ESI-05 has been used to study the effect of protein exchange directly activated by cAMP 2 on traumatic brain injury.[1]
Biochem/physiol Actions
ESI-05 is a selective inhibitor against cAMP-regulated guanine nucleotide exhange factor (GEF) EPAC2 (Exchange factor directly activated by cAMP 2) activation by targeting an EPAC2-specific allosteric site at the interface of the two cAMP-binding domains.
ESI-05 is a selective inhibitor against cAMP-regulated guanine nucleotide exhange factor (GEF) EPAC2 (Exchange factor directly activated by cAMP 2) activation by targeting an EPAC2-specific allosteric site at the interface of the two cAMP-binding domains. ESI-05 inhibits EAPC2, but not EPAC1 or PKA, activation by cAMP in a highly potent (IC50 = 430 nM; 25 μM cAMP) and cAMP-competitive manner in cell-free assays, and suppresses cAMP analog 007-AM-induced cellular Rap1 activation in EPAC2-, but not EPAC1-, expressing HEK293 transfectants.

The major physiological effects of cAMP in mammalian cells are transduced by two ubiquitously expressed intracellular cAMP receptors, protein kinase A (PKA) and exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (EPAC), as well as cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels in certain tissues.
Urocortin-1 (Ucn-1) is an endogenous peptide that protects heart from ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injuries. Ucn-1 is known to prevent cardiac cell death, but its role in the transcription of specific genes related to survival signaling pathway has not been

EPAC1 and EPAC2, two isoforms of exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (EPAC), respond to the second messenger cAMP and regulate a wide variety of intracellular processes under physiological and pathophysiological circumstances. Herein, we report the chemical design, synthesis, and
