DL-Norepinephrine-d₆ hydrochloride is the deuterium labeled DL-Norepinephrine hydrochloride. DL-Norepinephrine hydrochloride is an external racemic catecholamine neurotransmitter, which is an equal mixture of the left-handed (L-, with activity) and right-handed (D-, with very low or no activity) stereoisomers. DL-Norepinephrine hydrochloride after being labeled with tritium can be used as a tracer for the research on Parkinson's disease.

Melatonin-d₄ is deuterium labeled Melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland that can activates melatonin receptor. Antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. Melatonin is a selective ATF-6 inhibitor and induces human hepatoma cell apoptosis through COX-2 downregulation.

Melatonin-d₃ is the deuterium labeled Melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland that can activates melatonin receptor. Melatonin plays a role in sleep and possesses important antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. Melatonin is a novel selective ATF-6 inhibitor and induces human hepatoma cell apoptosis through COX-2 downregulation. Melatonin attenuates palmitic acid-induced (HY-N0830) mouse granulosa cells apoptosis via endoplasmic reticulum stress.

25-Hydroxycholesterol-d₆ (25-OHC-d₆) is the deuterium labeled 25-Hydroxycholesterol. 25-Hydroxycholesterol is a metabolite of cholesterol that is produced and secreted by macrophages in response to Toll-like receptor (TLR) activation. 25-hydroxycholesterol is a potent (EC₅₀≈65 nM) and selective suppressor of IgA production by B cells.

(±)-Equol-d₄ is the deuterium labeled (±)-Equol.

Ethynyl Estradiol-d₄ is the deuterium labeled Ethynyl Estradiol. Ethynyl Estradiol (17α-Ethynylestradiol;Ethynylestradiol) is an orally bio-active estrogen used in almost all modern formulations of combined oral contraceptive pills. Ethynyl Estradiol-d4 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.

Dinoprost-d₄ is the deuterium labeled Dinoprost. Dinoprost (Prostaglandin F2α) is an orally active, potent prostaglandin F (PGF) receptor (FP receptor) agonist. Dinoprost is a luteolytic hormone produced locally in the endometrial luminal epithelium and corpus luteum (CL). Dinoprost plays a key role in the onset and progression of labour.

3-Methoxytyramine-d₄ (hydrochloride) is the deuterium labeled 3-Methoxytyramine hydrochloride. 3-Methoxytyramine hydrochloride is an inactive metabolite of dopamine which can activate trace amine associated receptor 1 (TAAR1).

Cholesterol-d₆-1 is the deuterium labeled Cholesterol. Cholesterol is the major sterol in mammals. It is making up 20-25% of structural component of the plasma membrane. Plasma membranes are highly permeable to water but relatively impermeable to ions and protons. Cholesterol plays an important role in determining the fluidity and permeability characteristics of the membrane as well as the function of both the transporters and signaling proteins. Cholesterol is also an endogenous estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) agonist.

17a-Hydroxypregnenolone-d₃ (17-OHP5-d₃) is the deuterium labeled 17a-Hydroxypregnenolone (HY-113263). 17a-Hydroxypregnenolone is a metabolite of Pregnenolone (HY-B0151) and a precursor in the biosynthesis of Dehydroepiandrosterone (HY-14650). 17a-Hydroxypregnenolone is a substrate for the enzyme 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD).

Prostaglandin D2-d₄ is the deuterium labeled Prostaglandin D2. Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is one of the major PGs actively produced in the brain of various mammals. Prostaglandin D2 is one of the most potent endogenous sleep promoting substances. PGD2 plays a protective role by suppressing inflammation.

3-Indoleacetic acid-2,2-d₂ is the deuterium labeled 3-Indoleacetic acid (HY-18569). 3-Indoleacetic acid (Indole-3-acetic acid) is the most common natural plant growth hormone of the auxin class. It can be added to cell culture medium to induce plant cell elongation and division.

Estradiol-d₃ is the deuterium labeled Estradiol. Estradiol is a steroid sex hormone vital to the maintenance of fertility and secondary sexual characteristics in females. Estradiol upregulates IL-6 expression through the estrogen receptor β (ERβ) pathway.

Melatonin-d₇ is the deuterium labeled Melatonin (HY-B0075). Melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland that can activates melatonin receptor. Melatonin plays a role in sleep and possesses important antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties. Melatonin is a novel selective ATF-6 inhibitor and induces human hepatoma cell apoptosis through COX-2 downregulation. Melatonin attenuates palmitic acid-induced (HY-N0830) mouse granulosa cells apoptosis via endoplasmic reticulum stress.

Indoxyl Sulfate Potassium Salt-¹³C₆ is the ¹³C labeled Indoxyl Sulfate Potassium Salt.

Melengestrol acetate-d₃ is the deuterium labeled Melengestrol acetate. Melengestrol acetate is a progesterone derivative, acts as an orally active corticosteroid hormone to promote endometrial proliferation, pregnancy maintenance, and delay of menstrual activity. Melengestrol Acetate is used as a contraceptive agent for growth promoting effects and suppression of estrus in animals. Melengestrol acetate inhibits both the androgen-dependent and -independent prostatic tumors in vivo and can be used for cancer research.

Estradiol-d₂ is the deuterium labeled Estradiol. Estradiol is a steroid sex hormone vital to the maintenance of fertility and secondary sexual characteristics in females. Estradiol upregulates IL-6 expression through the estrogen receptor β (ERβ) pathway.
