The inhibitory effect of a marine-sponge toxin, okadaic acid, was examined on type 1, type 2A, type 2B and type 2C protein phosphatases as well as on a polycation-modulated (PCM) phosphatase. Of the protein phosphatases examined, the catalytic subunit of type 2A phosphatase from rabbit skeletal muscle was most potently inhibited. For the phosphorylated myosin light-chain (PMLC) phosphatase activity of the enzyme, the concentration of okadaic acid required to obtain 50% inhibition (ID50) was about 1 nM. The PMLC phosphatase activities of type 1 and PCM phosphatase were also strongly inhibited (ID50 0.1-0.5 microM). The PMCL phosphatase activity of type 2B phosphatase (calcineurin) was inhibited to a lesser extent (ID50 4-5 microM). Similar results were obtained for the phosphorylase a phosphatase activity of type 1 and PCM phosphatases and for the p-nitrophenyl phosphate phosphatase activity of calcineurin. The following phosphatases were not affected by up to 10 microM-okadaic acid: type 2C phosphatase, phosphotyrosyl phosphatase, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate phosphatase, acid phosphatases and alkaline phosphatases. Thus okadaic acid had a relatively high specificity for type 2A, type 1 and PCM phosphatases. Kinetic studies showed that okadaic acid acts as a non-competitive or mixed inhibitor on the okadaic acid-sensitive enzymes. 相似文献

S6 phosphatase activities, which dephosphorylate the phosphorylated S6 synthetic peptide, RRLSSLRASTSKSESSQK, were purified to near homogeneity from the membrane and cytosolic fractions of the rat parotid gland. Multiple S6 phosphatases were fractionated on Mono Q and gel filtration columns. In the cytosolic fraction, at least three forms of S6 phosphatase, termed peaks I, II, and III, were differentially resolved. The three forms had different sizes and protein compositions. The peak I enzyme, which had an approximately Mr of 68 kDa on gel filtration, appears to represent a dimeric form of the 39 kDa protein. This S6 phosphatase showed the high activity in the presence of EGTA and was completely inhibited by nanomolar concentrations of either okadaic acid or inhibitor 2. The peak II S6 phosphatase enzyme, with an Mr of 35 kDa, was activated by Mn2+. This form could be a proteolytic product of the catalytic subunit of type 1 phosphatase, due to its sensitivities to okadaic acid and inhibitor 2. The peak III enzyme, with an Mr of 55 kDa, is a Mn2+-dependent S6 phosphatase. This S6 phosphatase can be classified as a type 1 phosphatase, due to its sensitivity to okadaic acid, since the IC50 of okadaic acid is 4 nM. However, the molecular mass of this S6 phosphatase differs from that of the type 1 catalytic subunit (37 kDa) and showed less sensitivity to inhibitor 2. On the other hand, the membrane fraction contained one form of the S6 phosphatases, termed peak V (Mr 34 and 28 kDa), which could be classified as a type 1 phosphatase. This S6 phosphatase activity was greatly stimulated by Mn2+.Abbreviations PP1-C

Extracts of Brassica napus (oilseed rape) seeds contain type 1 and type 2A protein phosphatases whose properties are indistinguishable from the corresponding enzymes in mammalian tissues. The type 1 activity dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase selectively and was inhibited by the same concentrations of okadaic acid [IC50 (concentration causing 50% inhibition) approximately 10 nM], mammalian inhibitor 1 (IC50 = 0.6 nM) and mammalian inhibitor 2 (IC50 = 2.0 nM) as the rabbit muscle type 1 phosphatase. The plant type 2A activity dephosphorylated the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase preferentially, was exquisitely sensitive to okadaic acid (IC50 approximately 0.1 nM), and was unaffected by inhibitors 1 and 2. As in mammalian tissues, a substantial proportion of plant type 1 phosphatase activity (40%) was particulate, whereas plant type 2A phosphatase was cytosolic. The specific activities of the plant type 1 and type 2A phosphatases were as high as in mammalian tissue extracts, but no type 2B or type 2C phosphatase activity was detected. The results demonstrate that the improved procedure for identifying and quantifying protein phosphatases in animal cells is applicable to higher plants, and suggests that okadaic acid may provide a new method for identifying plant enzymes that are regulated by reversible phosphorylation. 相似文献

