An UPLC-MSMS Method for Simultaneous Quantification of the Components of Shenyanyihao Oral Solution in Rat Plasma

الملخص EN

Objectives.

To study the quantification of the components in rat plasma after oral administration of Shenyanyihao oral solution.

Methods.

Shenyanyihao oral solution has been traditionally used for the treatments of chronic nephritis in clinics.

Stachydrine, Danshensu, chlorogenic acid, protocatechuic acid, plantamajoside, aesculetin, isoquercitrin, ferulic acid, baicalin, and baicalein are regarded as the main compounds in Shenyanyihao oral solution.

A sensitive, efficient, and precise UPLC-MS/MS method was established and validated for the quantification of the components in rat plasma after oral administration of Shenyanyihao oral solution.

Results.

The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the components were acquired based on the analysis of the plasma sample by a noncompartmental method using the WinNonlin7.0 pharmacokinetic program.

Danshensu, protocatechuic acid, isoquercitrin, and ferulic acid from Shenyanyihao oral solution were quickly absorbed, and their peak concentration occurred at less than 0.5 h.

The pharmacokinetic parameter of the average t1/2 from Danshensu was 3.91 h in rats, and it was the most rapid distribution and elimination among the components.

In addition, the Cmax of stachydrine and baicalin were revealed as the higher plasma concentrations in rats.

Conclusions.

This pharmacokinetic study seems to be useful for a further clinical study of Shenyanyihao oral solution in the treatments of chronic nephritis.
