| Targets |
MT1 and MT2 melatonin receptors. Ramelteon is a selective agonist at these receptors.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Ramelteon, the non-deuterated form, is a selective melatonin receptor agonist used for the treatment of insomnia. The deuterated form, Ramelteon-d3, is expected to exhibit similar pharmacological properties due to the minimal isotopic effect of deuterium substitution.
|
| ln Vivo |
Ramelteon is used for the treatment of insomnia characterized by difficulty with sleep onset. It acts as a selective agonist at MT1 and MT2 melatonin receptors to regulate sleep-wake cycles.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro receptor binding assays are performed to determine the affinity of ramelteon for MT1 and MT2 receptors. Radioligand binding studies using membrane preparations from cells expressing the receptors are conducted. The compound's ability to displace a specific radiolabeled ligand from each receptor is measured to calculate its binding affinity.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays are conducted using cells expressing recombinant MT1 or MT2 receptors. The cells are treated with ramelteon, and receptor activation is measured by assessing downstream signaling events such as inhibition of cAMP accumulation.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies involving Ramelteon-d3 are primarily focused on its role as an analytical standard for pharmacokinetic studies. The deuterated form is used as an internal standard for the quantification of ramelteon in biological samples using mass spectrometry.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Ramelteon-d3 is used as an internal standard in pharmacokinetic studies to quantify ramelteon in biological samples using mass spectrometry. The deuterium labeling offers enhanced stability and improved pharmacokinetic properties.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No specific toxicity data are publicly available for Ramelteon-d3. As a deuterated form of an approved drug, its safety profile is expected to be similar to that of ramelteon.
|
| Additional Infomation |
Ramelteon-d3 is the deuterium-labeled form of ramelteon (TAK-375), a selective melatonin receptor agonist used for the treatment of insomnia. It is used as an internal standard in analytical methods for the quantification of ramelteon. The compound is not intended for human therapeutic use and is strictly for research purposes.

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. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
