The phosphatase inhibitors okadaic acid and calyculin A were found to elicit or to modify several neutrophil responses, suggesting that dephosphorylation plays a regulatory role. The concentrations of okadaic acid (> or = 1 mumol/L) that were effective on neutrophil

The cell-permeable inhibitors of type 1 and 2A protein phosphatases, okadaic acid and calyculin-A, induced a redistribution of protein kinase C (PKC) activity and immunoreactivity (40 to 60%) from cytosol to membrane in some cell types. Calyculin-A was 100-fold more

The protein phosphatase inhibitors okadaic acid and calyculin A at moderate concentrations induced three types of apoptotic promyelocytic leukemia cell death, distinct with respect to ultrastructure and polynucleotide fragmentation. Calyculin A at higher concentrations (> 50 nM) induced a non-apoptotic

Glucocorticoids induce apoptosis in murine T cell hybridomas. It was inhibited by okadaic acid and calyculin A, potent inhibitors of protein phosphatase 1 and 2A, but not by 1-norokadaone, a structural analog of okadaic acid without phosphatase inhibitory activity. The
