In this study, a triple quadrupole LC-MS/MS electrospray ionization method was developed and validated for quantitative determination of adenosine, guanosine, xanthine and uric acid in fifteen widely consumed Thai vegetables. The method was successively developed by using caffeine as internal standard. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) was 0.2 µg/g for adenosine and guanosine, and 1.0 µg/g for uric acid and xanthine. The method was fully validated according to USFDA guidelines and all performance characteristics were found acceptable. Subsequently, the developed and validated LC-MS/MS method was applied to determine the four interest substances in fifteen widely consumed vegetables in Thailand. The results showed that all vegetables included in the study could be classified as low adenosine, guanosine, xanthine and uric acid containing foods since the concentrations of these substances were less than 50 mg per 100 g. This finding was enormously valuable information for hyperuricemia and gouty patients.

3',5'-Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) and 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) are well reported second messenger molecules involved in cellular signal transduction, in physiological functions such as neurotransmission in animals and in the modulation of cell growth and differentiation. In plants, 3',5'-cyclic nucleotides have been implicated in the regulation of ion homeostasis, hormone and stress responses. The behavior of the 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide variants is also known in animal tissue but no quantitative information is available about 2',3'-cAMP and 2',3'-cGMP in plant material. A recently developed HILIC-SPE/LC-MS/MS method for the analysis of cyclic nucleotides in blood and animal tissue was therefore adapted to measure 2',3'-cAMP and 2',3'-cGMP concentrations in plant material. Cyclic nucleotide concentrations were measured in Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0) leaves before and after the application of wounding stress. A significant (â¼5-fold) up-regulation of 2',3'-cAMP and 2',3'-cGMP was measured in Arabidopsis leaves compared to the control samples. The results indicate a thus far unreported strong correlation between plant stress and both 2',3'-cAMP and 2',3'-cGMP levels in plant material, and may open new avenues towards understanding the role of cyclic nucleotides in plants.

OBJECTIVE: Hydrogen gas has been demonstrated to neutralize free radicals and reduce oxidative stress recently. Our objective was to determine the therapeutic effect of H2 inhalation and its antioxidative activity on early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage. DESIGN: Controlled in vivo laboratory study. SETTING: Animal research laboratory. SUBJECTS: One hundred thirty-seven adult male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 280-350 g. INTERVENTIONS: Subarachnoid hemorrhage was induced by endovascular perforation method in rats. Subarachnoid hemorrhage rats were treated with 2.9% hydrogen gas inhaled for 2 hrs after perforation. At 24 and 72 hrs, mortality, body weight, neurologic deficits, and brain water content were assessed. Blood-brain barrier permeability and apoptosis were also measured at 24 hrs. To investigate the antioxidative activity of hydrogen gas, the expression of malondialdehyde, nitrotyrosine, and 8-hydroxyguanosine, which are oxidative markers of lipid, protein, and DNA damage, respectively, were measured at 24 hrs. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Hydrogen gas significantly alleviated brain edema and blood-brain barrier disruption, reduced apoptosis, and improved neurologic function at 24 hrs but not 72 hrs after subarachnoid hemorrhage. These effects were associated with the amelioration of oxidative injury of lipid, protein, and DNA. CONCLUSIONS: Hydrogen gas could exert its neuroprotective effect against early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage by its antioxidative activity.

