Tamoxifen-d₃ hydrochloride  (Synonyms: ICI 46474-d₃ hydrochloride; (Z)-Tamoxifen-d₃ hydrochloride; trans-Tamoxifen-d₃ hydrochloride)

Tamoxifen-d₃ hydrochloride is deuterated labeled Tamoxifen (Citrate) (HY-13757). Tamoxifen Citrate (ICI 46474) is an orally active, selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) which blocks estrogen action in breast cells and can activate estrogen activity in other cells, such as bone, liver, and uterine cells^[1][2][3].Tamoxifen Citrate is a potent Hsp90 activator and enhances the Hsp90 molecular chaperone ATPase activity. Tamoxifen Citrate also potent inhibits infectious EBOV Zaire and Marburg (MARV) with IC₅₀ of 0.1 μM and 1.8 μM, respectively^[5]. Tamoxifen Citrate activates autophagy and induces apoptosis^[4].Tamoxifen Citrate also can induce gene knockout of CreER(T2) transgenic mouse^[6].

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].
Tamoxifen Citrate (ICI 46474) shows strong inhibition of MCF-7 cells (EC₅₀=1.41 μM) and to a lesser extent the T47D cells (EC₅₀=2.5 μM) but does not affect the MDA-MB-231 cells^[3].
