| Targets |
The primary target of Lamotrigine-13C3 is not the compound itself but the parent drug Lamotrigine, which is a voltage-gated sodium channel blocker. Lamotrigine stabilizes neuronal membranes by inhibiting sodium channels, thereby reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate. It is also a weak inhibitor of dihydrofolate reductase. Lamotrigine-13C3 is used as an internal standard for accurate quantification of Lamotrigine.

| ln Vitro |
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as quantitative tracers while the drugs were being developed. Due to its propensity to alter the pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties of medications, deuteration is a cause for concern [3].
Lamotrigine-13C3 itself does not exhibit direct in vitro biological activity, as it is a stable isotope-labeled internal standard. However, the parent compound Lamotrigine is a well-established anticonvulsant with demonstrated efficacy in reducing seizure frequency and stabilizing mood. Lamotrigine-13C3 is used as an internal standard to accurately measure Lamotrigine concentrations in biological samples. |
| ln Vivo |
Lamotrigine-13C3 is not intended for in vivo administration as a therapeutic agent; it is used as an analytical standard. The in vivo activity of the parent compound Lamotrigine is well documented as an anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer. Lamotrigine-13C3 is utilized in pharmacokinetic studies to track the distribution, metabolism, and excretion of Lamotrigine in biological systems.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for Lamotrigine-13C3 are not typically performed, as it is an analytical standard. Instead, the compound is used in analytical method development and validation. Quality control assays involve HPLC or LC-MS/MS to verify isotopic purity (≥98 atom % 13C) and chemical purity. The compound is tested for stability under various storage conditions.
|
| Cell Assay |
Lamotrigine-13C3 itself is not tested in in vitro cellular assays for biological activity, as it is an analytical standard. Its utility is assessed by its performance as an internal standard in analytical workflows, including its ability to co-elute with the parent compound and provide accurate quantification in LC-MS/MS or GC-MS analyses. The compound is used in quality control applications for Lamotrigine analysis.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for Lamotrigine-13C3 are not conducted as therapeutic efficacy studies. Instead, the compound is administered to animals as a tracer in pharmacokinetic studies to quantify the parent drug Lamotrigine in plasma, tissues, and excreta. These studies help determine the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) profile of Lamotrigine. The labeled compound allows for precise tracking and identification of the drug in biological matrices.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Lamotrigine-13C3 has a molecular formula of C12(13C)3H7Cl2N5 and a molecular weight of 258.04. It has a purity of ≥98% and an isotopic enrichment of ≥98 atom % 13C. It appears as a white to off-white solid. The compound is stable under recommended storage conditions, typically at -20°C. It is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of Lamotrigine-13C3 is not extensively characterized, as it is an analytical standard rather than a therapeutic agent. The parent compound Lamotrigine has well-established safety and toxicity profiles as an anticonvulsant. Lamotrigine-13C3 is intended for research use only and is not approved for clinical use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
