Western blot analysis for detection of SERCA2 levels in WT and TG. Upper panel each representative band from three WT and three TG. Lower panel mean (+SD) fold change in the expression of SERCA2 protein in four WT and four TG. The densitometry measurements were performed on the whole band. The SERCA2 protein levels in TG were normalized to that of WT (=1.0) and expressed as fold change. The expression of SERCA2 protein in smooth muscles was significantly higher in TG (solid column) than that in WT (open column). **P < 0.001
