Melatonin D5

[Synonym ]:
N-[1,1,2,2-tetradeuterio-2-(5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)ethyl]acetamide

Biological Activity

[Description]:

Melatonin D5 is deuterium labeled Melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland that can activates melatonin receptor. Antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties[1][2][3]. Melatonin is a selective ATF-6 inhibitor and induces human hepatoma cell apoptosis through COX-2 downregulation[4].
