4-Hydroxynonenal-d3 is the deuterium labeled form of 4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), an α,β unsaturated hydroxyalkenal and an oxidative/nitrosative stress biomarker. It acts as both a substrate and an inhibitor of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2). This compound modulates signaling processes by forming covalent adducts with nucleophilic functional groups in proteins, nucleic acids, and membrane lipids, and plays an important role in cancer through mitochondria.
- Functions as a tracer and internal standard for quantitative analysis by NMR, GC-MS, or LC-MS.
- Stored as a solution at -20°C, protected from light, for up to 2 years.
- For research use only.
- Deuterium labeling can influence pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs.
