Phosphatase inhibitors suppress Ca2+ influx induced by receptor-mediated intracellular Ca2+ store depletion in human platelets. Cell calcium, 1994, Volume: 15, Issue:5 The effects of three phosphatase inhibitors including okadaic acid, calyculin A and tautomycin were evaluated on platelet Ca2+ mobilization. Calyculin A and tautomycin at appropriate concentrations appeared to have a selective inhibitory effect on thrombin-induced Ca2+ influx, but not on [Ca2+]i release from intracellular Ca2+ storage sites. In contrast, pretreatment with okadaic acid at concentrations that effectively lowered Ca2+ influx also suppressed Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ stores. In a system that specifically evaluates the effects of agents on Ca2+ influx induced by the Ca(2+)-depleted state of intracellular Ca2+ storage sites, the three phosphatase inhibitors attenuated Ca2+ influx in a dose dependent manner and showed complete inhibition at appropriate concentrations. These findings suggest that protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation plays an important role in mediating signals to open Ca2+ channels when Ca2+ depletion in intracellular Ca2+ stores is caused by thrombin. In contrast, Ca2+ influx induced by thapsigargin, a Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor, was only partially suppressed by pretreatment with each of the three phosphatase inhibitors. Based on these findings, we suggest that the Ca(2+)-depleted state of intracellular Ca2+ stores by thapsigargin induces the opening of Ca2+ channels via phosphatase inhibitor-insensitive pathways. All the phosphatase inhibitors, at the highest concentrations tested in the present study, only partially inhibited Mn2+ entry induced by thrombin. These findings suggest that there are at least two types of divalent ion channels on platelet plasma membranes and that one of them, that preferentially allows Mn2+ entry, is resistant to the inhibitory effects of phosphatase inhibitors.
