Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) is an important second messenger and intracellular regulator in many biological processes and, in particular, is used in intracellular signal transduction to convey the cAMP-dependent pathway. Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate is derived from ATP and is an adenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group which is esterified to both the 3′- and 5′-positions of the sugar moiety. In eukaryotic cells, Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate function in many biochemical processes, including the regulation of glycogen, lipid and sugar metabolism. In these roles, Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate works by activating PKA (protein kinase A). Additionally, Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate works independently of PKA in activating calcium channels and proving a pathway for the release of growth hormone.
