A high-throughput HPLC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the determination of four antihypertensive drugs including metoprolol tartrate, hydrochlorothiazide, nifedipine, and valsartan in rat plasma. The Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: A Group: gastric-administration of metoprolol tartrate, hydrochlorothiazide, nifedipine, or valsartan; B Group: a single intravenous injection of SXT, then dosing as the A group; C Group: daily injection of SXT through the tail vein for 8 consecutive days and dosing as the A group on the eighth day. For metoprolol tartrate and valsartan, blood samples were collected before administration and at time points 0.03, 0.08, 0.17, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 24 h from the fossa orbitalis vein. For hydrochlorothiazide and nifedipine, the time points were 0, 0.08, 0.17, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 24 h. The plasma samples containing different individual antihypertensive drug were mixed and prepared by protein precipitation with methanol. The chromatographic separation was performed on an Agilent Eclipse Plus C18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 3.5 μm) using gradient elution with mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water (containing 0.1% formic acid). The flow rate was 0.3 mL/min. The detection was accomplished on a tandem mass spectrometer with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in both positive and negative modes. The method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic interaction study of Shuxuetong injection on the antihypertensive drugs. The results suggested that SXT could increase the total amount of metoprolol tartrate and nifedipine in plasma and showed little influence on the pharmacokinetic behaviors of hydrochlorothiazide and valsartan.

Background: Pantoprazole and atorvastatin are often used jointly in the clinic. The drug-drug interaction of pantoprazole and atorvastatin is worthy of being investigated. Objective: A highly rapid, sensitive, and selective LC-MS/MS method was developed for simultaneous quantification of pantoprazole and atorvastatin in rat plasma. Methods: Omeprazole and atorvastatin-d5 were used as the internal standards (ISs) of pantoprazole and atorvastatin, respectively. Simple protein precipitation was used to extract analytes from 50.0 μL plasma samples. Results: The chromatographic separation was achieved on a C18 column and the total chromatographic run time was 3.2 min. Acquisition of mass spectrometric data was performed on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer in multiple- reaction-monitoring (MRM) mode with an ESI source using the transition m/z 384→ 200 for pantoprazole and m/z 559.4→ 440.2 for atorvastatin, respectively. The method was validated over the concentration range of 20.0 ∼ 5000 ng/mL for pantoprazole and 1.00 ∼ 250 ng/mL for atorvastatin. All the validation results, including linearity, specificity, precision, accuracy, extraction recovery, matrix effect, and stability, met the acceptance criteria as per FDA guidelines. Conclusion: This method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic interaction study in Wistar rats. The results revealed significant evidence for the drug-drug interaction between pantoprazole and atorvastatin.

Background: Modern pharmacological studies show that rhizoma coptidis has protective effects on the liver, gallbladder, kidney, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion, local hypoxia injury, antiinflammatory, bone injury, nerve cells and myocardial cells. The effective components have been isolated from picroside I, II, III and IV. Introduction: A selective and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous quantitative determination of picroside I, II, III and IV in rat plasma to aid the pharmacokinetics studies. Method: Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were orally administered with 10 mg/kg, intravenously injected with 1 mg/kg for the mixture of picroside I, II, III and IV. The biological samples were collected at 0.083 3 h, 0.25 h, 1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h. A UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm×50 mm, 1.7 μm) was used for chromatographic separation with the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid by gradient elution. The flow rate was 0.4 mL/min. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions were m/z 491.1→147.1 for picroside I, m/z 511.1→234.9 for picroside II, m/z 537.3→174.8 for picroside III and m/z 507.3→163.1 for picroside IV in negative ion mode. Result: The inter-day precision was less than 13%, the intra-day precision was less than 15%. The accuracy ranged from 89.4% to 111.1%. Recovery was higher than 79.1%, and the matrix effect ranged from 96.2% to 109.0%. Conclusion: The sensitive, rapid and selective UPLC-MS/MS method can be applied to the pharmacokinetic study of picroside I, II, III and IV in rats.

