Tazarotenic acid-d₆  (Synonyms: AGN 190299-d₆)

Tazarotenic acid-d₆ is deuterium labeled Tazarotenic acid. Tazarotenic acid is the metabolite of Tazarotene. Tazarotenic acid binding to retinoic acid receptors (RARs) is the probable molecular target of retinoid action. Tazarotenic acid has the potential for the research of warty dyskeratoma^[1][2][3].

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.
