Anlotinib is a novel inhibitor of receptor kinase tyrosine with multitargets and has a broad spectrum of inhibitory action on tumor angiogenesis and growth. A simple and rapid UHPLC-MS/MS bioanalytical method was validated for the determination of anlotinib in rat plasma, using imatinib as an internal standard. An Acquity BEH C18 column was used to separate analytes. The eluents consisted of formic acid/water (0.1 : 100, v/v) and acetonitrile with a mobile phase. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer was operated for the quantification with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) to determine transitions: 408.2 ⟶ 339.1 for anlotinib, and 494.3 ⟶ 394.1 for imatinib. The validated range was 0.1–50 ng/mL for anlotinib. Mean recovery rate of anlotinib in plasma was ≥99.32% and reproducible. Also, the intra- and interday precisions were both below 15%. This robust method was successfully applied to support the pharmacokinetic study of anlotinib in rats.

Abstract Background: The raw and processed roots of Polygonum multiflorum Thunb (PM) are commonly used in clinical practice to treat diverse diseases; however, the reports of hepatotoxicity induced by Polygoni Multiflori Radix (PMR) and Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata (PMRP) have emerged worldwide. Thus, it is necessary for researcher to explore the methods to improve its quality standards and further ensure its quality and treatment effect.Methods: In the present study, an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QQQ- MS/MS) method has been optimized and validated for the determination of dianthrones in PMR and PMRP, using bianthronyl as the internal standard. Chromatographic separation with a gradient mobile phase (A: acetonitrile and B: water containing 0.1% formic acid (v/v)) at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min was achieved on a Waters Acquilty UPLC BEH b) C18 column (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.7 µm). A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (TQMS) was operated in negative ionization mode with multiple reaction monitoring for the quantitative analysis of six dianthrones. Meanwhile, compounds 5 and 6 were further evaluated for cytotoxicity of HepaRG cells by CCK8 assay.Results: The UHPLC-QQQ-MS/MS method was first developed to simultaneous determination of six dianthrones in PMR and PMRP, namely polygonumnolides C1–C4 (1–4), trans-emodin dianthrones (5), and cis-emodin dianthrones (6). The contents of 1~6 in 90 batches of PMR were in the range of 0.027-19.04, 0.022-13.86, 0.073 -15.53, 0.034 -23.35, 0.38-83.67 and 0.29 -67.00 µg/g, respectively. The contents of 1~6 in 86 batches of commercial PMRP were in the range of 0.020-13.03, 0.051-8.94, 0.022-7.23, 0.030 -12.75, 0.098-28.54 and 0.14-27.79 µg/g, respectively. The six dianthrones were almost completely gone after reasonable processing for 24 h. Meanwhile, compounds 5 and 6 showed the inhibitory activity against HepaRG cells with the IC50 values of 10.98 and 15.45 μM, respectively. Furthermore, a systematic five-step strategy to realize the standardization of TCMs with endogenous toxicity is proposed for the first time, involving the establishment of determination methods, determination of the toxic markers, the standardization of processing method, the development of limit standards and benefit-risk assessment.Conclusion: The results of cytotoxicity evaluation of dianthrone indicated that trans-emodin dianthrones (5) and cis-emodin dianthrones (6) could be selected as the toxic markers of PMRP. Taking PMR and PMRP for example, we hope this study provided insight into the standardization and internationalization of endogenous toxic TCMs, with the main purpose of improving public health by scientifically using TCMs to treat diverse complex diseases in future.

Objective: Apatinib, a novel small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), is under development to treat advanced gastric cancer. As to pharmacokinetic evaluation and routine drug monitoring of apatinib, a quantitative ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method in rat plasma was developed with tinidazole used as an internal standard (IS). Method: Protein precipitation (PPT) was selected as a sample pre-treatment method to extract apatinib. Then chromatography was performed on a Kinetex C8 column (2.1×100 mm, 2.6 μm) using a constant mobile phase including 0.2% formic acid and 10 mM ammonium acetate in water and methanol (30:70, v/v) with a gradient flow rate from 0.2 mL/min to 0.4 mL/min. Only 4.5 min was for a total chromatographic analysis. Mass spectrometric detection was carried on positive electrospray ionization (ESI+) mode with multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM). Results: Standard calibration curve showed good linearity in 2-1000 ng/mL with the correlation coefficient (R2) > 0.99. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) was 2 ng/mL. The precision, accuracy, extraction recovery, matrix effect, stability and carryover were all within acceptable range. Conclusion: This method was simple, accurate, selective and successfully used for a pharmacokinetic study following seven rats orally administrated a single of 60 mg/kg apatinib.

Abstract An uncomplicated, sensitive liquid chromatography linked to mass spectrometry (LC/MS) for evaluation of carbamazepine and carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide (its metabolite) in human plasma, human saliva, rat plasma, and rabbit plasma was developed. Analyses were conducted on a Zorbax SB-C18, 100 mm × 3 mm ID, 3.5 μm column, at a column temperature of 40 ºC. The mobile phase was comprised of 0.1% formic acid in water and methanol in a 35 : 65 (v/v) ratio, with a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Lacosamide was utilized as internal standard. Under these chromatographic conditions, the retention times of lacosamide, carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide, and carbamazepine were 1.4 min, 1.6 min, and 2.2 min, respectively. The quantification of the analytes was performed using multiple reaction monitoring, with the use of a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer with electrospray positive ionization. The monitored ions were m/z 194 derived from m/z 237 for carbamazepine, m/z 180 derived from m/z 253 for carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide, and m/z 108 derived from m/z 251 for lacosamide. The samples were prepared by protein precipitation from 0.2 mL of plasma/saliva using 0.6 mL of internal standard solution in methanol. Calibration curves were constructed over the ranges 1.1–17.6 µg/mL and 0.23–5.47 µg/mL for carbamazepine and carbamazepine-epoxide, respectively. The coefficients of determination obtained by using a weighted (1/x) linear regression were greater than 0.994. The reported LC-MS/MS method was applied to preclinical pharmacokinetic studies and therapeutic drug monitoring.

