Similar to metabolites of other aminergic transmitters, histamine metabolites of brain, tele-methylhistamine (t-MH) and tele-methylimidazoleacetic acid (t-MIAA), could have a concentration gradient between rostral and caudal sites of CSF. To test this hypothesis, cisternal and lumbar CSF samples were collected in pairs from eight monkeys (Macaca mulatta), and levels of t-MH and t-MIAA were measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. pros-Methylimidazoleacetic acid (p-MIAA), an endogenous isomer of t-MIAA that is not a histamine metabolite, was also measured. Cisternal levels (in picomoles per milliliter, mean +/- SEM) of t-MH (9.9 +/- 1.4) and t-MIAA (40.8 +/- 7.6), but not of p-MIAA (9.7 +/- 1.2), exceeded those in lumbar CSF (t-MH, 1.8 +/- 0.3; t-MIAA, 6.8 +/- 0.9; p-MIAA, 8.6 +/- 0.6) in every monkey. The magnitudes of the mean cisternal-lumbar concentration gradients for t-MH (6.6 +/- 1.1) and t-MIAA (6.5 +/- 1.3) were indistinguishable. These gradients exceed those of metabolites of most other transmitters. There was no gradient for the levels of p-MIAA. The cisternal, but not lumbar, levels of t-MH and t-MIAA were correlated. There was no significant difference between the means of the metabolite concentration ratios (t-MIAA/t-MH) in cisternal (4.0 +/- 0.4) and lumbar (4.4 +/- 0.9) CSF. The steepness of these gradients suggests that levels of t-MH and t-MIAA in lumbar CSF might be useful probes of histaminergic metabolism in brain. 相似文献

A new 2-phenyl-4-[4-(1,4,7,10-tetraoxa-13-azacyclopentadecyl)benzylidene]-5-oxazolone (CPO) derivative was utilized to develop an optical acetylcholinesterase (AChE) biosensor in which the azlactone derivative was embedded in plasticized polyvinylchloride (PVC) matrix. The sensor system was calibrated for the detection of acetylcholine (ACh) and donepezil which is a competitive cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitor. Two different biosensing systems were developed by using AChE enzyme in solution and immobilized together with the fluorescent derivative (CPO) doped in transparent PVC membrane. The enzymatic hydrolysis of ACh was monitored by following changes in the pH induced fluorescence intensity. When AChE enzyme was immobilized in PVC matrix together with CPO, the sensitivity of the measuring system has increased approximately three times for ACh, in comparison to the sensing system where AChE enzyme was in solution phase.
The photophysical parameters of CPO were also examined in solvents of tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetonitrile (ACN) and dichloromethane (DCM) and in solid matrix of PVC. The azlactone derivative exhibits excellent photostability in PVC matrix. 相似文献

An in vivo microdialysis sampling method coupled with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was employed for continuous simultaneous monitoring of unbound baicalin in rat blood and brain. Microdialysis probes were inserted into the jugular vein and brain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of Sprague-Dawley rats then, following administration of baicalin at doses of 24mg/kg via the candal vein, samples were collected every 20min and injected directly into the UPLC-MS/MS system. In vitro recoveries of the probes were 19.26% and 18.38%, while in vivo recoveries of the probes were 15.0% and 17.52% for blood and brain, respectively. This improved method offers a rapid quantitative procedure for the determination of baicalin with a retention time of only 1.6min. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) and the lower limit of detection (LLOD) based on a signal-to-noise ratio of 5 were 2.37 and 0.1ng/ml for anticoagulant citrate dextrose (ACD) solution, and 1.185 and 0.3ng/ml for artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF), respectively. The pharmacokinetics results indicated that baicalin could pass through the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and was detectable in brain dialysate. These in vivo microdialysis-based measurements provide a technique for simple sampling and rapid sensitive analysis of unbound baicalin in rat blood and CSF and for further application in pharmacokinetic studies. 相似文献

