Abstract

Oxypeucedanin (OPD) is a linear furanocoumarin extracted from Chinese herbs, which has been reported to exhibit various pharmacological effects such as analgesia, antitussive, anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities. In this paper, the tissue distribution, excretion and metabolism characteristics of OPD in rat was conducted in order to better understand this compound and for potential development of OPD as a medicine. We first used the established HPLC/MS/MS method to examine the plasma protein binding rate and the tissue distribution of OPD in rats after oral administration. The excretion characteristics of OPD in urine, feces and bile, as well as its metabolic profiles in plasma, urine and bile were also investigated. The results demonstrated that after OPD administration, extensive metabolism occurred in rats, involving first-pass effect and enterohepatic circulation, with significant sex differences observed in the metabolic process. The study identified eight metabolites in rats, indicating that OPD metabolism primarily occurs through oxidation, reduction, and glucuronidation. In summary, this study systematically examined the basic process of OPD in vivo, providing a robust foundation for accurately predicting the behavior, efficacy and safety of OPD in humans.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Chromatography B publishes papers on developments in separation science relevant to biology and biomedical research including both fundamental advances and applications. Analytical techniques which may be considered include the various facets of chromatography, electrophoresis and related methods, affinity and immunoaffinity-based methodologies, hyphenated and other multi-dimensional techniques, and microanalytical approaches. The journal also considers articles reporting developments in sample preparation, detection techniques including mass spectrometry, and data handling and analysis. Developments related to preparative separations for the isolation and purification of components of biological systems may be published, including chromatographic and electrophoretic methods, affinity separations, field flow fractionation and other preparative approaches. Applications to the analysis of biological systems and samples will be considered when the analytical science contains a significant element of novelty, e.g. a new approach to the separation of a compound, novel combination of analytical techniques, or significantly improved analytical performance.
