RESUMO
Objective To observe the metabolomic changes of amniotic fluid in control group and administration group,and to explore the toxicity of aqueous extract of rhubarb on reproduction and embryonic development of pregnant rats.Methods Pregnant rats in teratogenic sensitive period were given rhubarb aqueous extract by gavage for 10 days.The toxicity of rhubarb to maternal rats and the abnormal conditions of dead fetus and absorbed fetus were observed.The amniotic fluid samples were detected by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS),the amniotic fluid metabolic profiles were compared by principal component analysis(PCA)and partial least squares(OPLS-DA),and the differential lipids were analyzed by metaboanalyst 5.0.Results Rhubarb administration in the teratogenic sensitive period can significantly reduce the number of live fetuses,and lead to adverse phenomena such as absorption of fetuses and premature death of fetuses.The preliminary results of lipomics showed that rhubarb could cause the metabolic disorder of amniotic fluid in pregnant rats,and there were metabolic abnormalities in lipids in amniotic fluid such as PI,PC and LPC.Conclusion Under the equivalent dose of the maximum dose recommended by the clinic,the aqueous extract of rhubarb has certain reproductive and embryonic toxicity to rats;Rhubarb may affect the normal development of rat embryos by causing the disorder of lipid metabolism in amniotic fluid.
RESUMO
@#Gut microbiota-mediated deglycosylationplays an important role in the metabolism of ginsenoside Rb1. Thus, a lincomycin-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis rat model was selected to explored the pharmacokinetics and deglycosylation metabolism of ginsenoside Rb1. An UPLC-MS/MS analytical method was developed to detect ginsenoside Rb1 and its deglycosylated metabolite, Rd in rat plasma. The triple quadruple mass spectrometer was set in negative electrospray ionization mode by multiple reaction monitoring. The method was validated to meet the requirements of biological applications, by evaluating specificity, linearity, lower limits of quantification(LLOQ), precision, accuracy, matrix effect, recovery and stability. Gut microbiota dysbiosis rats were induced by oral administration of lincomycin(5 000 mg/kg)for 7 continuous days. The in vitro and in vivo results reveal that the reduced β-D-glucosidase activity significantly decreases the Rd formation rate in lincomycin-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis rats, leading to the pharmacokinetic alteration of ginsenoside Rb1 and Rd in gut microbiota dysbiosis rats.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To research the influence of glycyrrhiza extract on the pharmacokinetics characteristic parameters of daphnetin, which was aimed to explore the rationality of concert application of drugs.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The rats received intragastric administration of daphnetin and glycyrrhiza extract containing the same daphnetin respectively. The blood concentration of daphnetin was assayed by LC-MS. The data was processed by program DAS2.1.1.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Glycyrrhiza extract can reduce the t(1/2), tmax and Ke of daphnetin, while increased the Ka and AUC(0-infinity).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Glycyrrhiza extract promoted the oral absorption of daphnetin, slowed down the elimination and increased the biological availability.</p>

Natural coumarins have strong pharmacological activities. In this paper, the absorption and metabolism of natural coumarins were introduced by analyzing and summarizing the related literature in recent years. The research of absorption and metabolism will be propitious to further understand their pharmacological mechanism and provide basis for developing new drugs of coumarins.

In this study, daphnetin and its major metabolites in the intestinal wall of rats were identified by liquid chromatography and quatrupole-time of flight mass spectrometry. Perfusion fluid of duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon were collected separately for 2 hours from the rat intestine following perfusion with daphnetin. The metabolites of daphnetin in the perfusion fluid of different intestine segments were analyzed by the liquid chromatography and quatrupole-time of flight mass spectrometry. It is shown that the parent drug daphnetin and four metabolites were found in the perfusion fluid of duodenum, jejunum and ileum. However, no metabolites were found in the colon. Among the four metabolites, two daphnetin sulfates (m/z 257) were first discovered as the phase II metabolites of daphnetin in rats, which revealed a new way of daphnetin metabolism in rats.
RESUMO
Fingerprinting techniques play a increasingly important role in the quality control standards of traditional Chinese medicines (TCM), research and establish the fingerprint about spectral-efficiency could improve the quality control of TCM. The necessity of the fingerprint pharmacodynamics research and the analysis and evaluation of the research methods in the existing literature at home and abroad were reviewed in this article, Combined with the author's laboratory research, we proposed the research methods of fingerprint pharmacodynamics of TCM and provided the basis for effectively promoting the the establishment and development of fingerprint pharmacodynamics of Chinese medicine compound preparations.

Objective To determine pH value, the solubility in different solvents and the oil-water partition coefficients of cumarin. Method UV spectrophotometry was used to determine the content of cumarin. Shake-flask method was developed to determine the oil-water partition coefficients of cumarin. Result The higher solubility values of cumarin were 2 044,2015 and 1969 ?g/mL in acetone , methanol and ethanol, it was almost indiscerptible in water, the limit solubility was 1096.9 ?g/mL, which become stable while the whisk time reached to 8 hours. The oil/water detached coefficient was 11.210, which was higher in acid solvent. Conclusion The method is simple, rapid and reliable.