Cerebrospinal fluid acetylcholinesterase changes after treatment with donepezil in patients with Alzheimer's disease 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We analyzed whether donepezil differently influences acetylcholinesterase (AChE) variants from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) after long-term treatment. Overall CSF-AChE activity in AD patients before treatment was not different from controls, but the ratio between the major tetrameric form, G(4), and the smaller G(1) and G(2) species was significantly lower. AChE levels at study outset were found to correlate positively with beta-amyloid (1-42) (Abeta42). When patients were re-examined after 12 months treatment with donepezil, there was a remarkable increase in both the G(4) and the lighter species of CSF AChE. As compared with placebo, donepezil caused decreases in the percentage of AChE that failed to bind to the lectin concanavalin A and the antibody AE1. These non-binding species comprised primarily a small subset of G(1) and G(2) forms. In treated patients, these light variants were the only subset of CSF AChE that correlated with CSF-Abeta42 levels. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis showed that a 77-kDa band, attributed in part to inactive AChE, was lower in AD patients than in controls. Unlike enzyme activity, the intensity of this band did not increase after donepezil treatment. The varying responses of different AChE species to ChE-I treatment suggest different modes of regulation, which may have therapeutic implications. 相似文献

A sensitive, accurate, and specific quantitative UPLC-MS/MS method was developed for lactose measurement of cow's and human milk and validated with cow's milk samples certified by an external laboratory. The new method employs only a dilution of raw cow's and human milk for simple preparation with no need to remove protein and fat prior to analysis with UPLC-MS/MS. It was operated in negative mode to detect lactose molecules and labeled (13)C(12)-lactose with the highest sensitivity. The principle advantages of the new LC-MS/MS method were: completed lactose determination in 5 min, absolute recovery of 97-107%, lower limit of detection <5 ng/L, and 99% linearity over the concentration range of 0.7-4.4 mg/L for both cow's and human milk. The mean lactose concentration of 51 human milk samples was measured as 56.8 ± 5.5 g/L ranging from 43 to 65 g/L. The described method represents validated lactose analysis with high accuracy and precision for a routine lactose determination in raw human milk. 相似文献

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of pervasive developmental disorders with core symptoms such as sociability deficit, language impairment, and repetitive/restricted behaviors. Although worldwide prevalence of ASD has been increased continuously, therapeutic agents to ameliorate the core symptoms especially social deficits, are very limited. In this study, we investigated therapeutic potential of donepezil for ASD using valproic acid-induced autistic animal model (VPA animal model). We found that prenatal exposure of valproic acid (VPA) induced dysregulation of cholinergic neuronal development, most notably the up-regulation of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the prefrontal cortex of affected rat and mouse offspring. Similarly, differentiating cortical neural progenitor cell in culture treated with VPA showed increased expression of AChE in vitro. Chromatin precipitation experiments revealed that acetylation of histone H3 bound to AChE promoter region was increased by VPA. In addition, other histone deacetyalse inhibitors (HDACIs) such as trichostatin A and sodium butyrate also increased the expression of AChE in differentiating neural progenitor cells suggesting the essential role of HDACIs in the regulation of AChE expression. For behavioral analysis, we injected PBS or donepezil (0.3 mg/kg) intraperitoneally to control and VPA mice once daily from postnatal day 14 all throughout the experiment. Subchronic treatment of donepezil improved sociability and prevented repetitive behavior and hyperactivity of VPA-treated mice offspring. Taken together, these results provide evidence that dysregulation of ACh system represented by the up-regulation of AChE may serve as an effective pharmacological therapeutic target against autistic behaviors in VPA animal model of ASD, which should be subjected for further investigation to verify the clinical relevance. 相似文献

