| Bioactivity | Budesonide-d8 is the deuterium labeled Budesonide. Budesonide, an inhaled glucocortical steroid, is an orally active glucocorticoid receptor agonist. Budesonide decreases the size of lung tumors, reverses DNA hypomethylation and modulates mRNA expression of genes. Budesonide is an anti-inflammatory agent used for asthma[1][2][3]. |
| Invitro | 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]. |
