Abstract
One of the primary objectives of river basin planning and management is to assess the behavior of the river towards man-made and natural changes. In recent times, the self-purifying capacity of the river is found to be substantially affected because of extensive use of water for agricultural and industrial purposes. Any variation in the flow regime of a river poses a severe impact on the aquatic ecosystem, which affects its self-purifying capacity. Diverting river water for industrial and agricultural uses through dams and barrages reduces the natural flow rate of the river. The present study develops a novel approach by coupling Watershed Modeling System (WMS ver. 10.1) with linear optimization to provide an alternate means of water supply for such users. To explain the effectiveness of the model, a case study on the Ganges river basin of India has been considered. The ecosystem of the Ganges provides such a magnificent biological fabric, that its self-purifying capacity exceeds that of any other river water across the globe. However, the industries found in the river's most polluted stretch consume around 1200 million liters of water every day. In addition, 80% of the river water diverts at Narora barrage for agricultural purposes. As a result, the flow of the river in dry seasons is as less as 300 m3/s. The study suggests the need to develop economically feasible and efficient storage reservoirs to store the rainwater, which can be used to supply industrial and agricultural needs. The WMS software is used to acquire the watershed basin, outlet location, simulated runoff volume, proposed reservoir site, and the hydrograph using the monitored rainfall data of 5 years (2010-2014). The simulated runoff volume is then used to develop an optimization model to determine the required capacity of each reservoir using LINGO software (ver. 16.0). Four different storage reservoirs are proposed in the selected industrial sites of Unnao district, Uttar Pradesh, India. These reservoirs can supply the needs of industries, and thus reducing their dependency on the river Ganges. The model developed herein acts as an effective tool for giving a possible solution to large-scale water supply problems in the river basins, and also guides the decision makers towards restoring the stream flow.

Abstract
RATIONALE Vilazodone is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) used for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). An extensive literature search found few reports on the in vivo and in vitro metabolism of vilazodone. Therefore, we report a comprehensive in vivo and in vitro metabolic identification and structural characterization of vilazodone using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC/Q-TOF/MS/MS) and in silico toxicity study of the metabolites. METHODS To identify in vivo metabolites of vilazodone, blood, urine and faeces samples were collected at different time intervals starting from 0 h to 48 h after oral administration of vilazodone to Sprague-Dawley rats. The in vitro metabolism study was conducted with human liver microsomes (HLM) and rat liver microsomes (RLM). The samples were prepared using an optimized sample preparation approach involving protein precipitation followed by solid-phase extraction. The metabolites have been identified and characterized by using LC/ESI-MS/MS. RESULTS A total of 12 metabolites (M1-M12) were identified in in vivo and in vitro matrices and characterized by LC/ESI-MS/MS. The majority of the metabolites were observed in urine, while a few metabolites were present in faeces and plasma. Two metabolites were observed in the in vitro study. A semi-quantitative study based on percentage counts shows that metabolites M11, M6 and M8 were observed in higher amounts in urine, faeces and plasma, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The structures of all the 12 metabolites were elucidated by using LC/ESI-MS/MS. The study suggests that vilazodone was metabolized via hydroxylation, dihydroxylation, glucuronidation, oxidative deamination, dealkylation, dehydrogenation and dioxidation. All the metabolites were screened for toxicity using an in silico tool.

Abstract
Zidvovudine (AZT) is a nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), a class of anti-retroviral drug. A stability-indicating assay method for AZT was developed in line with ICH guideline. Successful separation of AZT and its degradation products was achieved by gradient elution mode on reverse phase C18 column using 10 mM ammonium acetate: acetonitrile as the mobile phase at 0.8 mL/min flow rate, 25 µL injection volume, 30 °C column temperature and 285 nm detection wavelength. Two major acid degradation products were identified and characterized by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-ESI/MS/MS) and accurate mass measurements. The probable mechanisms for the formation of degradation products were identified based on a comparison of the fragmentation pattern of the [M + H] + ions of AZT and its degradation products. One of the degradation products, DP-1, was isolated by semi-preparative high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using Waters XBridge Prep C18 (250 mm×10 mm, 5 µm). Degradation products showed higher toxicity compared to the drug in some models assessed by TOPKAT software. The method validation was performed with respect to robustness, specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy as per ICH guideline Q2 (R1).

