Effects of Lizhong Tang on cultured mouse small intestine interstitial cells of Cajal

Figure 6 Effects of chelerythrine or calphostin C (inhibitors of protein kinase C) on Lizhong Tang-induced pacemaker potentials in cultured interstitial cells of Cajal. A, B: Pacemaker potentials in interstitial cells of Cajal exposed to Lizhong Tang (30 mg/mL) in the presence of chelerythrine (1 μmol/L) or calphostin C (10 μmol/L). Lizhong Tang caused membrane depolarization in the presence of both inhibitors; C: The responses to Lizhong Tang in the presence of chelerythrine or calphostin C are summarized. Bars represent mean ± SE. CTRL: Control.
