Desloratadine-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of desloratadine (Item No. 16931) by GC- or LC-MS. Desloratadine is a histamine H1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 0.97 nM) and an active metabolite of loratadine (Item No. 15625).1,2 It is formed from loratadine primarily by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and CYP2C19.3 It also inhibits calcium flow in neurons and glia in vitro (IC50s = 9.177 and 0.3185 µM, respectively), an effect that can be blocked by knockdown of the 5-HT receptor subtype 5-HT2A.4 Desloratadine (10 mg/kg) reduces ovalbumin-induced sneezing, nose rubbing, eye watering, and congestion in ovalbumin-sensitized guinea pigs.5 It also increases the clearance of amyloid-β by microglia and reverses learning and memory deficits in the Morris water maze in the transgenic APP/PS1 mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease when administered at a dose of 20 mg/kg per day.4 Formulations containing desloratadine have been used in the treatment of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria.