The present study was designed to synthesize and evaluate pyrrolo-isoxazole benzoic acid derivatives as potential acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors for the management of Alzheimer's disease. The synthesis of pyrrolo-isoxazole benzoic acid derivatives involved ring opening cyclization of p-aminobenzoic acid with maleic anhydride to yield maleanilic acid, which in turn afforded N-arylmaleimide via ring closed cyclization. Azomethine-N-oxides were obtained by condensation of N-arylhydroxylamine with differently substituted benzaldehydes followed by refluxing of N-arylmaleimide with differently substituted azomethine-N-oxides to pyrrolo-isoxazole benzoic acid derivatives as cis- and trans-stereoisomers. The synthesized compounds were evaluated in vitro for AChE inhibitory activity in rat brain homogenate with donepezil as standard AChE inhibitor. Thereafter, the most potent test compound was evaluated for in vitro butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activity and in vivo memory evaluation in scopolamine (0.4mg/kg)-induced amnesia in mice by employing Morris water maze test. All pyrrolo-isoxazole benzoic acid derivatives demonstrated potent AChE inhibitory activity. Most of compounds exhibited similar activity to donepezil and four of them (7h, 7i, 8i, and 8h, IC(50)=19.1±1.9-17.5±1.5nM) displayed higher inhibitory activity as compared to donepezil (21.5±3.2nM) with compound 8ia (IC(50)=17.5±1.5nM) being the most active one. The test compound 8ia also ameliorated scopolamine-induced amnesia in mice in terms of restoration of time spent in target quadrant (TSTQ) and escape latency time (ELT). It may be concluded that pyrrolo-isoxazole benzoic acid derivatives may be employed as potential AChE inhibitors. 相似文献

Quantification of serine enantiomers in rat brain microdialysate using Marfey's reagent and LC/MS/MS
Berna MJ Ackermann BL 《Journal of chromatography. B, Analytical technologies in the biomedical and life sciences》2007,846(1-2):359-363
The ability to selectively measure serine enantiomer concentrations in rat brain microdialysate is essential during drug discovery to study the interaction of d-serine with the N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) subtype of the glutamate receptor. NMDA receptor-stimulating agents, such as d-serine, have been shown to reduce the negative symptoms and cognitive dysfunction in individuals with schizophrenia when added to conventional or atypical antipsychotic drug regimens. In the work presented here, an LC/MS/MS assay was developed and validated to simultaneously measure d-serine and l-serine concentrations in rat brain microdialysate. Reverse phase chromatographic resolution of the enantiomers was obtained through derivatization with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl-5-l-alanine amide (Marfey's reagent). The assay was validated to determine concentrations over the range of 10-7500 ng/mL using electrospray ionization and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). Both intra- and inter-day precision and accuracy were less than 16.5% (RE) and 7% (CV) for both analytes, respectively, and assay throughput was increased significantly relative to existing methodologies. 相似文献

A fast, sensitive and selective ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed for the determination of nifedipine in human plasma. Nitrendipine was used as the internal standard. The sample preparation employed liquid-liquid extraction with a mixture of n-hexane-diethyl ether (1:3, v/v). Chromatographic separation was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC? BEH C(18) column. The mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile-10 mmol/L ammonium acetate (75:25, v/v) with a flow rate of 0.20 mL/min. The detection was performed on a triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode via electrospray ionization (ESI) source. A high throughput was achieved with a run time of 1.4 min per sample. The linear calibration curves were obtained in the concentration range of 0.104-52.0 ng/mL (r(2)≥ 0.99) with a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.104 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-day precision (relative standard deviation, RSD) values were below 15% and the accuracy (relative error, RE) was -4.0% to 6.2% at three quality control levels. The method was fully validated and successfully applied to a clinical pharmacokinetic study of nifedipine sustained-release tablet in healthy male volunteers. 相似文献

Acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase activity in the atria of the heart of adult albino rats 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In experiments on adult albino rats the authors used the substances BW 284 C51 (1.5-bis(allyldimethylammoniumphenyl)-pentane-3-one-dibromide) as a specific inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and ethopropazine (10-(2-diethylaminopropyl) phenothiazine hydrochloride) as a specific inhibitor of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) to determine the two enzyme activities in atrial homogenates and to investigate changes after AChE or BuChE inhibition of the negative chronotropic effect of acetylcholine (ACh) on atria incubated in vitro. AChE accounted for only 12% and BuChE for 88% of the total ability of atrial homogenates to hydrolyse acetylcholine. The concentration of exogenous ACh needed to reduce the spontaneous frequency of contractions of the isolated right atrium by 30, 60, or 90/min fell by 78%, 79% and 84% respectively after BW 284 C51 inhibition of AChE and by 95%, 94% and 94% after simultaneous inhibition of AChE and BuChE. The significance of AChE in control of the negative chronotropic effect of ACh is thus evidently significantly greater than would correspond to the percentual proportion of AChE in cholinesterase activities in the atria of the rat heart. In can be assumed that AChE is functionally associated with parasympathetic innervation of the heart and that it is probably present in a high concentration in the primary pacemaker region. 相似文献

An LC–MS/MS method was developed and validated to quantify endogenous cyclic guanosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cGMP) in human plasma. The LC–MS/MS and competitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) assays were compared. cGMP concentrations of 20 human plasma samples were measured by both methods. For the MS-based assay, plasma samples were subjected to a simple protein precipitation procedure by acetonitrile prior to analysis by electrospray ionization LC–MS/MS. De-protonated analytes generated in negative ionization mode were monitored through multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). A stable isotope-labeled internal standard, 13C10,15N5-cGMP, which was biosynthesized in-house, was used in the LC–MS/MS method. The competitive EIA was validated using a commercially available cGMP fluorescence assay kit. The intra-assay accuracy and precision for MS-based assay for cGMP were 6–10.1% CV and ?3.6% to 7.3% relative error (RE), respectively, while inter-assay precision and accuracy were 5.6–8.1% CV and ?2.1% to 6.3% RE, respectively. The intra-assay accuracy and precision for EIA were 17.9–27.1% CV and ?4.9% to 24.5% RE, respectively, while inter-assay precision and accuracy were 15.1–39.5% CV and ?30.8% to 4.37% RE, respectively. Near the lower limits of detection, there was little correlation between the cGMP concentration values in human plasma generated by these two methods (R2 = 0.197, P = 0.05). Overall, the MS-based assay offered better selectivity, recovery, precision and accuracy over a linear range of 0.5–20 ng/mL. The LC–MS/MS method provides an effective tool for the quantitation of cGMP to support clinical mechanistic studies of curative pharmaceuticals. 相似文献

We developed and validated a simple, rapid, and accurate HPLC-MS/MS method with simple protein precipitation for the determination of orphenadrine. Injection-to-injection running time was 3 min with a retention time of orphenadrine of 1.1 min. The linear assay range was 1-200 ng/mL (r2 > 0.99). The intra- and inter-assay imprecisions were CV 0.6-4.2% and CV 1.6-6.1%, respectively. The accuracy, extraction recovery, specificity and stability were satisfactory. Using the measured plasma concentrations of orphenadrine in 24 healthy subjects, pharmacokinetic profiles of orphenadrine were evaluated (AUC(0-72,) 1565+/-731 ng h/mL, Cmax 82.8+/-26.2 ng/mL, Tmax 3.0+/-0.9 h, elimination half-life 25.8+/-10.3 h). 相似文献

Disorders in choline metabolism are related to disease conditions. We developed a stable-isotope dilution ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the simultaneous quantification of acetylcholine (ACh), betaine, choline, and dimethylglycine (DMG). We used this method to measure concentrations of the analytes in plasma and urine in addition to other biological fluids after a protein precipitation by acetonitrile. The detection limits were between 0.35 nmol/L (for ACh in urine) and 0.34 μmol/L (for betaine in urine). ACh concentrations were not detectable in plasma. Intraassay and interassay coefficient of variation (CVs) were all <10.0% in biological fluids, except for DMG in cerebrospinal fluid (CV=12.44%). Mean recoveries in urine pool samples were between 99.2% and 103.9%. The urinary excretion of betaine, choline, and DMG was low, with approximately 50.0% higher excretion of choline in females compared to males. Median urinary excretion of ACh were 3.44 and 3.92 μmol/mol creatinine in males and females, respectively (p=0.689). Plasma betaine concentrations correlated significantly with urinary excretions of betaine (r=0.495, p=0.027) and choline (r=0.502, p=0.024) in females. Plasma choline concentrations correlated significantly with urinary excretion of ACh in males (r=0.419, p=0.041) and females (r=0.621, p=0.003). The new method for the simultaneous determination of ACh, betaine, choline, and DMG is sensitive, precise, and fast enough to be used in clinical investigations related to the methylation pathway. 相似文献

