Abstract:
AIM:To study the urinary pharmacokinetics of five anthraquinones after oral administration of Xiexin Decoction(Radix et Rhizoma rhei,Rhizoma coptidis and Radix scutellariae) in rats.METHODS:A high-performance liquid chromatographic method with fluorescence detection(HPLC-FLD) was established and validated the quantification for five anthraquinones(aloe-emodin,rhein,emodin,chrysophanol and physcion) in rat urine.SD rats were given 12 g/kg of Xiexin Decoction.Urine was collected before and after perfusion.Anthraquinones components in urine were measured by HPLC-FLD.Urinary pharmacokinetic parameters were determined according to urinary output-time data.RESULTS:After oral administration of Xiexin Decoction all the five anthraquinones were excreted from the urine.The excretion T_ 1/2 of aloe-emodin,rhein,emodin,chrysophanol and physcion were 3.46?1.18,3.24?0.60,4.69?1.99,4.49?1.63,5.65?1.74 h,respectively.The amounts of aloe-emodin,rhein,emodin,chrysophanol and physcion excreted from urine during 0~48 h were(11.28?4.30)?g,(116.73?17.46)?g,(5.48?2.92)?g,(9.53?2.67)?g,(0.41?0.20)?g,respectively.CONCLUSION:After oral administration of Xiexin Decoction five anthraquinones were excreted from urine and a small quantity of five anthraquinones excreted from urine in rats is less than 10% of oral dose.
