Vitamin A-d6

Vitamin A-d6 (CAS No.: 2483831-77-0) is the stable isotope-labeled counterpart of Vitamin A (Retinol). By introducing deuterium atoms into the molecular structure, it provides a tool for metabolic studies, pharmacokinetic analysis, and quantitative detection in biomedical research and drug development. In the body, Vitamin A regulates gene expression by binding to retinoic acid receptors (RAR), influencing cell growth, differentiation, and immune function. In in vitro experiments, retinoic acid shows high affinity for RAR, with an IC50 of approximately 14 nM. In cell and animal models, Vitamin A-d6 is commonly used to trace the metabolic pathways and distribution of Vitamin A; the dose or concentration used in experiments typically depends on the experimental design and research objectives. Due to its stable isotope labeling properties, Vitamin A-d6 has important application value in drug screening and metabolism research.
