8-OH-cAMP (8-Hydroxy-cAMP) is a polar, membrane-impermeable cyclic adenosine monophosphate analog that is resistant to mammalian cyclic nucleotide-dependent phosphodiesterases. As a polar PKA agonist, 8-OH-cAMP is used to study the role of cAMP in the development and progression of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases[1].
