    Notes: Abstract It has been shown that okadaic acid (OA) diminishes insulin secretion of rat pancreatic islets in response to glucose, glyceraldehyde and KCl. Glucose, glyceraldehyde and KCl cause release of insulin by depolarization and subsequent opening of L-type calcium channels. Calcium entry into cells is thought to be related to protein phosphorylation. To evaluate whether or not OA mediated inhibition of insulin secretion in response to depolarization might be due to an interference with calcium uptake, we studied its effect on KCl (30 mM)-induced increases of cytosolic calcium and discharge of insulin in the insulin secreting clonal tumor cell line RINm5F. OA inhibited KCl-stimulated insulin release in concentrations ≥ 1 μM. In intact RINm5F cells similar concentrations of OA decreased the activity of protein phosphatases PP-1/PP-2A and inhibited the depolarization-induced rise of cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i). The latter action could also be achieved with the protein phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A, whereas the OA analogue 1-nor-okadaone, which is without effect on phosphatases, did not affect [Ca2+]i or insulin release. It is concluded that depression of depolarization-induced insulin secretion by OA is due to inhibition of calcium entry along voltage dependent calcium channels. The data also suggest that in RINm5F cells protein phosphatases PP-1/PP-2A are related to the function of voltage-dependent calcium channels.

    Notes: Abstract  It has been shown that okadaic acid (OA) diminishes insulin secretion of rat pancreatic islets in response to glucose, glyceraldehyde and KCl. Glucose, glyceraldehyde and KCl cause release of insulin by depolarization and subsequent opening of L-type calcium channels. Calcium entry into cells is thought to be related to protein phosphorylation. To evaluate whether or not OA mediated inhibition of insulin secretion in response to depolarization might be due to an interference with calcium uptake, we studied its effect on KCl (30 mM)-induced increases of cytosolic calcium and discharge of insulin in the insulin secreting clonal tumor cell line RINm5F. OA inhibited KCl-stimulated insulin release in concentrations ≧1 μM. In intact RINm5F cells similar concentrations of OA decreased the activity of protein phosphatases PP-1/PP-2A and inhibited the depolarization-induced rise of cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i). The latter action could also be achieved with the protein phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A, whereas the OA analogue 1-nor-okadaone, which is without effect on phosphatases, did not affect [Ca2+]i or insulin release.
