Hydroxyprogesterone caproate-d8
Hydroxyprogesterone caproate-d8 (17α-Hydroxyprogesterone hexanoate-d8) is the deuterium labeled Hydroxyprogesterone caproate (HY-B0742). Hydroxyprogesterone caproate (17α-Hydroxyprogesterone hexanoate; 17α-Hydroxyprogesterone caproate) is a progesterone receptor (progesterone receptor) ligand and steroid hormone transcription inhibitor. Hydroxyprogesterone caproate downregulates estrogen receptors in target tissues and activates their metabolic pathways, and exhibits equivalent affinity for progesterone receptor A and progesterone receptor B. Hydroxyprogesterone caproate shows no consistent teratogenicity or developmental toxicity in rat, mouse and monkey models, but induces resorption or abortion in rhesus monkeys at human-equivalent doses. Hydroxyprogesterone caproate promotes the production of TNF-α in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated whole blood from non-pregnant women. Hydroxyprogesterone caproate can be used in scientific research related to preterm birth.

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[1].
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.
