Metabolites of an Epac-Selective cAMP Analog Induce Cortisol Synthesis by Adrenocortical Cells through a cAMP-Independent Pathway

Adrenal zona fasciculata (AZF) cells express a cAMP-activated guanine nucleotide exchange protein (Epac2) that may function in ACTH-stimulated cortisol synthesis. Experiments were done to determine whether cAMP analogs that selectively activate Epacs could induce cortisol synthesis and the expressio...