R-/S-2-(2-hydroxypropanamido)-5-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid (R-/S-HFBA) is a novel COX inhibitor with remarkable anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet aggregation activities, but no gastrointestinal toxicity. In our previous study, the different pharmacokinetic profiles of the two enantiomers in rats were observed after administration of R-HFBA and S-HFBA. Stereoselective protein binding of the two enantiomers may be a reason for the different pharmacokinetic behaviors. In this study, we developed and validated an UPLC-MS/MS method for determining stereoselective binding of HFBA enantiomers to rat, dog, and human plasma in vitro. Chromatographic separation was achieved by gradient elution with a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. MS/MS detection was operated in positive electrospray using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The method was proved to be linear over the concentration range of 0.005 to 10 μg/mL with a lower limit of quantification of 0.005 μg/mL. The developed method was successfully employed to the plasma protein binding study of HFBA enantiomers. Equilibrium dialysis method was applied to assess drug-plasma protein interactions. The results showed that the enantiomers were both extensively bound to three species plasma and protein binding of R-/S-HFBA was concentration dependent. R-HFBA and S-HFBA showed significant species difference among rat, dog, and human plasma and stereoselective plasma protein binding. 相似文献

The total ACh content and AChE activity were determined 1 hr after the i.p. injection of different doses of thiopental sodium (5, 10 and 20 mg/ml/100 g body wt) and barbitone sodium (20, 40 and 80 mg/ml/100 g body wt). The effect of different time intervals (1 min, 10 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 2.5 hr, 5 hr, 8 hr, 12 hr, 24 hr and 48 hr) on the total ACh content and AChE activity was investigated after i.p. injection of 10 mg thiopental sodium and 40 mg barbitone sodium/ml/100 g body wt. Both thiopental sodium and barbitone sodium increased the total ACh content in the brain tissue of Arvicanthis niloticus. Both drugs inhibited the brain AChE activity. It is thought that the increase in the total ACh content in the brain tissue of Arvicanthis niloticus may be due to a decrease in the release of ACh from the neuronal tissue and a decrease in AChE activity. 相似文献

An efficient method for synthesising NMDAR co-agonist Sunifiram (DM235), in addition to Sunifram-carbamate and anthranilamide hybrids, has been developed in high yields via protecting group-free stepwise unsymmetric diacylation of piperazine using N-acylbenzotiazole. Compounds 3f, 3d, and 3i exhibited promising nootropic activity by enhancing acetylecholine (ACh) release in A549 cell line. Moreover, the carbamate hybrid 3f was found to exhibit higher in vitro potency than donepezil with IC50 = 18 ± 0.2 nM, 29.9 ± 0.15 nM for 3f and donepezil, respectively. 3f was also found to effectively inhibit AChE activity in rat brain (AChE = 1.266 ng/mL) compared to tacrine (AChE = 1.137 ng/ml). An assessment of the ADMET properties revealed that compounds 3f, 3d, and 3i are drug-like and can penetrate blood–brain barrier. Findings presented here showcase highly potential cholinergic agents, with expected partial agonist activity towards glycine binding pocket of NMDAR which could lead to development and optimisation of novel nootropic drugs. 相似文献

