Product Description

Paricalcitol-D6 is the deuterated form of Paricalcitol(Zemplar), which is a novel and potent vitamin D receptor agonist developed by Abbott Laboratories under the trade name Zemplar and is a drug used for the prevention and treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone) associated with chronic renal failure.


Paricalcitol-D6 is the deuterated (stable isotope-labeled) form of paricalcitol (Zemplar®), a synthetic vitamin D analog that acts as a potent and selective vitamin D receptor (VDR) agonist; the D6 labeling is primarily used as an internal standard in pharmacokinetic studies and mass spectrometry-based quantification.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Vitamin D receptor (VDR).
ln Vitro
Paricalcitol-D6 is expected to have essentially identical biological activity to paricalcitol, which is a VDR agonist that binds to the vitamin D receptor and regulates gene expression; it lowers parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels by binding to VDR in the parathyroid glands and upregulates VDR-responsive genes; in leukemic cells, it upregulates cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors and the tumor suppressor PTEN.
ln Vivo
As a deuterated standard, Paricalcitol-D6 is not intended for therapeutic use; however, non-deuterated paricalcitol is an approved drug for the prevention and treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism associated with chronic kidney disease; it is active in vivo with demonstrated efficacy in clinical settings.
Enzyme Assay
Binding affinity for the vitamin D receptor is typically measured by competitive radioligand binding assays using recombinant VDR protein; Paricalcitol-D6 is incubated with 3H-1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in the presence of VDR; bound radioactivity is separated, and the displacement curve is used to calculate Ki or IC50; these assays are performed to confirm that the D6 label does not alter receptor binding.
Cell Assay
Paricalcitol-D6 is used as a stable isotope-labeled internal standard in LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry) bioanalytical methods for the quantification of paricalcitol in biological matrices (plasma, urine, tissue homogenates); the D6-labeled compound is spiked into samples, and the ratio of paricalcitol to Paricalcitol-D6 is measured for accurate quantitation.
Animal Protocol
Not applicable for Paricalcitol-D6 as a D6 standard; for paricalcitol, in vivo efficacy studies are performed in 5/6-nephrectomized rats (chronic kidney disease model) to assess PTH lowering; in humans, clinical trials have established its efficacy and safety profile.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Paricalcitol-D6 is an analytical standard with the same PK properties as non-deuterated paricalcitol; non-deuterated paricalcitol: oral administration; bioavailable; metabolized by CYP24A1 and other vitamin D-metabolizing enzymes; excreted primarily in bile and feces; plasma half-life is approximately 5-7 hours.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Paricalcitol-D6 is a labeled standard with no independent toxicity; non-deuterated paricalcitol has an established clinical safety profile: common adverse effects include hypercalcemia, nausea, vomiting, and hypersensitivity; it is contraindicated in patients with hypercalcemia or vitamin D toxicity.

Additional Infomation
Paricalcitol-D6 is not a therapeutic agent; it is a stable isotope-labeled analytical standard used exclusively for research and quality control purposes; it is not approved for clinical use; it is used to support bioequivalence studies, pharmacokinetic studies, and drug metabolism research for paricalcitol; the parent drug paricalcitol (Zemplar®) is approved by FDA and EMA for secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease.
