Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate has been used:
as cell culture medium supplement in embryonic spinal neurons[1][2]
as a component of ringer solution for perfusion studies[3]
to induce neuroendocrine differentiation in human lung cancer cell lines[4]
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.

Striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs) mediate many of the physiological effects of dopamine, including the regulation of feeding and motor behaviors. Dopaminergic inputs from the midbrain modulate MSN excitability through pathways that involve cAMP and protein kinase A (PKA), but

Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones, is essential for development, wound healing, and tumor progression. The VEGF pathway plays irreplaceable roles during angiogenesis, but how other signals cross-talk with and modulate VEGF cascades is not clearly