A simple, fast and inexpensive method based on dispersive solid phase extraction (DSPE) combined with LC-MS was developed for simultaneous determination of 7 nucleosides and nucleobases (i.e., adenine, hypoxanthine, uridine, adenosine, guanine, guanosine, and inosine) in Tuber fruiting-bodies and fermentation mycelia. The DSPE procedure was firstly introduced to remove the protein interference from sample solutions, and D3520 macroporous resin was chosen as the DSPE sorbent because of its high removal capability on protein interferences, but low adsorption rate on analytes. Besides, key parameters on DSPE procedure (i.e., macroporous resin type, macroporous resin amount, methanol concentration, and vortex time) were optimized, and the protein removal efficacy could achieve about 95% after the process optimization. Though the method validation test, the DSPE-LC-MS method was confirmed to be precise, accurate and sensitive, and the column blinding problem was solved successfully. By using this established method, the total amount of nucleosides and nucleobases in the fermentation mycelia was determined to range from 4881.5 to 12,592.9µgg⻹, which was about 2-25 times higher than the fruiting-bodies (from 498.1 to 2274.1µgg⻹). The formulation of nucleosides and nucleobases in the fermentation mycelia maintained relatively constant, while the formulation in Tuber fruiting-bodies varied significantly with their species. Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) showed the formulation similarity of nucleosides and nucleobases between Tuber fermentation mycelia and the fruiting-bodies of Tuber indicum and Tuber himalayense. From the viewpoint of nucleosides and nucleobases, this work confirms the potentiality of Tuber fermentation mycelia as the alternative resource for its fruiting-bodies.

The aim of this study was to determine the nucleoside and nucleotide content in ovine and caprine milks at the colostral, transitional, and mature stages of lactation. Samples from 18 dairy sheep and 18 dairy goats were collected at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 15 d postpartum. Separation and quantitation of the 5'-nucleotides (NT) and the nucleosides (NS) was performed by reverse phase HPLC. For each compound measured, considerable interindividual variation was recorded in both species of milk. The total NS content ranged from 57 to 132 micromol/L and from 54 to 119 micromol/L in ovine and caprine milk, respectively. The major NS identified in both species of milk was uridine, representing more than 60% of the total NS pool. The mean levels of inosine and guanosine were comparable between ewe and goat milk. Instead, the mean level of cytidine across the sampling period was much higher in ewe milk (11.9 micromol/L compared with 4.5 micromol/L in goat milk) and exhibited a peak value on the fourth day of lactation. The adenosine content was at least 3-fold higher in caprine milk compared with its ovine counterpart. The total NS and orotic acid contents did not differ significantly between the 2 species. However, in the case of total NT content, interspecies differences were significant, with NT levels ranging from 294 to 441 micromol/L in ovine milk and from 166 to 366 micromol/L in caprine milk. The NT content in colostrum (1-3 d) of both species was higher than in mature milk (15 d), and uridine monophosphate was the dominant NT in all samples.

Flavonoids in the water extract of Carthamus tinctorius L. exhibit potent biological activities such as anti-coagulant, vasodilation, anti-oxidant, neuroprotection and immunosuppressant. A high-performance liquid chromatographic method was established to evaluate the quality of Carthamus tinctorius through a simultaneous quantitation of eight flavonoids, hydroxysafflor yellow A (2), 6-hydroxykaempferol 3,6-di-O-beta-glucoside-7-O-beta-glucuronide (3), 6-hydroxykaempferol 3,6,7-tri-O-beta-glucoside (4), 6-hydroxykaempferol 3-O-beta-rutinoside-6-O-beta-glucoside (6), 6-hydroxykaempferol 3,6-di-O-beta-glucoside (7), 6-hydroxyapigenin 6-O-glucoside-7-O-glucuronide (8), anhydrosafflor yellow B (9), and kaempferol 3-O-beta-rutinoside (10), together with two other compounds named guanosine (1) and syringin (5). Among them, compound 8 was identified as a new compound. The compounds were separated on an Alltech Alltima-C(18) column with gradient elution of acetonitrile and 0.01% trifluoroacetic acid. The detection wavelength was 280 nm. All the compounds showed good linearity (r(2) >or= 0.9989). The recoveries, measured at three concentration levels, varied from 94.9% to 105.2%. This method was also validated with respect to precision, repeatability and accuracy, and was successfully applied to quantify the 10 components in 46 batches of C. tinctorius samples from different areas. Significant variations were found in the contents of these compounds in these samples. Compared with the reported analytical methods of C. tinctorius, this simple and reliable method provided a new basis for overall assessment on quality of C. tinctorius and should be considered as a suitable quality control method.

