7,8-Dihydro-L-biopterin is a NOS uncoupling inducer that can cross the blood-brain barrier. It is a reduced non-conjugated pteridine and the main metabolite of 4-amino-tetrahydro-L-biopterin, which undergoes photooxidation to form biopterin. This compound promotes the conversion of nitric oxide synthase to a superoxide-producing form, leading to increased oxidative stress in the renal outer medulla and inducing apoptosis.
