Specifications
Bioassays Specification Bio-Activity Epac activator Chemical Name 8-(4-Chlorophenylthio)-2’-O-methyladenosine-3’,5’-cyclic monophosphate, acetoxymethyl ester Function / Pharmacology A potent, cell-permeable Epac (exchange protein directly activated by cAMP) activator1. Induces RAP1 activation and insulin secretion in pancreatic beta cell lines2-5. Induces vascular relaxation in rat mesenteric artery6. The acetoxymethyl ester confers increased cell-permeability and is cleaved by endogenous esterases to yield the active compound, 8-pCPT-2'-O-Me-cAMP. Addition to cell cultures should be done in serum-free media as esterases in serum will cleave the acetoxymethyl ester and reduce cell permeability. CAS# 1152197-23-3 MW 557.91 Molecular Formula C20H21ClN5O8PS Solubility Soluble in DMSO (up to 50 mg/ml). Supplied powder Storage as supplied -20°C Ship temp Ambient References 1) Vliem et al.