Biochemical properties of neuronal protein phosphatases from Aplysia californica were characterized. Dephosphorylation of phosphorylase alpha by extracts of abdominal ganglia and clusters of sensory neurons from pleural ganglia was demonstrated. Type-1 protein phosphatase (PrP-1) was identified in these extracts by the dephosphorylation of the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase and its inhibition by the protein, inhibitor-2. Type-2A protein phosphatase (PrP-2A) was demonstrated by the dephosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase, which was insensitive to inhibitor-2. As in vertebrate tissues, only four enzymes, PrP-1 (47%), PrP-2A (42%), PrP-2B (11%), and PrP-2C (less than 1%), accounted for all the cellular protein phosphatase activity dephosphorylating phosphorylase kinase. Aplysia PrP-1 and PrP-2A were potently inhibited by okadaic acid, with PrP-1 being approximately 20-fold more sensitive than PrP-2A. By comparison, purified PrP-2A from rabbit skeletal muscle was 15- to 20-fold more sensitive to okadaic acid than PrP-1 from the same source. Only PrP-1 was associated with the particulate fractions from Aplysia neurons, whereas PrP-1 and PrP-2A, -2B, and -2C were all present in the cytosol. Extraction of the particulate PrP-1 decreased its sensitivity to okadaic acid by sixfold, suggesting that cellular factor(s) affect its sensitivity to this inhibitor. In most respects, protein phosphatases from Aplysia neurons resemble their mammalian counterparts, and their biochemical characterization sets the stage for examining the role of these enzymes in neuronal plasticity, and in learning and memory. 相似文献

The involvement of protein phosphatases in regulating platelet activation was studied. The major portion of the phosphorylase phosphatase activity found in platelet lysates appears to be of the type 1 variety. The identification of this enzyme was based on the finding that greater than 80% of protein phosphatase activity was inhibited by the heat-stable inhibitor protein inhibitor 2 and, while only 20% of the phosphorylase phosphatase activity in platelet extracts was inhibited by 2 nM okadaic acid, greater than 95% of the activity was inhibited in the presence of 1 microM okadaic acid. Increases in protein phosphorylations occurred and thrombin-induced release of serotonin was prevented as a result of artificially inhibiting the enzyme with okadaic acid in intact platelets. This implies either that the regulation of okadaic acid sensitive protein phosphatases is necessary for some agonist-induced effects or that okadaic acid sensitive phosphatases are required for maintaining platelets in a responsive state. 相似文献

Autophosphorylation of ataxia-telangiectasia mutated is regulated by protein phosphatase 2A 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Ionizing radiation induces autophosphorylation of the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein kinase on serine 1981; however, the precise mechanisms that regulate ATM activation are not fully understood. Here, we show that the protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid (OA) induces autophosphorylation of ATM on serine 1981 in unirradiated cells at concentrations that inhibit protein phosphatase 2A-like activity in vitro. OA did not induce gamma-H2AX foci, suggesting that it induces ATM autophosphorylation by inactivation of a protein phosphatase rather than by inducing DNA double-strand breaks. In support of this, we show that ATM interacts with the scaffolding (A) subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), that the scaffolding and catalytic (C) subunits of PP2A interact with ATM in undamaged cells and that immunoprecipitates of ATM from undamaged cells contain PP2A-like protein phosphatase activity. Moreover, we show that IR induces phosphorylation-dependent dissociation of PP2A from ATM and loss of the associated protein phosphatase activity. We propose that PP2A plays an important role in the regulation of ATM autophosphorylation and activity in vivo. 相似文献

