- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To study the plasma protein binding rate of decapeptide in several species. METHODS: Ultrafiltration was employed to separate the free and bound decapeptide, acetonitrile was used to precipitate protein, then the plasma concentration of decapeptide by HPLC-MS/MS. RESULTS: The plasma protein binding rates of decapeptide at low, middle and high concentrations (50.0, 100.0, and 800.0 ng·mL-1) were (95.9±1.1)%, (97.40±0.7)% and (94.9±0.6)% in SD rats,(96.8±0.8)%, (97.8±0.2)% and (96.9±0.5)% in Beagle dogs, and (97.3±1.0)%, (98.6±0.2 )% and (96.2±0.9)% in humans, respectively. The average plasma protein binding rate was 96.2% after subcutaneous administration at 200 μg·kg-1 in SD rats. And the average plasma protein binding rate was 97.1% after intramuscular injection at 320 μg·kg-1 in Beagle dogs. CONCLUSION: Decapeptide has potent binding ability to plasma protein in several species. The plasma protein binding rate of decapeptide is independent of its plasma concentrations.
