Study on Metabolic Transformation of Total Glycosides of Cistanche deserticola in Artificial Gastric and Intestinal Juice / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE：To study the metabolic transformation of total glycosides of Cistanche deserticola in artificial gastric and intestinal juice，and to speculate its metabolic transformation pathway in vivo. METHODS：UPLC/Q-TOF-MS was adopted. The determination was performed on ACQUITY UPLC BEH column with mobile phase consisted of 0.2％ formic acid water-acetonitrile（gradient elution）at the flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 330 nm，and column temperature was 25 ℃. The ion source was electrospray ion source，and mass to charge ratio（m/z）was 50→1 000. In the positive and negative ion mode，the metabolic components of the total glycosides of C. deserticola in artificial gastric and intestinal juice were identified analysis，and combined with the literature，the metabolic pathway of total glycosides of C. deserticola in artificial gastric and intestinal juice was speculated. RESULTS：After the total glycosides of C. deserticola were metabolized by artificial gastric juice，and a total of 69 components were estimated，including 14 prototype components （such as Mustard aldehyde glucoside，daucosstorol） and 55 metabolic components （such as Methyl-O-Kankanoside J，Methyl-O-Kankanoside E），it is speculated that its metabolic pathways were methylation，demethylation，hydroxylation，methoxylation，acetylation，sulfation，and glucuronidation. After the total glycosides of C. deserticola were metabolized by artificial intestinal juice，a total of 90 components were estimated，including 4 prototype components（such as Kankanoside M，Kankanoside L）and 86 metabolic components（such as Methyl-O-Kankanoside， Methyl-O-Kankanoside E）. It was speculated that its metabolic pathways were methylation， demethylation，hydroxylation，dehydroxylation，methoxylation，acetylation，sulfation and glucuronidation. CONCLUSIONS：This study preliminarily speculates that the total glycosides of C. deserticola may be metabolized by methylation，demethylation， hydroxylation and other metabolic pathway in artificial gastrointestinal juice，which may provide reference for the in vivo metabolic transformation of total glycosides of C. deserticola.