The protein B-50 is dephosphorylated in rat cortical synaptic plasma membranes (SPM) by protein phosphatase type 1 and 2A (PP-1 and PP-2A)-like activities. The present studies further demonstrate that B-50 is dephosphorylated not only by a spontaneously active PP-1-like enzyme, but also by a latent form after pretreatment of SPM with 0.2 mM cobalt/20 micrograms of trypsin/ml. The activity revealed by cobalt/trypsin was inhibited by inhibitor-2 and by high concentrations (microM) of okadaic acid, identifying it as a latent form of PP-1. In the presence of inhibitor-2 to block PP-1, histone H1 (16-64 micrograms/ml) and spermine (2 mM) increased B-50 dephosphorylation. This sensitivity to polycations and the reversal of their effects on B-50 dephosphorylation by 2 nM okadaic acid are indicative of PP-2A-like activity. PP-1- and PP-2A-like activities from SPM were further displayed by using exogenous phosphorylase alpha and histone H1 as substrates. Both PP-1 and PP-2A in rat SPM were immunologically identified with monospecific antibodies against the C-termini of catalytic subunits of rabbit skeletal muscle PP-1 and PP-2A. Okadaic acid-induced alteration of B-50 phosphorylation, consistent with inhibition of protein phosphatase activity, was demonstrated in rat cortical synaptosomes after immunoprecipitation with affinity-purified anti-B-50 immunoglobulin G. These results provide further evidence that SPM-bound PP-1 and PP-2A-like enzymes that share considerable similarities with their cytosolic counterparts may act as physiologically important phosphatases for B-50. 相似文献

Protein phosphatases regulate DNA-dependent protein kinase activity 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a complex of DNA-PK catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) and the DNA end-binding Ku70/Ku80 heterodimer. DNA-PK is required for DNA double strand break repair by the process of nonhomologous end joining. Nonhomologous end joining is a major mechanism for the repair of DNA double strand breaks in mammalian cells. As such, DNA-PK plays essential roles in the cellular response to ionizing radiation and in V(D)J recombination. In vitro, DNA-PK undergoes phosphorylation of all three protein subunits (DNA-PK catalytic subunit, Ku70 and Ku80) and phosphorylation correlates with inactivation of the serine/threonine protein kinase activity of DNA-PK. Here we show that phosphorylation-induced loss of the protein kinase activity of DNA-PK is restored by the addition of the purified catalytic subunit of either protein phosphatase 1 or protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) and that this reactivation is blocked by the potent protein phosphatase inhibitor, microcystin. We also show that treating human lymphoblastoid cells with either okadaic acid or fostriecin, at PP2A-selective concentrations, causes a 50-60% decrease in DNA-PK protein kinase activity, although the protein phosphatase 1 activity in these cells was unaffected. In vivo phosphorylation of DNA-PKcs, Ku70, and Ku80 was observed when cells were labeled with [(32)P]inorganic phosphate in the presence of the protein phosphatase inhibitor, okadaic acid. Together, our data suggest that reversible protein phosphorylation is an important mechanism for the regulation of DNA-PK protein kinase activity and that the protein phosphatase responsible for reactivation in vivo is a PP2A-like enzyme. 相似文献

There is evidence that phosphatidylcholine (PC) biosynthesis in hepatocytes is regulated by a phosphorylation-dephosphorylation mechanism. The phosphatases involved have not been identified. We, therefore, investigated the effect of okadaic acid, a potent protein phosphatase inhibitor, on PC biosynthesis via the CDP-choline pathway in suspension cultures of isolated rat hepatocytes. Okadaic acid caused a 15% decrease (P less than 0.05) in [Me-3H]choline uptake in continuous-pulse labeling experiments. After 120 min of treatment, the labeling of PC was decreased 46% (P less than 0.05) with a corresponding 20% increase (P less than 0.05) in labeling of phosphocholine. Cells were pulsed with [Me-3H]choline for 30 min and subsequently chased for up to 120 min with choline in the absence or presence of okadaic acid. The labeling of phosphocholine was increased 86% (P less than 0.05) and labeling of PC decreased 29% (P less than 0.05) by 120 min of chase in okadaic acid-treated hepatocytes. The decrease of label in PC was quantitatively accounted for in the phosphocholine fraction. Incubation of hepatocytes with both okadaic acid and CPT-cAMP did not produce an additive inhibition in labeling of PC. Choline kinase and cholinephosphotransferase activities were unaltered by treatment with okadaic acid. Hepatocytes were incubated with digitonin to cause release of cytosolic components. Cell ghost membrane cytidylyltransferase (CT) activity was decreased 37% (P less than 0.005) with a concomitant 33% increase (P less than 0.05) in released cytosolic cytidylyltransferase activity in okadaic acid-treated hepatocytes. We postulate that CT activity and PC biosynthesis are regulated by protein phosphatase activity in isolated rat hepatocytes. 相似文献

