obtained from WT and SK3−/− endothelium. Ca2+ dynamics were analyzed using the automated Ca2+ detection program LC_Pro, including number of Ca2+ sites, total number of events, amplitudes (F/FO), duration, and spread of Ca2+ signal. WT: n = 14; SK3−/−: n = 9.

P < 0.05 comparing WT and SK3−/− using t-tests. A summary of each of these Ca2+ parameters in the presence of GSK is normalized to that prior to the application of GSK. n = 6 each. AUC, area under curve.