AbstractNarciclasine is a 7-hydroxy derivative of lycorisidine. It was the first alkaloid isolated from the stem of narcissus (Amaryllidaceae) in 1967. Six mice were given narciclasine (5 mg/kg) by intravenous administration. A UPLC-MS/MS method was developed to determine narciclasine in mouse blood. Tectorigenin (internal standard, IS) and narciclasine were gradient eluted by mobile phase of methanol and 0.1% formic acid in a BEH C18 column. The multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) of m/z 308.1→248.1 for narciclasine and m/z 301.1→286.0 for IS with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source was used for quantitative determination. The calibration curve ranged from 1 to 6,000 ng/mL. The accuracy was from 92.5 to 107.3%, and the matrix effect was between 103.6 and 107.4%. The developed UPLC-MS/MS method was successfully applicated to a pharmacokinetic study of narciclasine in mice after intravenous administration (5 mg/kg).

Abstract The aim of this study was to develop and validate a new, rapid, sensitive, selective and reliable liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method for simultaneous determination of 3-O-Acetyl-11-keto-β-boswellic acid (AKBA) and its active metabolite 3-O-Acetyl-11-hydroxy-β-boswellic acid (Ac-11-hydroxy-BA) in rat plasma. Both analytes (AKBA and Ac-11-hydroxy-BA) and the internal standard (IS, ursolic acid) were extracted from 100 μL of rat plasma by protein precipitation. Chromatographic separation was achieved on PRP-H1 RP-C18 column (75 mm × 2 mm, 1.6 μm) using acetonitrile–water (95.5 v/v) as the mobile phase. Mass detection was conducted by electrospray ionization in positive ion multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. A linear dynamic range of 1–1,000 ng/mL for both AKBA and Ac-11-hydroxy-BA was established with mean correlation coefficient (r (1)) of 0.999. Intra- and inter-day precision (% CV) of analysis were found in the range of 1.9–7.4%. The accuracy determined for these analytes ranged from 92.4 to 107.2%. The extraction recoveries for both analytes ranged from 92.6 to 97.3% for spiked plasma samples and were consistent. The % change in stability samples compared to nominal concentration ranged from 0.4 to 4.2%. This method was successfully tested to a pharmacokinetic (PK) study for estimation of AKBA and acetyl-11-hydroxy-BA in rat plasma following oral administration of AKBA. This method has been validated with the advantage of shorter run time that can be used for high-throughput analysis and has been successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of AKBA in rats.

Abstract A simple, precise, and rapid LC/MS/MS method was developed and validated for the quantification of emtricitabine in human plasma using lamivudine as the internal standard (IS). The method involves liquidliquid extraction of emtricitabine and the IS in diethyl etherethyl acetate (50 + 50, v/v) from 0.1 mL human plasma. A Kromasil C18 (150 4.6 mm, 5 m particle size) analytical column was used for the chromatographic separation under isocratic conditions. The parent product ion transitions for emtricitabine (m/z 248.0130.0) and the IS (m/z 230.1 112.0) were monitored on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer, operated in the multiple reaction monitoring positive ion mode. The method was validated over the concentration range of 29.23110 ng/mL for emtricitabine, with a total chromatographic run time of 1.5 min. Acceptable precision and accuracy were obtained for the concentrations used to prepare the standard curves. The applicability of the method was demonstrated by a pharmacokinetic study conducted with 43 healthy volunteers who were administered a capsule formulation containing 200 mg emtricitabine.

Abstract An analytical multiresidue method using HPLC/MS/MS with a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer in the multiple reaction monitoring mode for the simultaneous determination of 54 pesticides in soil has been developed. The procedure involved initial single-phase extraction of soil sample with acetonitrile by sonication, followed by liquidliquid partitioning after addition of NaCl. The average recovery by the HPLC/MS/MS method obtained for these compounds varied from 63.2 to 113.8, with an RSD between 1.9 and 7.1. The method gave good linearity over the assay range of 10500 g/L (except famoxadone, 501000 g/L); the LOD and LOQ for the pesticides varied from 0.02 to 13.2 and from 0.1 to 43.9 g/kg, respectively. The proposed method was used to determine pesticide levels in soil samples from two experimental vineyards and two tomato greenhouses.

In this study, we used UPLC–MS/MS to determine diosmetin-7-o-β-d-glucoside in rat plasma and investigated its pharmacokinetics in rats. Six rats were given diosmetin-7-o-β-d-glucoside (5 mg/kg) by intravenous (i.v.) administration. The blood (150 μL) was withdrawn from the caudal vein after administration. Diazepam was used as an internal standard (IS), and a one-step acetonitrile precipitation method was used to process the plasma samples. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a UPLC BEH C18 column using a mobile phase of acetonitrile–0.1% formic acid with gradient elution. Electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode with positive ionization was applied, 463.1 → 301.0 for diosmetin-7-o-β-d-glucoside, m/z 285.1 → 193.0 for diazepam (IS). Intra-day and inter-day precision of diosmetin-7-o-β-d-glucoside in rat plasma were less than 14%. The method was successfully applied in the pharmacokinetics of diosmetin-7-o-β-d-glucoside in rats after intravenous administration. The t1/2 of diosmetin-7-o-β-d-glucoside is 1.4 ± 0.4 h, which indicates the quick elimination.