The cellular events leading to cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid haemorrhage are poorly understood, although an increase in smooth muscle myosin light chain phosphorylation has been observed. This study set out to determine if phosphatase inhibition may be involved in the pathological maintenance of tension observed during vasospasm. We found that 1 nM okadaic acid, a type 2A protein phosphatase inhibitor, elicited an increase in rate of O(2) consumption in the porcine carotid artery similar to that by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from vasospastic patients (CSF(V), n=5) (control 0.23+/-0.03, CSF(V) 0.84+/-0.16 and okadaic acid 0.85+/-0.02 micromol min(-1) g dwt(-1)). It was also observed that phosphatase inhibition with 1 nM okadaic acid significantly slowed relaxation after a stretch in a similar fashion to CSF(V) haemorrhage. CSF from vasospastic subarachnoid haemorrhage patients, but not from those without vasospasm, contains an extractable substance which modulates myosin light chain phosphorylation in vitro. A phosphatase preparation obtained from the porcine carotid artery dephosphorylated 63+/-2% of the phosphorylated (MLC(20)) substrate in vitro, and non-vasospastic CSF treated enzyme dephosphorylated 60+/-2.6%. Okadaic acid inhibited phosphatase dephosphorylated only 7.5+/-1% of the substrate where CSF(V) treated enzyme dephosphorylated 22+/-2.8% of the substrate. We conclude that inhibition of smooth muscle phosphatase may be involved in the mechanisms associated with cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid haemorrhage. 相似文献

The effect of preincubation of rat liver post-mitochondrial supernatant with NaF and okadaic acid on the subcellular distribution of CTP: phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase activity was investigated. NaF (20 mM) inhibited the time-dependent activation of cytidylyltransferase activity in post-mitochondrial supernatant. Subcellular fractionation of the post-mitochondrial supernatant revealed that cytidylyltransferase activity in the microsomal fraction was decreased and activity in the cytosolic fraction increased with time of preincubation with NaF compared to controls. Okadaic acid is a specific and potent inhibitor of type 1 and 2A phosphoprotein phosphatases. Preincubation of cytosol with 5 microM okadaic acid inhibited the time-dependent activation of cytosolic cytidylyltransferase activity. Preincubation of post-mitochondrial supernatants with 5 microM okadaic acid inhibited the time-dependent activation of cytidylyltransferase activity by 13% at 45 min and 16% at 60 min of preincubation compared to controls. Microsomal cytidylyltransferase activity was decreased 27% at 45 min and 31% at 60 min with a corresponding retention of cytosolic cytidylyltransferase activity of 21% at 45 min and 37% at 60 min of preincubation with okadaic acid compared to controls. We postulate that the activity of the type 1 and/or type 2A phosphoprotein phosphatases affect the subcellular distribution of CTP: phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase activity in rat liver. 相似文献

The catalytic subunits of bovine platelet protein phosphatases were separated into three distinct forms by chromatography on heparin-Sepharose. Each phosphatase was further purified to apparent homogeneity as judged in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel yielding single protein bands of 37, 41, and 36 kDa. The 37-kDa phosphatase was excluded from heparin-Sepharose and preferentially dephosphorylated the alpha-subunit of phosphorylase kinase. It was stimulated by polycations (polybrene or histone H1) and was inhibited by okadaic acid (IC50 = 0.3 nM), but its activity was not influenced by inhibitor-2 or heparin. The 41-kDa phosphatase was eluted from heparin-Sepharose by 0.20-0.25 M NaCl and preferentially dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase. It was stimulated by polycations and inhibited by okadaic acid (IC50 = 2 nM), but its activity was not affected by inhibitor-2 or heparin. The 36-kDa phosphatase was eluted from heparin-Sepharose by 0.45-0.50 M NaCl and preferentially dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase. It was inhibited by inhibitor-2, heparin, histone H1, and okadaic acid (IC50 = 70 nM). The 37- and 36-kDa phosphatases can be classified as type-2A and type-1 enzymes, respectively. The 41-kDa phosphatase does not precisely fit the criteria of either type, showing only partial similarities to both type-1 and type-2A enzymes and it may represent a novel type of protein phosphatase in bovine platelets. 相似文献

