5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid-d4
5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid-d4 (5-Methyl THF-d4) is the deuterium labeled 5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid (HY-113046). 5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-Methyl THF) is the main circulating form of folic acid in the body and is involved in a variety of biochemical reactions. 5-Methyltetrahydrofolic acid regulates cardiovascular function by increasing the production of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in low-density lipoprotein-treated endothelial cells and can be used in the study of cardiovascular diseases.

Biological Activity
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.
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
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.
