Valproic Acid-d4 usage and description
Valproic Acid D4, also known as 2-propylpentanoic acid D4, is a deuterated form of valproic acid, a medication used to treat various neurological and psychiatric conditions. Valproic Acid D4 is used primarily in research and clinical settings as a tracer molecule to study the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of valproic acid.
Valproic Acid D4 is a fatty acid derivative with a chemical formula of C8H9D4O2. It is a colorless, odorless liquid with a boiling point of 312 degrees Celsius. The deuterium atoms in Valproic Acid D4 replace four of the hydrogen atoms in valproic acid, making it useful for isotopic labeling studies.
Valproic Acid D4 is metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450 enzymes, primarily CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. Its pharmacological effects are due to its ability to increase the levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, a neurotransmitter that has inhibitory effects on the central nervous system.
Valproic Acid D4 has a variety of therapeutic uses, including the treatment of epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and migraines. However, its use is associated with potential side effects, such as liver toxicity, pancreatitis, and birth defects if taken during pregnancy. Therefore, its use should be closely monitored by a healthcare professional.
