Xanomeline-d 3 (LY-246708-d 3 ) is deuterium labeled Xanomeline. Xanomeline, as an effective and selective muscarinic type 1 and type 4 ( M1/M4 ) receptor agonist, increases neuronal excitability. Xanomeline can be used for the research of neurological disorders, such as schizophrenia [1] [2].
In Vitro, Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs.
