Necrosulfonamide-d 4 is the deuterium labeled Necrosulfonamide. Necrosulfonamide is a necroptosis inhibitor acting by selectively targeting the mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL). Necrosulfonamide prevents MLKL-RIP1-RIP3 necrosome complex from interacting with its downstream effectors. MLKL is a critical substrate of RIP3 during the induction of necrosis.
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. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