Treatment of adipocytes with okadaic acid (a specific inhibitor of type 1 and 2a protein phosphatases) resulted in a rapid 8-10-fold stimulation of cell extract myelin basic protein (MBP) kinase activity (t1/2 = 10 min) and kinase activity toward a synthetic peptide RRLSSLRA (S6 peptide) (t1/2 = 5 min). Insulin brought about a smaller stimulation of these two activities (t1/2 = 2.5 min). MBP kinase activity from cells treated with okadaic acid or insulin was resolved by anion exchange chromatography into two well defined peaks; S6 peptide kinase activity was less well resolved. The two partially purified MBP kinases were inactivated by the protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 or by protein phosphatase 2a (PP-2a). In contrast, partially purified S6 peptide kinase activity was inactivated only by PP-2a or protein phosphatase 1 (PP-1). Furthermore, a 38-kDa protein which co-eluted with one peak of MBP kinase and a 42-kDa protein which co-eluted with the other peak of MBP kinase were phosphorylated on tyrosine after treatment with okadaic acid. These findings illustrate several important points concerning regulation of MBP and S6 peptide kinases. First, these protein kinases are regulated by phosphorylation, and, second, in the absence of hormonal stimuli their activities are strongly suppressed by protein phosphatases. Lastly, the increased tyrosine phosphorylation accompanying the activation of MBP kinases following okadaic acid treatment suggests a role for PP-2a in events that are mediated by tyrosine phosphorylation. 相似文献

(i) The major sites on bovine adrenal tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) phosphorylated by calmodulin-dependent multiprotein kinase (CaM-MPK) and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase were shown to be Ser-19 and Ser-40, respectively, while Ser-40 was also phosphorylated slowly by CaM-MPK. (ii) Type 2A and type 2C phosphatases accounted for approximately 90% and approximately 10% of TH phosphatase activity, respectively, in extracts of adrenal medulla and corpus striatum assayed at near physiological free Mg2+ (1 mM), while type 1 and type 2B phosphatases had negligible activity towards TH. (iii) Incubation of adrenal chromaffin cells with okadaic acid increased TH phosphorylation by 206% and activity by 77%, establishing that type 2A phosphatases play a major role in regulating TH in vivo. 相似文献

Canine cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles contain intrinsic protein phosphatase activity, which can dephosphorylate phospholamban and regulate calcium transport. This phosphatase has been suggested to be a mixture of both type 1 and type 2 enzymes (E. G. Kranias and J. Di Salvo, 1986, J. Biol. Chem. 261, 10,029-10,032). In the present study the sarcoplasmic reticulum phosphatase activity was solubilized with n-octyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside and purified by sequential chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, polylysine-agarose, heparin-agarose, and DEAE-Sephadex. A single peak of phosphatase activity was eluted from each column and it was coincident for both phospholamban and phosphorylase a, used as substrates. The partially purified phosphatase could dephosphorylate the sites on phospholamban phosphorylated by either cAMP-dependent or calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase(s). Enzymatic activity was inhibited by inhibitor-2 and by okadaic acid (I50 = 10-20 nM), using either phosphorylase a or phospholamban as substrates. The sensitivity of the phosphatase to inhibitor-2 or okadaic acid was similar for the two sites on phospholamban, phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent and the calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinases. Phospholamban phosphatase activity was enhanced (40%) by Mg2+ or Mn2+ (3 mM) while Ca2+ (0.1-10 microM) had no effect. These characteristics suggest that the phosphatase associated with cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum is a type 1 enzyme, and this activity may participate in the regulation of Ca2+ transport through dephosphorylation of phospholamban in cardiac muscle. 相似文献

