Cyclic AMP stimulates CaMKII phosphorylation leading activation of the phospholamban-SERCA2a axis. To investigate this, we used 8-bormo-cAMP.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Application

Cell culture

Starting Material

HL-1 cardioymocytes

Tips

NA

Results Summary

HL-1 cardiomyocytes were treated with 100 nM fostriecin, 100 nM Okadaic acid or 50 nM 8-bromo-cAMP for 30 min followed by Western blot analysis for pCaMKII expression.
