Can cAMP be used as a biomarker in toxicology studies?
Yes, cAMP levels can serve as a biomarker for assessing cellular responses to toxicants. Changes in intracellular cAMP levels can indicate disruption of normal signaling pathways. In toxicology studies, measuring cAMP can help identify potential toxic effects and elucidate mechanisms of action. This information is valuable for risk assessment and the development of therapeutic interventions.
