Fig 1 Basal and β-agonist-stimulated myocardial sarcolemmal membrane adenylyl cyclase activity before (white bars) and after (black bars) cardiopulmonary bypass. *p < 0.05 between groups (n = 48 in each group). (ISO = isoproterenol; NaF = sodium fluoride.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2008 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 2 Myocardial sarcolemmal membrane β-adrenergic receptor density before (white bars) and after (black bars) cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). There was no statistical difference between groups (n = 48 in each group performed in triplicate; p > 0.05).

Fig 3 Myocardial G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK2) expression before (white bars) and after (black bars) cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). There was no statistical difference between groups (p > 0.05). n = 48 in each group. (+ = positive control for GRK2.)

Fig 4 Myocardial G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK2) activity before (white bars) and after (black bars) cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). *p < 0.05 versus before cardiopulmonary bypass (n = 48 in each group). (Rho = rhodopsin.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur ) Copyright © 2008 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 5 After cardiopulmonary bypass G protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK2) activity relative to before cardiopulmonary bypass (Pre-CPB). White bar is those with a left ventricular ejection fraction greater than 0.25 (n = 36); black bar is those with a left ventricular ejection fraction less 0.25 (n = 12). *p < 0.05.
