Okadaic acid is a potent and specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A which seems to be useful for identifying biological processes that are controlled by reversible phosphorylation of proteins. We report here that okadaic acid inhibits in isolated hepatocytes the stimulations of phosphoinositide turnover induced by epinephrine, angiotensin II and vasopressin. Mastoparan, a peptide toxin from wasp venom that mimics receptors by activating G-proteins, also the accumulation of stimulates inositol phosphates in hepatocytes. Interestingly,this action of mastoparan was also inhibited by okadaic acid. Our data indicate that okadaic acid inhibits the phosphoinositide turnover signal transduction system in hepatocytes at a level distal to the receptors. 0 1991 Academic Press, Inc.

The anion exchange resin AG l-X8 (formate form) was from BioRad and collagenase from Worthington. Okadaic acid was from Gibco (the initial experiments were performed with a sample of this tumor promoter generously provided by Dr. Philip Cohen, (Dundee, U.K.)). libitum. cells buffer, shaker.
Experiments were performed with female Wistar rats (220-250 g) fed ad Hepatocytes were isolated by the method of Berry and Friend [19]. The (30-40 mg wet weight) were incubated in 1 ml of Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate under an atmosphere of 95% 021 5% C02, pH 7.4 at 37' C in a water bath
Phosphatidylinositol labeling was studied as described previously [20]. Production of inositol phosphates was studied as described [21,22]. In brief, the cells were incubated for 90 min with 15 nCi/ml of tritiated inositol, washed and incubated for 10 min with 10 mM LiCl in the presence or absence of okadaic acid; the hormones were added and after 5 min of incubation the reaction was stopped. Inositol phosphates were separated by anion exchange chromatography as described by Berridge et al counts in [231. The total fractions l-4 (IPl),6-8 (IP2) and 11-12 (IP3) were added to determine the production of these inositol phosphates. RESULTS In
