Determination of the chemical constituents of the different processed products of Anemarrhena asphodeloides Rhizomes by high‐performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry

In this work, high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with a hybrid quadrupole time of‐flight mass spectrometry (Q‐TOF‐MS/MS) was used to study chemical compositions of different processed products of Rhizoma Anemarrhenae (RA). A Grace Alltima^TM C₁₈ column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) was used for separation. Mobile phase consisted of 0.1% formic acid and acetonitrile, using gradient elution. ESI‐MS data was acquired in both positive and negative mode. The experiment was established on the basis of a series of reference substances (two xanthone and seven saponins) to qualitatively identify the chemical compounds of different processed products of RA by MS analysis. There was no difference in the type of chemical constituents between different processed products of RA. A total of 25 compounds were identified, including four xanthones, 21 steroidal saponins and eight pairs of isomers. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

基于LIBS的山药饮片产地溯源研究

山药为薯蓣科植物薯蓣的根茎,其中的多糖、多酚、皂苷、黏蛋白和维生素C等成分使山药具有抗肿瘤、抗氧化、抗炎症、降血糖和降血脂等作用。不同产地的山药由于生长条件存在差异,致使药用成分含量显著不同,结合独特的炮制工艺,进而导致市场价格差别大,所以山药饮片的产地识别至关重要。为对山药饮片进行产地溯源,本文基于激光诱导击穿光谱(LIBS)技术提出多元散射矫正-改进遗传算法-支持向量机(MSC-IGA-SVM)模型对山药产地进行精确识别。使用八个不同产地的山药饮片进行LIBS实验,八种产地的山药饮片磨粉过筛后制成粉末压片,通过采集山药饮片的LIBS光谱,分别使用单一分类器与使用光谱预处理、特征提取及模式识别算法的模型对光谱的识别结果进行对比。将光谱信号按2∶1的比例划分为训练集和测试集,使用5次交叉验证K-邻近算法(KNN)模型的测试集准确率作为预处理参数优化的评价指标。各类药材的平均光谱整体趋势一致,所含谱峰基本相同,但因产地不同导致峰值强度各不相同,道地山药对一些金属元素(K, Na, Ca, Mg, Al)的富集能力大于非道地产区山药,其中,K元素特征谱线(769.90 nm)的峰值最高,即...     

Determination of ligustilide in rat blood and tissues by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

A gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) method was developed to study the pharmacokinetics of ligustilide following oral administration to rats. The method was used for the analysis of samples taken from rats. Biological samples were prepared by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) using an n-hexane-ether (2:1) solvent mixture for a sample clean-up step and analyzed by GC/MS with a quadrupole MS detector in selected ion monitoring mode (m/z 190). The calibration curves were linear over the concentration range 0.172-8.60 microg/mL (r > 0.99) for blood samples and a different range (r > 0.99) for different tissue samples. The limit of detection (LOD) was 1.0 ng/mL or 1.0 ng/g (three times the signal-noise ratio). Within- and between-day precision expressed as the relative standard deviation (RSD) for the method was 1.58-3.88 and 2.99-4.91%, respectively. The recovery for all samples was >80%, except for liver samples (>70%). The main pharmacokinetic parameters obtained were: T(max) = 0.65 +/- 0.07 h, C(max) = 1.5 +/- 0.2 microg/mL, AUC = 34 +/- 6 h microg/mL and K(a) = 3.5 +/- 0.6/h. The experimental results showed that ligustilide was easily absorbed, but its elimination was slow, from 3 to 12 h after oral administration. The concentrations of ligustilide in rat cerebellum, cerebrum, spleen and kidney were higher than those in other organs.     

High-throughput serum metabolomics analysis of gouty arthritis rat treated by total saponins of Rhizoma Dioscoreae Makino by UPLC–Q/TOF–MS

Rhizoma Dioscoreae Makino (RDM) is effective in treating gouty arthritis (GA) and hyperuricacidemia, especially in promoting uric acid excretion and reducing the inflammatory reaction. Bioactive constituents in RDM are mainly steroidal saponins such as dioscin, trillin, protodioscin and protogracillin. However, the mechanism of its anti-GA action is still unclear, owing to the complex pathological and physiological characteristics of GA, and integration of RDM with multiple components, multiple targets and multiple pathways. Herein, a GA rat model was induced with monosodium urate (MSU), and RDM reduced inflammation of rat synovium tissue. Through metabolomics analysis, 35 potential biomarkers with significant changes involved in the pathogenesis of GA induced by MSU were identified, and perturbations were restored after RDM treatment. The most correlated pathways involved in d -galactose, d -mannose, d -glucose, myoinositol, Phosphatidylcholine (PC) (16:0/16:0), LysoPC (15:0), phosphatidic acid (PA) [18:1(9Z)/18:1(11Z)] and glutathione induced by MSU were galactose metabolism, inositol phosphate metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism and glutathione metabolism, and the derivations of all those biomarkers could be regulated by RDM treatment. RDM has a therapeutic effect on GA by intervening in changes in endogenous metabolisms and the related metabolic pathways.
