Lovastatin-d₃ hydroxy acid sodium  (Synonyms: 洛伐他汀钠-d₃)

Lovastatin-d₃ hydroxy acid (sodium) is the deuterium labeled Lovastatin hydroxy acid sodium. Lovastatin hydroxy acid sodium (Mevinolinic acid sodium) is a highly potent inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase with a Ki of 0.6 nM[1].

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^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
