Abstract
Melia. toosendan Sieb.et Zucc., a potent herbal medicine, boasts diverse therapeutic properties. As the main components, the isotoosendanin blocks protective autophagy in chemotherapy-induced cultured cancer cells and xenograft tumor tissue to significantly enhancing anticancer activity, and the fraxinellone contributes to pesticidal activity, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Until now, the metabolic profiles remained unknown. In the present study, 13 metabolites of isotoosendanin and 13 metabolites of fraxinellone were characterized in the blood, urine, and feces of rats by UPLC/ESI/qTOF-MS analysis. Five metabolites (F-M3, F-M5, I-M1, I-M5, I-M8) were fully characterized. The isotoosendanin and fraxinellone were mainly involved in hydrogenation, acetylation, and methylenation metabolic reactions. This is the first study illuminates the two components in vivo metabolism, laying the foundation for future pharmacodynamic and mechanistic investigations. It is necessary to deeply understand the process of drug activation, and deactivation, rationally design new drugs, and guide the research and development of new drugs.
期刊介绍:
Separation sciences, in all their various forms such as chromatography, field-flow fractionation, and electrophoresis, provide some of the most powerful techniques in analytical chemistry and are applied within a number of important application areas, including archaeology, biotechnology, clinical, environmental, food, medical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, polymer and biopolymer research. Beyond serving analytical purposes, separation techniques are also used for preparative and process-scale applications. The scope and power of separation sciences is significantly extended by combination with spectroscopic detection methods (e.g., laser-based approaches, nuclear-magnetic resonance, Raman, chemiluminescence) and particularly, mass spectrometry, to create hyphenated techniques. In addition to exciting new developments in chromatography, such as ultra high-pressure systems, multidimensional separations, and high-temperature approaches, there have also been great advances in hybrid methods combining chromatography and electro-based separations, especially on the micro- and nanoscale. Integrated biological procedures (e.g., enzymatic, immunological, receptor-based assays) can also be part of the overall analytical process.