Aim: Nimodipine and 3-n-butylphthalide are co-administered to treat vascular dementia, but the pharmacokinetic interaction between the two drugs is still unknown. Therefore, a robust, high-throughput and economical supercritical fluid chromatography–ESI-MS/MS method has been initially developed to simultaneously determine nimodipine and 3-n-butylphthalide in beagle plasma, in order to study the safety of co-administration. Materials & methods: After a simple protein precipitation procedure, isocratic elution with mobile phase of CO2 and methanol (containing 0.3% formic acid and 2 mM ammonium acetate) was applied to minimize run time and facilitate sensitive and high-throughput bioanalysis. The method was fully validated according to US FDA Guidance. The validated method was then successfully applied in a pharmacokinetic interaction study. Results: The results indicated there is no significant pharmacokinetic interaction between the two drugs.

Abstract A simple and reliable high-performance liquid chromatography method for simultaneous quantitation of gliclazide and ciprofloxacin in plasma sample has been developed and validated. This method implements protein precipitation, a simple and practical pretreatment method by the addition of acetonitrile that gives a clean supernatant. The separation was carried out in a system consisted of a C18 column with acetonitrile and KH2PO4 (0.01 M, 0.1% v/v of triethylamine, pH 2.7) as the mobile phase in a gradient elution at a total flow-rate of 1 mL/min. Gliclazide and ciprofloxacin were quantitated using an ultraviolet detector set at wavelengths of 229 and 277 nm, respectively, which ensures optimal sensitivity for both compounds. This method possesses an excellent linearity at concentration ranges of 0.5–50 mg/L for gliclazide and 0.1–10 mg/L for ciprofloxacin. High within- and between-run accuracy for both gliclazide (% error of −8.00 to 0.45%) and ciprofloxacin (% error of −10.00 to 7.63%) were demonstrated. The intra- and inter-day precision (expressed as %CV) was <8 and 12% for gliclazide and ciprofloxacin, respectively. Both analytes were stable during storage and sample processing. The method reported in this study can be implemented for pharmacokinetic interaction study in rats.

AbstractTwelve Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups: Citrus suavissima Hort. ex Tanaka group and control group (n = 6). The rats in Citrus suavissima Hort. ex Tanaka group were given Citrus suavissima Hort. ex Tanaka juices (1 mL/100 g) by oral administration each day, continued for 14 days; the rats in control group were given Stroke-physiological saline solution (1 mL/100 g) by oral administration each day, continued for 14 days. The rats of these two groups were given a single oral administration of erlotinib (20 mg/kg) on the 15th day. After blood sampling at different time points and processing, the concentrations of erlotinib in rat plasma were determined by the established ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm × 50 mm, 1.7 μm) with erlotinib-d6 as an internal standard (IS). The initial mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and water (containing 0.1% formic acid) with gradient elution. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) modes were utilized to conduct quantitative analysis. The sensitive, rapid and selective UPLC-MS/MS method was successfully applied to analyse the effect of Citrus suavissima Hort. ex Tanaka on pharmacokinetics of erlotinib in rat plasma. There were no significant differences in AUC(0−t), t1/2, Tmax, CL, Cmax between the two groups (P > 0.05). While MRT(0−t) was decreased (P < 0.05) in Citrus suavissima Hort. ex Tanaka group, compared to the control group. It showed that Citrus suavissima Hort. ex Tanaka could not affect the metabolism of erlotinib.

Background: Zishen Tongguan (ZSTG) capsules were prepared at the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine and have been proven to be clinically effective for treating pyelonephritis and benign prostatic hyperplasia. However, the quality standards are not ideal; a comprehensive study of the “quality markers” (Q-markers), the chemicals inherent in traditional Chinese medicine and its preparations, has not been carried out. Experimental Methods: In this paper, a sensitive and specific ultra-high-performance liquid chromatographictandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of eight potential Q-markers of ZSTG, including timosaponin A3, berberine, jatrorrhizine, phellodendrine, palmatine, mangiferin, neomangiferin, and timosaponin BII. A Kromasil 100-3.5 C18 column was used with a mobile phase of 0.2% formic acid with acetonitrile, and gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min was achieved in 13 minutes and used for separation. Detection was performed in positive/negative mode with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). Results: The analytical method was validated in terms of the sensitivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, repeatability, stability and recovery. The method established here was successfully applied to study the potential Q-markers in 8 batches of commercial samples, which demonstrated its use in improving the quality control of ZSTG. Conclusion: The developed method had high repeatability and accuracy and was suitable for the simultaneous analysis of multiple Q-markers, which may provide a new basis for the comprehensive assessment and overall quality control of ZSTG.
