Abstract
Background: Cnidii Fructus (CF) is a herbal medicine with pharmacological activities such as antitumor, antiviral, antiallergic, antipruritic effects, and so on.
Objective: In this study, an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC- MS/MS) method was prepared and verified to measure the concentrations of seven analytes (bergapten, xanthotoxol, xanthotoxin, imperatorin, osthole, isopimpinellin, isoimperatorin) in HepG2 cells.
Methods: The separation of seven analytes was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column (2.1×100 mm, 1.7 μm) with a gradient mobile phase system of 0.1% formic acid/water and acetonitrile.
Results: The CV of analytes was within 7.77%, and the bias was in the range of -5.43%-3.84%. The matrix effects of analytes ranged from 92.95% to 104.58%, and the extraction recoveries ranged from 76.45% to 104.69%. The relative standard deviation of stability results was less than 8.21%, indicating that seven analytes were stable.
Conclusion: The method was successfully applied to the determination of the content of seven analytes of CF extracts by UPLC-MS/MS, and the results will provide a reference for the cellular pharmacokinetics of CF.
期刊介绍:
Current Drug Metabolism aims to cover all the latest and outstanding developments in drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and drug disposition. The journal serves as an international forum for the publication of full-length/mini review, research articles and guest edited issues in drug metabolism. Current Drug Metabolism is an essential journal for academic, clinical, government and pharmaceutical scientists who wish to be kept informed and up-to-date with the most important developments. The journal covers the following general topic areas: pharmaceutics, pharmacokinetics, toxicology, and most importantly drug metabolism.
More specifically, in vitro and in vivo drug metabolism of phase I and phase II enzymes or metabolic pathways; drug-drug interactions and enzyme kinetics; pharmacokinetics, pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling, and toxicokinetics; interspecies differences in metabolism or pharmacokinetics, species scaling and extrapolations; drug transporters; target organ toxicity and interindividual variability in drug exposure-response; extrahepatic metabolism; bioactivation, reactive metabolites, and developments for the identification of drug metabolites. Preclinical and clinical reviews describing the drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics of marketed drugs or drug classes.
