Linked from
The 57 pages that link to cAMP, each with the reason it gives.
ParodyRelated: Camp exaggerates style in ways that can overlap with parody, though mockery is not required.
CholeraRelated: Cholera toxin raises its level in intestinal cells, promoting chloride and water secretion.
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptorRelated: Gi-linked receptor activity can lower its production by inhibiting adenylyl cyclase.
Drag performanceRelated: Camp's deliberate artificiality often informs drag's humor, styling, and performance choices.
Cult filmRelated: Camp sensibility helps explain why audiences cherish films whose performances or style defy conventional taste.
GlucagonRelated: Glucagon raises this messenger in liver cells to amplify its signal.
Adrenergic receptorRelated: It carries signals from several adrenergic receptor subtypes to intracellular targets.
Dopamine D2 receptorRelated: D2-mediated inhibition of adenylyl cyclase typically reduces cellular cyclic AMP.
EpinephrineRelated: Beta-adrenergic signaling raises cAMP, linking epinephrine binding to changes inside cells.
Antidiuretic hormoneRelated: V2 receptor activation raises cyclic AMP, which promotes aquaporin 2 trafficking.
Queer cinemaRelated: Camp became a language for queer pleasure, critique, and self-expression on screen.
Insulin secretionRelated: cAMP amplifies glucose-triggered secretion through protein kinase A and Epac signaling.
Queer codingRelated: Its theatrical excess has often served as a legible queer cue in characters and performance.
AdrenalineRelated: Beta-adrenergic receptor activation raises cAMP in many target cells.
Dopamine receptorRelated: Dopamine receptor families regulate adenylyl cyclase and thereby alter cyclic AMP levels.
FamotidineRelated: H₂-receptor signaling raises cyclic AMP in parietal cells to promote acid secretion.
Polycystic kidney diseaseRelated: Elevated cyclic AMP promotes fluid secretion and cyst expansion in affected kidneys.
New Queer CinemaRelated: Camp’s deliberate excess offered filmmakers a way to unsettle conventional taste and gender roles.
Cholera toxinRelated: The toxin’s rise in cyclic AMP revealed how second-messenger signaling controls epithelial secretion.
MethylxanthineRelated: Phosphodiesterase inhibition can raise cellular cyclic AMP, contributing to methylxanthine effects.
Pedro AlmodóvarRelated: Its embrace of excess helps explain the vivid performances and stylized surfaces of his early films.
Barbara CartlandRelated: Cartland’s deliberately ornate image has often invited camp readings.
Bette MidlerRelated: Camp performance became central to the comic, glamorous stage persona she developed in New York.
Dictyostelium discoideumRelated: Starving cells release cyclic AMP pulses that recruit neighboring amoebae into aggregation.
Queer artRelated: Camp has given queer artists a vocabulary for transforming stigma and excess into style.
TheophyllineRelated: Increased cyclic AMP can promote airway smooth-muscle relaxation.
BronchodilatorRelated: Beta-2 receptor activation increases this messenger, helping airway muscle relax.
Douglas SirkRelated: The conspicuous style of Sirk’s films has invited camp readings alongside serious social analysis.
Drag queenRelated: Camp’s embrace of exaggeration often informs drag queens’ visual style and humor.
McCune–Albright syndromeRelated: Excess cyclic AMP links the mutation to abnormal hormone production and tissue growth.
SupervillainRelated: Outlandish costumes, grand plans, and theatrical delivery can make supervillains camp icons.
Drag kingRelated: Camp can shape the humor and heightened style of a drag king persona.
Drag showRelated: Camp's deliberate excess and knowing humor often inform drag-show performance.
PapaverineRelated: Higher cAMP contributes to papaverine's relaxation of vascular smooth muscle.
Roger VadimRelated: Barbarella’s extravagant design and playful tone invite camp readings.
SecretinRelated: Secretin-receptor signaling raises cyclic AMP in duct cells to promote fluid and bicarbonate secretion.
Musical parodyRelated: Camp performance can make musical imitation playful without requiring a sharply critical target.
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney diseaseRelated: Elevated cyclic AMP in cyst-lining cells is implicated in fluid secretion and cell proliferation.
Jacqueline SusannRelated: The extravagant style of Susann’s novels and their adaptations later invited camp readings.
Joan CollinsRelated: The show’s heightened performances and glamour, including Collins’s, later invited camp readings.
SalbutamolRelated: Its increase after receptor activation helps reduce airway smooth-muscle contraction.
SalmeterolRelated: In airway smooth muscle, increased cyclic AMP promotes relaxation after salmeterol exposure.
Tallulah BankheadRelated: Bankhead’s flamboyance and self-aware wit have made her a lasting figure in camp culture.
Vice GandaRelated: His flamboyant persona and deliberate exaggeration often use camp sensibilities.
Dorothy LamourRelated: Lamour’s stylized sarong persona later became recognizable through affectionate parody and revival.
EffeminacyRelated: Camp can deliberately stylize traits historically coded as effeminate.
