Knockdown or overexpression of TRPC7 did not alter the expression of several important ion channels/pump in NRVMs. a–g Western blots showing the expression of a TRPC7, b HCN4, c Cav1.3, d IP3R1, e Cav3.1, f Cav3.2, g SERCA in NRVMs infected with different adenoviruses to knockdown or overexpress TRPC7. h–n Bar charts showing the quantification of each protein from a–g. To eliminate the loading bias, intensity of each target protein was normalized to that of its corresponding β-tubulin. TRPC7 was successfully knocked down or overexpressed in NRVMs but the change of TRPC7 expression did not alter the expression of HCN4, Cav1.3, IP3R1, Cav3.1, Cav3.2, and SERCA. Data were presented as mean ± SEM (n = 4). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 vs corresponding controls
