Product Description
Nitazoxanide D4 (NTZ D4; NSC-697855 D4) is the deuterium labeled (deurated) form of Nitazoxanide, which is a synthetic nitrothiazolyl-salicylamide derivative and an antiprotozoal agent with IC50 for canine influenza virus ranges from 0.17 to 0.21 μM. Nitazoxanide was approved for treating human protozoan infections. Nitazoxanide reduces parasite growth in cell culture by more than 90% with little evidence of drug-associated cytotoxicity. Nitazoxanide is a new thiazolide antiparasitic agent that shows excellent in vitro activity against a wide variety of protozoa and helminths. Nitazoxanide and its metabolite tizoxanide are more active in vitro than metronidazole against G. intestinalis, E. histolytica and T. vaginalis.
Nitazoxanide D4 (CAS# 1246819-17-9), also known as Nitazoxanide-d4, is a deuterium-labeled form of the broad-spectrum antiparasitic and antiviral agent Nitazoxanide. It has a molecular formula of C₁₂H₅D₄N₃O₅S and a molecular weight of 311.28 g/mol. The incorporation of four deuterium atoms makes it a valuable internal standard for analytical research, quality control, and pharmaceutical reference standard applications. Nitazoxanide D4 is used to study the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of Nitazoxanide.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Gnotobiotic piglet diarrhea model
In vivo animal studies for Nitazoxanide D4 involve administering the compound to animals and collecting blood, tissue, and excreta samples at various time points. The samples are analyzed by LC-MS/MS to determine the concentration of Nitazoxanide D4 and its metabolites. This data is used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life, volume of distribution, and clearance.
Targets
Nitazoxanide D4 targets the same molecular targets as its non-deuterated parent compound. Nitazoxanide acts on pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR) enzyme-dependent electron transfer reaction, a critical process for anaerobic energy metabolism in parasites. It also kills Mycobacterium tuberculosis and exhibits activity against a broad spectrum of viruses. As a labeled compound, Nitazoxanide D4 is used to study these mechanisms.
ln Vitro
Nitazoxanide reduces parasite growth in cell culture by more than 90% with little evidence of drug-associated cytotoxicity. Nitazoxanide is a new thiazolide antiparasitic agent that shows excellent in vitro activity against a wide variety of protozoa and helminths. Nitazoxanide and its metabolite tizoxanide are more active in vitro than metronidazole against G. intestinalis, E. histolytica and T. vaginalis. Nitazoxanide exhibits potent inhibition of both HBV and HCV replication. Nitazoxanide potentiates the effect of subsequent treatment with Nitazoxanide plus IFN, but not Nitazoxanide plus 2CmeC, in HCV replicon-containing cells. Nitazoxanide induces reductions in several HBV proteins (HBsAg, HBeAg, HBcAg) produced by 2.2.15 cells, but does not affect HBV RNA transcription. Nitazoxanide exhibits IC50, and IC90 values of 0.017 and 0.776 mg/mL respectively, against E. histolytica, 0.004 and 0.067 mg/mL against G. intestinalis, and 0.034 and 2.046 mg/mL against T. vaginalis. Nitazoxanide is more toxic than metronidazole and albendazole against E. histolytica.
In vitro, Nitazoxanide D4 exhibits the same biological activity as Nitazoxanide, which includes antiprotozoal, anthelmintic, and antiviral effects. It is used in antiviral research to study its efficacy against broad-spectrum viruses, offering insights into mechanisms and potential therapeutic pathways. Its deuterated form allows for precise quantification in biological samples.
ln Vivo
Nitazoxanide is partially effective at reducing the parasite burden in a gnotobiotic piglet diarrhea model when given orally for 11 days at 250 mg/kg/day but not at 125 mg/kg/day. Nitazoxanide induces a drug-related diarrhea in piglets that might have influenced its therapeutic efficacy.
In vivo, Nitazoxanide D4 is used as a tracer to study the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of Nitazoxanide in animal models. It is not administered as a therapeutic agent itself but is used to track the distribution, metabolism, and elimination of the parent compound. Its use in research helps to understand the in vivo behavior of Nitazoxanide.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro analytical assays for Nitazoxanide D4 primarily involve mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) or gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). It is used as an internal standard to correct for matrix effects and to ensure accurate quantification of Nitazoxanide in biological samples. A known amount of Nitazoxanide D4 is added to samples, and the ratio of the analyte to the internal standard is measured.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Nitazoxanide D4 are not typically performed, as it is a labeled compound used for analytical purposes. However, it can be used in cell culture studies to track the cellular uptake and metabolism of Nitazoxanide. Cells are treated with Nitazoxanide D4, and the intracellular concentrations of the labeled compound and its metabolites are measured by LC-MS/MS.
Animal Protocol
125, 250 mg/kg; oral
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of Nitazoxanide D4 reflect those of Nitazoxanide. Following oral administration, Nitazoxanide is rapidly hydrolyzed to its active metabolite, tizoxanide. It is highly protein-bound and eliminated primarily in feces and urine. Nitazoxanide D4 is used to study these processes, providing a precise understanding of the compound's absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Nitazoxanide D4 is a stable isotope-labeled compound and is considered to have low toxicity. As a research compound, it is intended for laboratory use only and is not for human therapeutic use. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound. It is typically supplied with a purity of ≥98%.
