2-Nonylquinolin-4(1H)-one-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of 2-nonylquinolin-4(1H)-one by GC- or LC-MS. 2-Nonylquinolin-4(1H)-one is a quinolone alkaloid that has been found in P. aeruginosa and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It reduces infection of Huh7.5 cells by hepatitis C virus (HCV) with an IC50 value of 1.4 µg/ml.1 2-Nonylquinolin-4(1H)-one (50 and 100 µg/ml) is also active against L. gongylophorus, a symbiotic fungus of the agricultural pest A. sexdens (leaf-cutting ant).2 It inhibits activation of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate and the calcium ionophore A23187 in Jurkat cells (IC50 = 3.44 µM), but not LPS-induced NF-κB activation in RAW 264.7 cells (IC50 = >100 µM), in reporter assays.3
