Description

tetranor-PGDM-d6 contains six deuterium atoms at the 17, 17', 18, 18', 19 and 19' positions. It is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of tetranor-PGDM by GC- or LC-mass spectrometry (MS). Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is synthesized by hematopoietic-type PGD-synthase (H-PGDS) in mast cells and is released in large quantities during allergic and asthmatic anaphylaxis.1 PGD2 is also produced in the brain by lipocalin PGD-synthase also known as β-trace.2,3 In the brain, PGD2 produces normal physiological sleep and lowering of body temperature.2,3 Further pharmacological actions include inhibition of platelet aggregation and relaxation of vascular smooth muscle.4 tetranor-PGDM is a major metabolite of PGD2 that is detectable in human and murine urine.5 The levels of tetranor-PGDM and 2,3-dinor-11b-PGF, a related PGD2 metabolite, in human urine were found to be 1.5 ± 0.3 and 0.6 ± ng/mg creatinine, respectively. tetranor-PGDM was detected in mouse urine at a level of 8.1 ± 1.3 ng/mg creatinine.5

FAQs

It appears that there is a heterogenous mixture of deuterated species in your deuterated standards; is this normal?

Yes, this is typical of our deuterated products. Our deuterated products contain less than 1 % d0. However, the labeled compounds are not 100% of the deuterated form listed on our product insert. For example, upon analysis of 2-arachidonoyl glycerol-d8 it is expected to see masses associated with the d7, d6, d5 etc.