Association between acetylcholinesterase and beta-amyloid peptide in Alzheimer's cerebrospinal fluid
The altered expression of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) has raised much interest of late. Despite an overall decrease in the AD brain, the activity of AChE increases around beta-amyloid plaques and indeed, the beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta) can influence AChE levels. Such evidence stimulated our interest in the possibility that the levels of AChE and amyloid might vary together in AD. We previously found that the different AChE forms present in both the brain and in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of AD patients varied in conjunction with abnormal glycosylation. Thus, the alterations in glycosylation are correlated with the accumulation of a minor subspecies of AChE monomers. We also recently analysed whether long-term exposure to the cholinesterase inhibitor (ChE-I) donepezil influences the AChE species found in AD CSF. The marked increase in CSF-AChE activity in AD patients following long-term treatment with donepezil was not paralleled by a rise in this subset of light variants. Hence, the correlation with the levels of CSF-Abeta is unique to these AChE species in patients receiving such treatment. The aim of this report is to review the links between AChE and beta-amyloid, and to discuss the significance of the responses of the distinct AChE species to ChE-I during the treatment of AD. 相似文献

An automated high-throughput liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for quantitative determination of donepezil in human plasma. 150 MicroL of plasma samples were placed in 2.2 mL 96-deepwell plates and both donepezil and loratadine (IS) were extracted from human plasma by liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), using hexane as the organic solvent. Robotic liquid handling workstations were employed for all liquid transfer and solution preparation steps and resulted in a short sample preparation time. After vortexing, centrifugation and freezing, the supernatant organic solvent was evaporated and reconstituted in a small volume of reconstitution solution. The method developed, includes a sample analysis performed by reversed phase LC-MS/MS, with positive ion electrospray ionization, using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). The chromatographic run time was set for 2.0 min with a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min in a C18 analytical column. The method was significantly sensitive, specific, accurate and precise for the determination of donepezil in human plasma and had the shortest run time. The curve was proven to be linear for the concentration range of 0.1-100 ng/mL. After validation, the method was applied to the rapid and reliable quantitative determination of donepezil in a bioequivalence study after per os administration of a 5mg donepezil tablet. 相似文献

Regional distribution of the histamine metabolite, tele-methylimidazoleacetic acid, in rat brain: effects of pargyline and probenecid 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Abstract: tele -Methylimidazoleacetic acid (t-MIAA), a major brain histamine metabolite, was measured in nine rat brain regions by a gas chromatography-mass spectrometric method that also measures the precursor amine, tele -methylhistamine (t-MH). The t-MIAA concentration of cerebellum, medulla-pons, midbrain, caudate nucleus, hypothalamus, frontal cortex, hippocampus, and thalamus varied 15-fold, hypothalamus showing the highest level (2.21 nmol/g) and cerebellum the lowest (0.15 nmol/ g). The concentrations of t-MIAA and t-MH were significantly correlated in all regions except midbrain, which had relatively more t-MIAA. Probenecid did not alter whole-brain t-MIAA levels. Treatment with pargyline, an inhibitor of monoamine oxidase, lowered the t-MIAA levels in all regions. 相似文献

A rapid, sensitive and selective method was developed for the quantitative determination of hederagenin in rat plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by ultra fast liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UFLC-MS/MS). It has been successfully applied in a pharmacokinetic study of hederagenin in the central nervous system (CNS). Sample pretreatment involved a simple protein precipitation with methanol and a one-step extraction with ethyl acetate. Separation was carried out in a Shim-pack XR-ODS II (75 mm × 2.0 mm, i.d., 2.1 μm) column with gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.35 mL/min. The mobile phase was 5mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile. Detection was performed in a triple-quadruple tandem mass spectrometer by multiple-reaction-monitoring mode via electrospray ionization. A linear calibration curve for hederagenin was obtained over a concentration range of 0.406 (lower limit of quantification, LLOQ) to 203 ng/mL (r2 > 0.99) for both plasma and CSF. The intra-day and inter-day precision (relative standard deviation, RSD) values were less than 15%. At all quality control (QC) levels, the accuracy (relative error, RE) was within -9.0% and 11.1% for plasma and CSF, respectively. The pharmacokinetics results indicated that hederagenin could pass through the blood-brain barrier. This UFLC-MS/MS method demonstrates higher sensitivity and sample throughput than previous methods. It was also successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of hederagenin following oral administration of Fructus akebiae extract in rats. 相似文献
