Activating Compound | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
forskolin | forskolin-stimulated cAMP production is significantly increased to levels that do not differ between isoforms following the expression of AC1, AC2, AC5, or AC6 | Rattus norvegicus | |
isoproterenol | stimulates AC6 resulting in a significant increase in the arborization process | Rattus norvegicus |

additional information | isoform-selective signaling complexes likely contribute to various functional consequences of cAMP elevation in vascular smooth muscle cells. AC1 isoform contributes to modulation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase signaling, proliferation, and control of cell division, whereas AC6, at least partly because of uncoupling of cAMP synthesis from cAMP breakdown, results in sustained cAMP accumulation, vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein phosphorylation, and control of cytoskeletal rearrangements that contribute to vascular arborization | Rattus norvegicus |

HEK293 cells transiently transfected with pcDNA3 containing either GFP or Flag-tagged AC1, AC2 and AC5 or AC6 cDNA | Rattus norvegicus |
Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |

siRNA | selectively reduces heterologous expression of AC6 without impact on the expression of AC2, reduces forskolin-activated AC6 activity, whereby diminishing forskolin-induced arborization | Rattus norvegicus |

ATP | cAMP synthesis by the AC6 isoform is not tightly coupled to cAMP hydrolysis, whereas for the other AC isoforms cAMP synthesis and hydrolysis are much more tightly linked | Rattus norvegicus | 3',5'-cAMP + diphosphate | - |
