Effect of ovariectomy and angiotensin II (AII)-induced hypertension on cardiac myofilament protein phosphorylation. a Representative of myofilament protein phosphorylation stained with Pro-Q diamond and total protein expression stained with Coomassie dye of ventricular samples from SHAM and OVX rats, with/without AII. b Relative amount of phospho-tropomyosin per total tropomyosin. c Relative amount of phospho-regulatory light chain per total regulatory light chain. Data are mean ± SE from 6 to 9 hearts of each group. *,†Significantly different (P < 0.05) from SHAM and SHAM + AII group at the same sarcomere length, respectively, using Student–Newman–Keuls test after ANOVA. MyBP-C myosin binding protein C, TnT troponin T, Tm tropomyosin, TnI troponin I, RLC regulatory light chain
