Product Description
1,4-Butanediamine-d8 di-HCl is the deuterated form of 1,4-Diaminobutane di-HCl. 1,4-Diaminobutane (Putrescine) di-HCl is an endogenously produced metabolite that could be utilized as an indicator of contamination caused by Cr (III) or Cr (VI) stress in higher plants such as barley and rapeseed.
1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride (Putrescine-d8 dihydrochloride; CAS: 284665-22-1) is the deuterium-labeled analog of putrescine (1,4-diaminobutane), where eight hydrogen atoms are replaced with deuterium. This stable isotope compound is characterized by the substitution of eight hydrogen atoms with deuterium, yielding a mass shift of +8 Da relative to unlabeled putrescine. It is used as a stable isotope internal standard for LC-MS and GC-MS quantification of putrescine in biological samples.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride has no independent pharmacological target as a stable isotope internal standard. The unlabeled putrescine is an endogenous polyamine and metabolite derived from the decarboxylation of ornithine via ornithine decarboxylase (ODC). It is the precursor for the biosynthesis of higher polyamines spermidine and spermine, which are involved in cellular growth, proliferation, and differentiation. Putrescine is also an indicator of contamination caused by Cr(III) or Cr(VI) stress in higher plants.
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].
As an internal standard, 1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride is not tested for in vitro pharmacological activity. In cell culture studies, it is added to cell lysates as an internal standard for the quantification of endogenous putrescine by LC-MS/MS. The deuterium label allows clear discrimination from endogenous putrescine in mass spectrometry, enabling accurate quantification of polyamine metabolism and cellular processes including cell growth, apoptosis, and stress responses.
ln Vivo
1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride has no in vivo pharmacological activity as a therapeutic agent. It is used as an internal standard for quantifying putrescine in biological samples obtained from animal studies, including plasma, urine, and tissue homogenates. The deuterated version follows the same ADME properties as natural putrescine and is used to calibrate analytical methods without affecting physiological processes.
Enzyme Assay
For in vitro LC-MS/MS quantification, 1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride is dissolved in water, methanol, or 0.1% formic acid to prepare a stock solution (e.g., 1 mg/mL). The internal standard is added to biological samples (cell lysates, culture media, plasma, urine) at a fixed concentration (e.g., 10-500 ng/mL). Proteins are precipitated with methanol or acetonitrile containing 0.1% formic acid. After centrifugation (10,000-15,000 rpm, 10 minutes), the supernatant is analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The analyte-to-internal standard peak area ratio is used for quantification, correcting for matrix effects and extraction recovery. For derivatization-based methods (GC-MS), dansyl chloride or similar derivatizing agents are used.
Cell Assay
For cell-based studies, cells (e.g., cancer cell lines, neuronal cells, or hepatocytes) are cultured in standard medium (DMEM or RPMI-1640 with 10% FBS). After experimental treatments affecting polyamine metabolism (e.g., with DFMO, an ODC inhibitor), cell lysates are collected. The internal standard 1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride is added at a fixed concentration (e.g., 10-100 ng/mL) to the lysates. Following protein precipitation with methanol or acetonitrile and centrifugation, the supernatants are analyzed by LC-MS/MS to quantify endogenous putrescine levels. Putrescine concentrations are normalized to protein content by BCA assay.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo pharmacokinetic or metabolomic studies, 1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride is not administered to animals independently. It is used as an internal standard for quantifying putrescine in biological samples obtained from animals treated with experimental compounds affecting polyamine metabolism. After collection of plasma, urine, or tissue homogenates, the internal standard is added at a fixed concentration (e.g., 10-500 ng/mL). Samples are processed by protein precipitation or solid-phase extraction and analyzed by LC-MS/MS or GC-MS to determine absolute putrescine concentrations.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride is an internal standard and does not have independent pharmacokinetic parameters. Putrescine is an endogenous polyamine with a short half-life (minutes to hours) due to rapid metabolism by polyamine oxidases (PAO) and spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT). It is widely distributed in all tissues, with highest concentrations in the brain, prostate, and rapidly proliferating tissues. The deuterated version is used to calibrate analytical methods and does not alter the ADME properties of the endogenous analyte.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
1,4-Butanediamine-d8 dihydrochloride is a stable isotope-labeled internal standard with low toxicity as it is used at trace concentrations (ug-mg quantities). The unlabeled putrescine is an endogenous polyamine present in all mammalian cells at micromolar concentrations. High putrescine levels can be cytotoxic due to production of reactive oxygen species via polyamine oxidase activity. The deuterated version is chemically identical except for isotopic substitution. Standard laboratory safety precautions for handling organic compounds apply. Not intended for human consumption.
