Spironolactone -d 6 -1 is the deuterium labeled Spironolactone. Spironolactone is an aldosterone antagonist that acts on the aldosterone mineralocorticoid receptor (IC50 =24 nM) and androgen receptor (IC50 =77 nM), promotes podocyte autophagy and regulates pain. Spironolactone improves hypertension-related vascular hypertrophy and remodeling by reducing angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced inflammation, reduces aldosterone-induced vascular and soft tissue calcification through PIT1-dependent signaling, and alleviates vascular dysfunction in type II diabetic mice by reducing oxidative stress and restoring NO/GC signaling; at low concentrations, it and its metabolites can interfere with aldosterone biosynthesis in the adrenal cortex and inhibit voltage-dependent Ca 2+ channels to exert antihypertensive effects [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10].
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.