Sample preparation is the first and very important step, which can greatly influence the repeatability and accuracy of the analysis. To date, several sample preparation methods with different solvents have been used for quantitative determination of nucleosides in Cordyceps, but their data are greatly various. In this study, five nucleosides, including adenosine, guanosine, inosine, uridine and cordycepin, in Cordyceps were determined using three extraction methods i.e. organic solvent pressurized liquid extraction, boiling water extraction and ambient temperature water extraction and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-diode array detection (DAD). The similar results were obtained when organic solvent pressurized liquid extraction and boiling water extraction were applied. However, the amounts of nucleosides in natural C. sinensis and cultured C. militaris extracted with ambient temperature water were greatly increased except those of adenosine in natural C. sinensis and cordycepin in cultured C. militaris. In addition, the amount of investigated nucleosides in cultured C. sinensis had no obvious variation among the three extraction methods. The results suggest that sample preparation has significant effect on the quantification of nucleosides in Cordyceps.

METHOD: Capillary zone electrophoresis method was employed to quantitate the adenosine, uridine, guanosine and inosine in C. sinensis, with 0.25 mg x L(-1) boric acid-sodium hydroxide buffer, pH 9.5. The working voltage was 20 kV, the temperature was 25 degrees C, and the detection wavelength was 260 nm. RESULT: With the capillary zone electrophoresis method, the average recovery of the above 4 nucleosides was 98.9%, 95.1%, 97.8% and 98.8% respectively, with the RSD 0.4%, 1.7%, 1.3% and 5.0%. There was no adenosine in natural C. sinensis and no inosine in the cultured C. mycelia detected. CONCLUSION: This method can be used to determine the adenosine, uridine, guanosine and inosine in C. sinensis. The nucleosides in C. sinensis produced from Qinghai province and cultured C. mycelia are obviously different.

The contents of cytidine, adenosine, guanosine and uridine in Banlangen Injections were determined by capillary zone electrophoresis. Shorter fused silica capillary (32.5 cm x 50 microm i. d. with effective length of 23.5 cm) was used. The samples were analyzed with 60 mmol/L borate-10% (v/v) 2-propanol-20% (v/v) acetonitrile running buffer at 20 kV voltage (25 degrees C capillary temperature). Pressure injection of 1 kPa x 10 s was employed, and the detection wavelength was 254 nm. Factors of the electrophoresis condition were investigated, such as the kinds and concentration of the electrolyte, buffer pH value, the type and concentration of organic modifier, separation voltage and temperature. The samples were filtered through 0.45 microm membrane, then direct injection was employed. External calibration of peak area versus concentration was used in the determination. Linear calibrations of four nucleosides were obtained within 12.5 - 250 mg/L (r > 0.999 1). The limits of detection (mg/L) were 6.2 of cytidine, 4.6 of adenosine, 6.7 of guanosine, and 9.0 of uridin. The average recoveries of the four nucleosides were between 95.1% - 102.3% with RSDs of 0.3% - 4.9%. The method is simple, rapid, reproducible and accurate. It can be used for the routine analysis of the four nucleosides in Banlangen Injections.

Cordyceps sinensis is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine, and some of the active components are nucleosides. The analysis of nucleosides in Cordyceps material has been performed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with gradient elution or by spectrometry. Here, we have explored the possibility of using capillary electrophoresis to determine the content of three major nucleosides (adenosine, guanosine and uridine) in Cordyceps. Capillary electrophoresis needs no gradients, and it provides a better separation due to its higher efficiency. In order to optimize the resolution, the separation of adenosine, guanosine and uridine was determined in Cordyceps with respect to the variation of buffer concentration, pH, temperature, and voltage. By using the calibrated electrophoresis system, the separation was achieved for the three nucleosides in less than 10 min with a background electrolyte consisting of 0.2 M boric acid-sodium hydroxide buffer, pH 8.5. The nucleoside contents of various types of natural Cordyceps and cultured Cordyceps mycelia were determined and compared. There was a great variation of nucleoside content in different sources of Cordyceps; the cultured Cordyceps mycelia, however, contains a much higher concentration than the natural Cordyceps.
