| Targets |
trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 is a stable isotope-labeled version of the plant hormone trans-Zeatinriboside. Its unlabeled counterpart is a naturally occurring cytokinin, a class of phytohormones that regulate plant growth and development. The primary targets of trans-Zeatinriboside are histidine kinases (HKs), which are cytokinin receptors located in the cell membrane. Binding of the hormone to these receptors initiates a multi-step phosphorelay signal transduction cascade that ultimately leads to the activation of cytokinin response factors (CRFs) in the nucleus. This signaling pathway regulates the expression of thousands of genes involved in various processes, including cell division, shoot and root meristem development, leaf senescence, nutrient mobilization, and tolerance to abiotic stresses (drought, salinity). The deuterated compound is used as an internal standard to precisely quantify these phytohormones.

| ln Vitro |
Drug compounds have included stable heavy isotopes of carbon, hydrogen, and other elements, mostly as tracers that influence measurement during the drug development process. It's possible that the pharmacokinetics and functional range of medications contribute to the concern over mutagenesis [1].
The in vitro biological activity of trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 itself has not been directly studied, as it is an analytical internal standard. However, its unlabeled parent compound, trans-Zeatinriboside, has well-characterized in vitro activity. In plant cell suspension cultures (e.g., Arabidopsis thaliana or tobacco BY-2 cells), trans-Zeatinriboside (1-50 uM) strongly promotes cell division and callus proliferation. It has been shown to activate the expression of cytokinin-responsive reporter genes (e.g., ARR5::GUS) in a dose-dependent manner, with half-maximal activation occurring at low nanomolar concentrations. Furthermore, in detached leaf assays, trans-Zeatinriboside effectively delays leaf senescence by inhibiting the degradation of chlorophyll and the downregulation of genes involved in photosynthesis. The labeled version (trans-Zeatinriboside-d5) is used as an internal standard to quantify the actual hormone concentration in the culture medium by LC-MS, thereby validating the observed biological responses. |
| ln Vivo |
trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 is a stable isotope-labeled compound used primarily as an analytical internal standard. The in vivo activity of its non-labeled counterpart, trans-Zeatinriboside, has been well-demonstrated in plants. When exogenously applied to plants (e.g., via root drench or foliar spray at 1-100 uM), trans-Zeatinriboside can alter plant architecture. It promotes shoot initiation and growth while inhibiting root elongation. In transgenic Arabidopsis lines containing the cytokinin-responsive two-component signaling sensor TCSn::GFP, application of trans-Zeatinriboside induces strong GFP expression in the root tips and shoot apical meristem. Additionally, foliar application of trans-Zeatinriboside (10 uM) has been shown to significantly delay drought-induced leaf wilting and enhance the recovery of plants upon re-watering by reducing stomatal conductance and improving osmotic adjustment. The deuterated trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 serves as an internal standard in mass spectrometry to accurately determine the in vivo concentrations of the hormone in these studies.

| Enzyme Assay |
A generic non-cell-based assay protocol for trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 involves a ligand-binding assay with a cytokinin receptor. For this protocol, express and purify the Arabidopsis histidine kinase receptor, such as CRE1/AHK4, in a heterologous system (e.g., insect cells or E. coli). Coat a 96-well plate with the purified receptor protein. Prepare a solution of a labeled cytokinin probe (e.g., [3H]-trans-Zeatin) in binding buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 10% glycerol, 0.1% BSA). Add increasing concentrations (0.1 pM to 10 uM) of unlabeled trans-Zeatinriboside to a fixed concentration of the labeled probe. Transfer the mixture to the receptor-coated wells and incubate at 4degC for 2-4 hours. Wash the wells three times with cold binding buffer to remove unbound material. Add scintillation fluid to the wells and measure the bound radioactivity using a microplate scintillation counter. Calculate the IC₅0 (the concentration of unlabeled trans-Zeatinriboside that displaces 50% of the bound labeled probe) using non-linear regression analysis. Use trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 as an internal standard in LC-MS to validate the concentration of the unlabeled compound in the assay.

| Cell Assay |
A standard in vitro cell-based protocol for trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 uses the Arabidopsis thaliana cell suspension culture. Grow Arabidopsis cells in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 3% sucrose at 22degC in the dark with shaking (120 rpm). Subculture weekly. For the assay, treat 2 mL aliquots of cells (approx. 0.2 g fresh weight) in 6-well plates with increasing concentrations (0.1 nM to 50 uM) of unlabeled trans-Zeatinriboside. Incubate for 24 hours. Harvest the cells by centrifugation (2000g, 10 min). Extract total RNA from the cell pellets using a kit. Perform quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) to measure the expression of the cytokinin-responsive marker gene ARR5. Determine the half-maximal effective concentration (EC₅0) for gene activation from the dose-response curve. Use trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 as an internal standard in an LC-MS analysis of the culture medium to accurately determine the exact hormone concentration the cells were exposed to during the experiment.

| Animal Protocol |
A typical in vivo experimental protocol for trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 uses the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana to study stress tolerance. For this protocol, surface-sterilize Arabidopsis seeds and stratify them at 4degC for 2 days. Sow the seeds on 1/2 MS agar plates and allow them to germinate for 7 days. Transfer the seedlings to soil and grow them in a growth chamber (16 h light/8 h dark, 22degC, 60% humidity) for 3 weeks. Then, subject the plants to drought stress by withholding water for 10-14 days. One day before re-watering, spray the plants with a solution of unlabeled trans-Zeatinriboside (10 uM in 0.05% Tween-20) or control solution (0.05% Tween-20). Allow the plants to recover by re-watering and assess their survival rate after 5 days. For phytohormone analysis, collect leaf samples at various time points, freeze in liquid nitrogen, and homogenize. Extract the hormones using a solvent mixture (methanol/water/formic acid). Add trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 as the internal standard to each sample before extraction. Analyze the extracts by LC-MS/MS to quantify the endogenous levels of trans-Zeatinriboside and related cytokinins.

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
trans-Zeatinriboside-d5 is a stable isotope-labeled internal standard, so its PK is not characterized. However, the metabolism of trans-Zeatinriboside in plants is well-studied. In plants, the cytokinin trans-Zeatinriboside is the primary transport form found in the xylem sap. It is synthesized in the roots and transported to the shoots. Once it reaches target cells, it is converted to the active free base, trans-Zeatin, by the enzyme cytokinin ribosidase. The biological activity of the hormone is primarily mediated by the free base. trans-Zeatin is rapidly metabolized via two major pathways: irreversible cleavage by cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase (CKX), and reversible conjugation to glucose by O-glucosyltransferase. The half-life of trans-Zeatinriboside in plant tissues is typically short, ranging from a few minutes to a few hours. The labeled internal standard is used to accurately quantify these dynamics in metabolic studies.

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
There is no reported toxicity for trans-Zeatinriboside-d5, as it is a stable isotope-labeled research compound intended for analytical use. Its unlabeled parent compound, trans-Zeatinriboside, is a naturally occurring plant hormone. It is generally considered non-toxic to humans and animals. It is a natural constituent of many plant-based foods. In toxicological studies in rodents, purified trans-Zeatinriboside administered intraperitoneally at doses up to 500 mg/kg did not produce any observable signs of acute toxicity or significant changes in body weight or organ weights. No evidence of genotoxicity has been found in standard bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) assays. Similarly, it is not considered a skin irritant or sensitizer. For laboratory handling, standard chemical safety protocols should be followed (use of gloves and lab coat). The compound should be stored as a powder at -20degC to ensure stability, and when in solution, it should be stored at -80degC for up to six months.
