Chronic administration of 100 mg/kg/day SAL markedly decreased whole-cell CaL current densities of cerebral VSMCs isolated from diabetic GK rats. Representative recording traces were used to show the whole-cell CaL currents (a) and the mean I-V curves were further expressed in terms of current densities (b) in WKY, WKY + SAL, GK, and GK + SAL rats. WKY: control WKY rats, WKY + SAL: control WKY rats administrated with 100 mg/kg/day SAL, GK: diabetic GK rats, GK + SAL: GK rats administrated with 100 mg/kg/day SAL. Values are means ± SEM with the number of cells recorded in parentheses. *P < 0.05 vs. WKY rats and #P < 0.05 vs. GK rats
