| Targets |
Target: Voltage-gated Sodium Channels (Nav channels). Ropivacaine is a potent sodium channel blocker, reversibly inhibiting sodium ion influx through voltage-gated sodium channels (primarily Nav1.7, Nav1.8) in nerve fibers. This prevents the generation and propagation of action potentials, leading to nerve impulse conduction blockade. It also inhibits the K2P (two-pore domain potassium channel) TREK-1 with an IC50 of 402.7 microM in COS-7 cell membranes. The labeled version is an analytical standard.

| 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, the labeled standard has no direct biological activity. The unlabeled ropivacaine (10-1000 uM) causes concentration-dependent blockade of sodium channels in isolated nerve preparations (e.g., frog sciatic nerve, rat vagus nerve) and in cultured dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, as measured by voltage clamp electrophysiology. It also shows use-dependent block, meaning it binds more effectively to channels in the active/inactivated state. The S-enantiomer (ropivacaine is a pure S-(-)-enantiomer) has lower cardiotoxicity than racemic bupivacaine and similar anesthetic potency. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, the unlabeled ropivacaine is used clinically as a local anesthetic for epidural, spinal, and peripheral nerve blocks, as well as for surgical anesthesia and postoperative pain management. It produces reversible loss of sensation (analgesia) and motor function (muscle relaxation) in the innervated region. Compared to bupivacaine, ropivacaine has a faster onset, similar duration, and reduced cardiotoxicity and neurotoxicity. The labeled standard is not administered in vivo but is used as an internal standard for PK studies of ropivacaine.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For cell-free assays (LC-MS/MS): plasma, serum, or urine samples are spiked with Ropivacaine-d7 internal standard. After protein precipitation with acetonitrile or methanol, and centrifugation, the supernatant is injected into an LC-MS/MS system. A C18 reverse-phase column and positive ion mode ESI-MS/MS are typically used. Quantitation is based on the analyte/internal standard peak area ratio. Isotope dilution mass spectrometry is used to correct for matrix effects and ensure accurate quantification of ropivacaine and its metabolites (e.g., 3-OH-ropivacaine). The deuterated standard co-elutes with the unlabeled analyte, providing an internal standard with identical extraction recovery and ionization efficiency.
|
| Cell Assay |
No cell-based assays are performed with the deuterated standard. The unlabeled ropivacaine is tested in sodium channel-expressing cell lines (e.g., HEK293 cells transfected with Nav1.7 or Nav1.8 channels) for electrophysiology studies. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings are performed to measure sodium currents. Ropivacaine (0.1-1000 uM) is applied to the cells, and inhibition of sodium current is recorded. IC50 values and use-dependent block are determined. The labeled standard is not used in these assays.
|
| Animal Protocol |
No animal studies are conducted with the labeled internal standard itself. For PK studies of ropivacaine, animals (rats, rabbits, dogs) are administered the drug intravenously, epidurally, or by peripheral nerve block. Serial blood samples are collected, plasma is processed, and the deuterated internal standard is used in LC-MS/MS bioanalysis to determine ropivacaine concentrations. PK parameters (Cmax, Tmax, t1/2, AUC, volume of distribution, clearance) are calculated. The standard is also used in tissue distribution and metabolism studies to measure ropivacaine and its metabolites in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), liver, kidney, and other tissues.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
PK properties of ropivacaine: After IV administration, it has a plasma half-life of approximately 2-3 h. After epidural administration, peak plasma concentrations occur at 30-60 min (Tmax). Plasma protein binding is high (>90%, primarily to alpha1-acid glycoprotein). It is extensively metabolized in the liver by CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 to its major metabolite, 3-hydroxy-ropivacaine, which has less than 10% of the parent‘s anesthetic activity. Approximately 10-15% of the dose is excreted unchanged in urine. The clearance is reduced in patients with hepatic impairment or low alpha1-acid glycoprotein levels (e.g., neonates). The deuterated standard co-elutes with the analyte, ensuring accurate PK parameter determination.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No toxicity data are reported for the deuterated standard. The unlabeled ropivacaine has a well-characterized safety profile: common adverse effects include hypotension, nausea, vomiting, bradycardia, and paresthesia. High doses can cause CNS toxicity (dizziness, tinnitus, seizures, respiratory depression) and cardiotoxicity (prolonged PR interval, QT prolongation, arrhythmias, cardiac arrest). However, ropivacaine has lower CNS and cardiotoxicity than bupivacaine due to its S-enantiomer configuration. The labeled compound is for research use only and is not intended for human therapeutic administration. It is non-hazardous for transport under normal laboratory conditions.

| Additional Infomation |
Ropivacaine-d7 is a research standard and not an active drug substance. The unlabeled ropivacaine (Naropin, Ropivan) is FDA-approved for the induction and maintenance of local anesthesia for surgical procedures, including epidural anesthesia for labor and delivery, spinal anesthesia, peripheral nerve blocks, and local infiltration. It is also used for postoperative pain management. The deuterated standard is used for analytical method development, method validation (AMV), quality control (QC), and abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) submissions for ropivacaine-containing pharmaceutical products. It is essential for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in patients receiving regional anesthesia and for clinical PK studies.
