General description
Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate has been
used:
as cell culture medium supplement in embryonic spinal
neurons

for perfusion studies
to induce neuroendocrine differentiation in human lung
cancer cell lines
Biochem/physiol Actions
Naturally-occurring
activator of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). The cAMP/PKA signaling
pathway inhibits cell proliferation, induces differentiation and leads to
apoptosis.
Naturally-occurring
activator of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). cAMP
is an important second messenger that is linked in many systems to
neurotransmitter- or hormone-induced receptor stimulation. The cAMP/PKA
signaling pathway has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation, induce
differentiation and lead to apoptosis.
