8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP is a selective activator of exchange proteins activated by cAMP (Epac), specifically targeting Epac1 with an EC50 of 2.2 μM. This compound does not activate protein kinase A (PKA) with an EC50 greater than 10 μM. 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP effectively stimulates Epac-mediated Ca2+ release in pancreatic β-cells in vitro, and it plays a role as a Rap1 activator. Additionally, it enhances the barrier function of retinal pigment epithelium against choroidal endothelial cell invasion, potentially providing insights into therapeutic mechanisms for macular degeneration.
