| 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].
In vitro, lignoceric acid-d4-1 is used as an internal standard for the quantification of lignoceric acid by mass spectrometry and NMR. Stable heavy isotopes are incorporated into drug molecules largely as tracers for quantitation during drug development. The compound is used in studies of long-chain fatty acid metabolism and interactions. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, lignoceric acid-d4-1 is used as a tracer to study long-chain fatty acid metabolism. Lignoceric acid (tetracosanoic acid) is a 24-carbon saturated fatty acid synthesized in the developing brain. The deuterated form is used to track the metabolic fate of lignoceric acid in animal models and to study its role in brain development and disease.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays using lignoceric acid-d4-1 as an internal standard involve spiking the compound into biological samples (plasma, tissue extracts) prior to extraction and LC-MS/MS or GC-MS analysis. The deuterated compound is used to correct for matrix effects and ionization efficiency variations. For metabolic studies, the compound is incubated with liver microsomes or cell lysates, and metabolites are analyzed by mass spectrometry.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cell assays, cells are cultured in medium supplemented with lignoceric acid-d4-1 at concentrations of 0.1-10 mM, often complexed with BSA. Fatty acid uptake and metabolism are analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The deuterated compound serves as an internal standard for quantifying lignoceric acid levels in cells. Lipid metabolism and fatty acid oxidation are assessed by measuring labeled and unlabeled fatty acid species.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo animal studies, lignoceric acid-d4-1 is administered to rodents via oral gavage or intravenous injection at doses of 10-100 mg/kg. Blood and tissue samples are collected for pharmacokinetic analysis. Lignoceric acid levels are quantified by LC-MS/MS using the deuterated compound as an internal standard. Tissue distribution and metabolic profiling are performed to understand long-chain fatty acid metabolism.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Lignoceric acid-d4-1 (MW 372.66) has a molecular formula of C24H44D4O2. It has a standard purity of 98% with 98 atom% D. The deuterium labeling provides a mass shift of +4 Da for MS detection. The compound is stable under standard storage conditions. As a long-chain saturated fatty acid, it is metabolized through β-oxidation. It is synthesized in the developing brain.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The compound is for research use only. No specific toxicity data are available. Lignoceric acid is a naturally occurring fatty acid. The deuterated form is not expected to exhibit additional toxicity. Standard safety precautions should be followed.

*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.
