Abstract:
Objective: An UHPLC-MS/MS method was developed for the simultaneous determination of acteoside, isoacteoside, and forsythoside B in plasma of rats and the pharmacokinetic parameters for three phenolic glycosides were calculated as well. Methods: Samples of plasma of rats were obtained at different time after rats were administrated with Callicarpa nudiflora extract (5 g/kg). After the addition of acidification (hydrochloric acid, 0.25 mol/L) and deproteinization by acetonitrile, plasma samples were separated on a Phenomenex® Kinetex C18 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) with gradient elution using acetonitrile-0.005% formic acid as mobile phase. Mass spectrometric detection was carried out by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) using electrospray ionization in negative ion mode. Results: A good linearity of acteoside, isoacteoside, and forsythoside B was shown in the ranges of 7.77 - 3 880.00 ng/mL (r2 = 0.995 5), 5.04 - 2 520.00 ng/mL (r2 = 0.994 9), and 1.78 - 890.00 ng/mL (r2 = 0.995 1), respectively. The mean extraction recoveries of analytes were in the range of 75.2% - 89.9%, and the intra- and inter-day RSD values were less than 8.8%. The tmax of acteoside, isoacteoside, and forsythoside B was about 30 min, AUC0~t were (93 881.65 ± 18 326.65), (29 204.97 ± 8 499.88), and (15 027.05 ± 3763.82) ng∙min/mL, Cmax were (2 179.00 ± 355.60), (737.57 ± 210.31), and (227.30 ± 48.38) ng/mL, t1/2z were (235.41 ± 117.90), (151.56 ± 49.23), and (161.68 ± 63.92) min, respectively. Conclusion: The method is proved to be simple, rapid, and specific, and to be suitable for the simultaneous determination of acteoside, isoacteoside, and forsythoside B in plasma of rats and the pharmacokinetic study.
