8-(4-Chlorophenylthio)adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate sodium salt has been used:

• to upregulate cellular cholesterol pump (adenosine triphosphate- (ATP-) binding cassette (ABC) transporter-1, ABCA-1)
• in glucose production assay
• to stimulate cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel in airway epithelia

8-CPT-cAMP is an efficient activator of cGK and cAMP-PK, and inhibitor of PDE.

Cell-permeable cAMP analog that activates both protein kinase A and protein kinase G. Directly activates Epac, a Rap1 guanine-nucleotide exchange factor. Also acts as a potent inhibitor of cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase (IC₅₀ = 900 nM). Inhibits cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase at much higher concentrations (IC₅₀ = 25 μM).

ka : 0.05 and 0.11 μm for pka and pkg, respectively8-cpt-cyclic amp is a lipophilic activator of the cyclic-amp- and cyclic-gmp-dependent protein kinases, pka and pkg.the ability of cgmp-dependent protein kinases (cgks) to activate camp response element (cre)-dependent gene transcription was compared with that of camp-dependent protein kinases (caks).

Cell permeable: yes

a previous study found that 8-cpt-cyclic amp was a potent activator of camp-pk and cyclic-gmp-dependent protein kinase (cgmp-pk) both as purified enzymes and in platelet membranes. 8-cpt-cyclic amp was hydrolysed to a significant extent by the ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase and by the cgmp-inhibited phosphodiesterase. moreover, sp-5,6- dcl-cbimps was also more effective than 8-cpt-cyclic amp in inducing quantitative phosphorylation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein in intact platelets [1]. another study indicated that 8-cpt-cyclic amp was a potent inhibitor of the cyclic gmp-specific phosphodiesterase (pde va). indeed, 8-cpt-cyclic amp could inhibit pde va with a potency similar to that of zaprinast. in addition, 8-cpt-cyclic amp was metabolized by pde va at a rate half that of cyclic gmp. the cyclic gmp-inhibited phosphodiesterase and the cyclic amp-specific phosphodiesterase could be inhibited by 8-cpt-cyclic amp as well [2].
