3-O-Methyldopa-d3 hydrate
3-O-Methyldopa-d3 (hydrate) is the deuterium labeled 3-O-Methyldopa. 3-O-Methyldopa (3-Methoxy-L-tyrosine) hydrate is a metabolite of L-DOPA (HY-N0304) that can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). 3-O-Methyldopa hydrate inhibits the astrocyte-mediated protective effect of L-DOPA (HY-N0304) on dopaminergic neurons. In addition, 3-O-Methyldopa hydrate has certain antidepressant and neuroprotective activities. 3-O-Methyldopa hydrate can be used in the research of nervous system diseases such as depression and Parkinson's disease.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
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].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. Further protocols information, click here.
Application
1. This compound can be used as a tracer
2. This compound can be used as an internal standard for quantitative analysis by NMR, GC-MS, or LC-MS.

Human pluripotent stem cell midbrain dopaminergic neuron differentiation
Human pluripotent stem cells are directed toward midbrain dopaminergic neurons by first inducing a neural floor-plate-like progenitor state, then patterning cells with ventralizing SHH signaling and midbrain/WNT-FGF cues, and finally maturing progenitors into neurons expressing dopaminergic markers such as TH, NURR1/NR4A2, PITX3, DAT/SLC6A3, VMAT2/SLC18A2, GIRK2/KCNJ6, FOXA2, LMX1A, and EN1. The main readouts are loss of pluripotency, acquisition of FOXA2+/LMX1A+ midbrain floor-plate progenitors, emergence of βIII-tubulin+/MAP2+ neurons, and production of TH+ dopaminergic neurons with molecular, dopamine-release, and electrophysiological features of midbrain dopaminergic identity.
