| Targets |
(R)-Amlodipine-d4 shares the same molecular target as its non-deuterated form, (R)-amlodipine. Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker that targets the L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (Caᵥ1.2) in vascular smooth muscle and cardiac muscle. By blocking calcium influx, amlodipine causes vasodilation and reduces blood pressure. The S-enantiomer is approximately 1000-fold more potent than the R-enantiomer. The labeled compound is used as a tracer to study the pharmacokinetics of amlodipine.

| 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. Because deuteration may have an effect on a drug's pharmacokinetics and metabolic properties, it is a cause for concern [1].
The deuterated compound itself does not possess intrinsic pharmacological activity in vitro; its biological activity is identical to that of (R)-amlodipine. (R)-Amlodipine is a weak calcium channel blocker with low affinity for L-type calcium channels. In vitro studies have shown that the S-enantiomer is responsible for the vasodilatory effects of amlodipine, while the R-enantiomer contributes to other effects, such as nitric oxide release. The labeled compound is used as an internal standard for quantifying amlodipine in biological samples. |
| ln Vivo |
(R)-Amlodipine-d4 is not used as a therapeutic agent; its non-deuterated form, amlodipine (as the racemate or S-enantiomer), is an orally active calcium channel blocker used in the treatment of hypertension and coronary artery disease. Amlodipine has a long half-life (30-50 hours) and is well-absorbed after oral administration. It is metabolized in the liver via cytochrome P450 3A4. The labeled compound is used in pharmacokinetic studies to accurately measure amlodipine concentrations in plasma and other biological matrices.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays for (R)-amlodipine-d4 are not standard, as it is an analytical standard. The calcium channel blocking activity of its non-deuterated form is assessed using patch-clamp electrophysiology or calcium flux assays in cells expressing L-type calcium channels. The labeled compound is used as an internal standard for LC-MS/MS analysis of amlodipine concentrations in biological samples.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell culture experiments are not performed with (R)-amlodipine-d4. When studying the effects of amlodipine in cellular systems, the non-labeled compound (usually as the racemate) is used. Vascular smooth muscle cells are treated with amlodipine, and calcium influx, vasodilation, or cell proliferation are measured. The labeled compound is used as an internal standard for LC-MS/MS analysis of amlodipine concentrations in cell culture media or lysates.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with (R)-amlodipine-d4 are not conducted, as it is an analytical standard. When used in pharmacokinetic studies, the labeled compound serves as an internal standard for the quantification of amlodipine in animal plasma or tissue samples. In typical protocols, animals are administered amlodipine, and blood samples are collected at various time points. The labeled internal standard is added to the samples before analysis by LC-MS/MS to ensure accurate and precise quantification.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of (R)-amlodipine-d4 itself are not characterized, as it is not a drug substance. Amlodipine has a bioavailability of approximately 60-65% after oral administration, with a half-life of 30-50 hours in humans. It is metabolized primarily by cytochrome P450 3A4 to inactive metabolites. Amlodipine is excreted in urine (60%) and feces (40%). The deuterated compound is used as an internal standard to accurately quantify amlodipine in pharmacokinetic studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
(R)-Amlodipine-d4 is not a therapeutic agent and has not been evaluated for toxicity in humans. Its non-deuterated form, amlodipine, is generally well-tolerated, with common side effects including peripheral edema, headache, and dizziness. The deuterated compound is for research use only and should be handled with standard laboratory precautions.
