| Targets |
Central nervous system targets including monoamine reuptake transporters (serotonin, norepinephrine, dopamine) and calcium/sodium channels; also modulates beta-catenin protein levels in mesenchymal cells.
|
|---|---|
| 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].
Nefopam inhibits the reuptake of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine in the CNS, contributing to its analgesic and antidepressant properties. In vitro, Nefopam has been shown to target the beta-catenin protein level in mesenchymal cells. For Nefopam-d3, the deuterated version is expected to bind with similar affinity to these targets, making it suitable for receptor binding assays using mass spectrometry detection. |
| Cell Assay |
Nefopam has been shown to modulate beta-catenin levels in mesenchymal cells, with Nefopam hydrochloride affecting protein stability. The deuterated version is used to confirm these findings via isotope tracing. A typical protocol: Culture mesenchymal stem cells or fibroblasts. Treat cells with 10-100 uM Nefopam-d3 for 24-48 hours. Lyse cells and analyze beta-catenin protein expression by Western blot. Use LC-MS/MS to quantify the ratio of Nefopam-d3 to endogenous Nefopam or to trace its metabolic fate.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For pharmacokinetic studies in animals (e.g., rats, mice), Nefopam-d3 is administered intravenously (IV) or orally to serve as an internal standard for bioanalytical method validation. A typical protocol: Administer a known dose of Nefopam hydrochloride alongside a fixed amount of Nefopam-d3. Collect blood samples at various time points (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours). Process plasma by protein precipitation and analyze by LC-MS/MS with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) to quantify both unlabeled and deuterated drug. The deuterated standard enables accurate determination of Nefopam concentrations.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Nefopam-d3 has a molecular weight of 292.82 g/mol (free base) and is typically supplied as the hydrochloride salt. The pharmacokinetics of Nefopam in humans: oral bioavailability ~30-50% due to first-pass metabolism; peak plasma concentration reached in 1-2 hours; terminal half-life (t1/2) ~4-6 hours. Metabolism is primarily via N-demethylation and hydroxylation (CYP450 enzymes). The deuteration (d3) is expected to slow the rate of metabolism at the deuterated site, leading to a slight extension of half-life and reduced formation of deuterated metabolites.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Nefopam has a well-established clinical safety profile. Common adverse effects include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, drowsiness, and sweating. At therapeutic doses, cardiovascular effects are minimal. Nefopam-d3, as a stable isotope-labeled analog, is considered non-toxic at the trace amounts used as an analytical standard. For research use, standard precautions for handling pharmaceutical compounds should be followed.

| Additional Infomation |
Nefopam-d3 is a research-grade stable isotope-labeled standard, not intended for human therapeutic use. It is used exclusively for analytical method development (e.g., bioequivalence studies, toxicokinetic studies) and as a tracer for metabolic studies of non-opioid analgesics. Nefopam (unlabeled) is approved in several countries for the treatment of moderate to severe pain. The deuterated form is not approved as a therapeutic agent and is for laboratory research use only.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
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.
