Figure 4From: In-Vitro effect of Ficus deltoidea on the contraction of isolated rat’s uteri is mediated via multiple receptors binding and is dependent on extracellular calcium The effect of IP3R blocker and SERCA inhibitor on FDA-induced uterine contraction. Representative image of isometric uterine contraction following administration of (a) oxytocin plus 2-APB, (b) FDA 2 mg/ml plus 2-APB, (c) oxytocin plus thapsigargin and (d) FDA 2 mg/ml plus thapsigargin while bar chart shows the Emax following oxytocin and FDA administration with and without the presence of 2-APB and thapsigargin. No significant difference was noted following 2-APB administration in the FDA treated group while thapsigargin caused a slight but significant increase in the Emax.Back to article page
