Determination and pharmacokinetics of periplocin in rat plasma by LC‐MS

A simple and sensitive LC‐MS method for the determination of periplocin in rat plasma was developed and validated. The chromatographic separation was carried out using a reverse‐phase Kromasil C₁₈ column(150 × 4.6 mm, i.d., 5 µm) with a mobile phase composed of methanol–water (76:24, v/v). The flow rate of mobile phase was 0.8 mL/min. The calibration curve was linear within the concentration range 1–1000 ng/mL. The intra‐ and inter‐day precisions across three validation days over the entire concentration range was lower than 9.2% in terms of relative standard deviation. Accuracy determined at three quality control concentrations ranged from ?2.0 to 6.0% in terms of relative error. The validated method was applied to the pharmacokinetic study of periplocin in rat plasma after intravenous and intramuscular administration. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Simultaneous determination of eight bioactive components of Cirsium setosum flavonoids in rat plasma using triple quadrupole LC/MS and its application to a pharmacokinetic study

Cirsium setosum (Willd.) MB. has been reported to exert significant anti‐hemorrhagic, anti‐inflammation, antimicrobial, sedative and detoxicating efficacy. It has been widely used to treat gastrointestinal bleeding, uterine bleeding, infectious hepatitis and cardiovascular disease in China. Recent studies have shown that flavonoids are the main active components in C. setosum. Nevertheless, to the best of our knowledge, there is no report concerning the simultaneous determinations and pharmacokinetics of constituents in C. setosum flavonoids in rat plasma. In this study, a rapid, sensitive and selective triple quadrupole liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry method was developed to determine eight analytes from the flavonoids of C. setosum in rat plasma. In addition, the pharmacokinetic study of the eight analytes in rats after oral administration of C. setosum flavonoids was successfully completed through this method. According to the pharmacokinetic parameters of the eight analytes, rutin, naringin, quercetin, acacetin, wogonin were the long‐acting components of the C. setosum flavonoids, with long elimination time and high bioavailability. Of note, the method developed in this study fills a blank in pharmacokinetic studies of C. setosum flavonoids. Our findings provide valuable views on the understanding of the absorption mechanism of C. setosum flavonoids and their clinical efficacy.

Comparative pharmacokinetics study of orientin in rat plasma by UHPLC‐MS/MS after intravenous administration of single orientin and Trollius chinensis Bunge extract

Orientin showed a broad array of biological activities, and it is the major bioactive compound in the Trollius chinensis Bunge. The aim of this study was to investigate the comparative pharmacokinetics of orientin after intravenous administration of single orientin and T. chinensis Bunge extract. Sample preparation involved a simple one‐step deproteinization procedure with acetonitrile. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Waters BEH C₁₈ column with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water containing 0.1% formic acid in an isocratic elution way. The detection was accomplished in multiple reaction monitoring mode with positive electrospray ionization. The pharmacokinetic properties of orientin were compared after intravenous administrations of pure orientin and T. chinensis Bunge extract to rats with approximately the same dosage of 10 mg/kg. The results of the study indicate that the pharmacokinetics of orientin in rat plasma show significant differences between two groups. This is useful for the clinical uses of therapeutic dosing of orientin and T. chinensis Bunge.

The lower limit of quantification was established at 2.3 ng/mL. Intra‐ and inter‐day precisions (LLOQ, low‐QC, med‐QC and high‐QC) were <7.9%, and accuracies were between 94.0 and 105.1%. Matrix effect was acceptable (97.9–103.0%) and extraction recovery was reproducible (88.5–94.4%). Complanatoside A was stable in the investigated conditions.
