Methotrexate metabolite-d₃  (Synonyms: DAMPA-d₃)

Methotrexate metabolite-d₃ is the deuterium labeled Methotrexate metabolite. Methotrexate metabolite (DAMPA), the active metabolite of Methotrexate. Methotrexate is a folic acid antagonist that is widely used as an immunosuppressant and chemotherapeutic agent[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.