Phorbol myristate acetate inhibits okadaic acid-induced apoptosis and downregulation of X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis in U937 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Okadaic acid is a specific inhibitor of serine/threonine protein phosphatase 1 (PP-1) and 2A (PP-2A). The phosphorylation and dephosphorylation at the serine/threonine residues on proteins play important roles in regulating gene expression, cell cycle progression, and apoptosis. In this study, phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid induces apoptosis in U937 cells via a mechanism that appears to involve caspase 3 activation, but not modulation of Bcl-2, Bax, and Bcl-X(L) expression levels. Treatment with 20 or 40 nM okadaic acid for 24 h produced DNA fragmentation in U937 cells. This was associated with caspase 3 activation and PLC-gamma1 degradation. Okadaic acid-induced caspase 3 activation and PLC-gamma1 degradation and apoptosis were dose-dependent with a maximal effect at a concentration of 40 nM. Moreover, PMA (phorbol myristate acetate), PKC (protein kinase C) activator, protected U937 cells from okadaic acid-induced apoptosis, abrogated okadaic acid-induced caspase 3 activation, and specifically inhibited downregulation of XIAP (X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis) by okadaic acid. PMA cotreated U937 cells exhibited less cytochrome c release and sustained expression levels of the IAP (inhibitor of apoptosis) proteins during okadaic acid-induced apoptosis. In addition, these findings indicate that PMA inhibits okadaic acid-induced apoptosis by a mechanism that interferes with cytochrome c release and activity of caspase 3 that is involved in the execution of apoptosis. 相似文献

Treatment of human myeloid leukemia K562 cells with the serine/threonine protein phosphatases inhibitor okadaic acid induced mitotic arrest followed by apoptosis in a synchronized manner. The effect was observed at drug concentrations that inhibited the protein phosphatase type 2A but not type 1. We investigated whether apoptosis was a consequence of the preceding mitosis arrest or was induced independently by okadaic acid. We found that (1) apoptosis, but not mitotic arrest, was inhibited in cells with constitutive expression of Bcl-2; (2) pretreatment of cells with the DNA synthesis inhibitor hydroxyurea blocked the mitotic arrest but not the apoptosis mediated by okadaic acid; (3) down-regulation of c-myc gene was associated with apoptosis, but not with mitotic arrest; and (4) inhibition of protein synthesis abrogated mitotic arrest, but not apoptosis. The results suggest that inhibition of protein phosphatase 2A by okadaic acid provokes mitotic arrest and apoptosis of leukemia cells by independent mechanisms. 相似文献

Protein phosphatases are signalling molecules that regulate a variety of fundamental cellular processes including cell growth, metabolism and apoptosis. The aim of this work was to correlate the cytotoxicity of pervanadate and okadaic acid on HL60 cells and their effect on the phosphatase obtained from these cells. The cytotoxicity of these protein phosphatase inhibitors was evaluated on HL60 cells using phosphatase activity, protein quantification and MTT reduction as indices. The major phosphatase presents in the cellular extract showed high activity (80%) and affinity (Km = 0.08 mM) to tyrosine phosphate in relation to p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP)-(Km = 0.51 mM). Total phosphatase (pNPP) was inhibited in the presence of 10 mM vanadate (98%), 200 microM pervanadate (95%) and 100 microM p-chloromercuribenzoate (80%) but okadaic acid caused a slight increase in enzyme activity (25%). When the HL60 cells were treated with the phosphatase inhibitors (pervanadate and okadaic acid) for 24hours, only 20% residual activity was observed in presence of 200 microM pervanadate, whereas in the presence of okadaic acid this inhibitory effect was not observed. However, in respect to mitochondrial function, cell viability decreased about 80% in the presence of 100 nM okadaic acid. The total protein content was decreased 25% when the cells were treated with 100 nM okadaic acid in combination with 200 microM pervanadate. Our results suggest that both phosphatase inhibitors presented different mechanisms of action on HL60 cells. However, their effect on the cell redox status have to be considered. 相似文献
