Abstract:
A rapid and validated UPLC-MS method was developed for investigating the absorbed components of Paederia scandens (Lour.) Merrill (P. scandensy) in rat plasma. The bioactive constituents in plasma samples from rats administrated orally with P. scandens extract were analyzed by Ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS). Four prototype compounds were identified in rat serum as potential bioactive components of P. scandens by comparing their retention times and mass spectrometry data or by mass spectrometry analysis and retrieving the reference literatures. Glucuronidation after deglycosylation was the major metabolic pathway for the iridoid glycosides in P. scandens. These results showed that the methods had high sensitivity and resolution and were suitable for identifying the bioactive constituents in plasma after oral administration of P. scandens. providing helpful chemical information for further pharmacological and mechanistic researched on the P. scandens.