Abstract
Regulatory agencies from all over the world have set up stringent guidelines with regard to drug degradation products due to their toxic effects or carcinogenicity. Lansoprazole, a proton-pump inhibitor, was subjected to forced degradation studies as per ICH guidelines Q1A (R2). The drug was found to degrade under acidic, basic, neutral hydrolysis and oxidative stress conditions, whereas it was found to be stable under thermal and photolytic conditions. The chromatographic separation of the drug and its degradation products were achieved on a Hiber Purospher, C18 (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 μ) column using 10 mM ammonium acetate and acetonitrile as a mobile phase in a gradient elution mode at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The eight degradation products (DP1-8) were identified and characterized by UPLC/ESI/HRMS with in-source CID experiments combined with accurate mass measurements. DP-1, DP-2 and DP-3 were formed in acidic, DP-4 in basic, DP-5 in neutral and DP-1, DP-6, DP-7 and DP-8 were in oxidation stress condition Among eight degradation products, five were hitherto unknown degradation products. In addition, one of the major degradation products, DP-2, was isolated by using semi preparative HPLC and other two, DP-6 and DP-7 were synthesized. The cytotoxic effect of these degradation products (DP-2, DP-6 and DP-7) were tested on normal human cells such as HEK 293 (embryonic kidney cells) and RWPE-1(normal prostate epithelial cells) by MTT assay. From the results of cytotoxicity, it was found that lansoprazole as well as its degradation products (DP-2, DP-6 and DP-7) were nontoxic up to 50-μM concentrations, and the latter showed slightly higher cytotoxicity when compared with that of lansoprazole. DNA binding studies using spectroscopic techniques indicate that DP-2, DP-6 and DP-7 molecules interact with ctDNA and may bind to its surface. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
RATIONALE Saquinavir mesylate (SQM) is an antiviral drug used for the treatment of HIV infections. The identification and characterization of all degradation products are essential for achieving the quality in pharmaceutical product development and also for patient safety. METHODS The drug was subjected to hydrolytic (HCl, NaOH and water), oxidative (H2 O2 ), photolytic (UV and fluorescence light) and thermal (dry heat) forced degradation conditions as per ICH guidelines. The best chromatographic separation of the drug and all degradation products (DPs) was achieved on a CSH-Phenyl Hexyl column (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) with ammonium acetate (10 mM, pH 5.0) and methanol as mobile phase in gradient mode at a flow rate of 0.28 mL/min. RESULTS Nine DPs were obtained under various forced degradation conditions. All the DPs were characterized by using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC/ESI-QTOF MS/MS) and the degradation pathway of the drug was justified by mechanistic explanations. The main DPs were formed by amide hydrolysis, conversion into diastereomers, an N-oxide and dehydration as well as oxidation of the alcohol from the drug. The method was validated and can be used in a quality control (QC) laboratory to assure the quality of SQM in bulk and finished formulations. CONCLUSIONS A simple UHPLC/photodiode array (PDA) method was developed and successfully transferred to UHPLC/ESI-Q-TOF MS/MS for the identification and characterization of DPs. Very interestingly, diastereomeric DPs were obtained and successfully resolved by the chromatographic method. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
The present study reports the in vivo and in vitro identification and characterization of metabolites of fluvastatin, the 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitor, using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). In vitro studies were conducted by incubating the drug with human liver microsomes and rat liver microsomes. In vivo studies were carried out by administration of the drug in the form of suspension to the Sprague-Dawley rats followed by collection of urine, faeces and blood at different time points up to 24 h. Further, samples were prepared by optimized sample preparation method, which includes freeze liquid extraction, protein precipitation and solid phase extraction. The extracted and concentrated samples were analysed using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadruple time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry. A total of 15 metabolites were observed in urine, which includes hydroxyl, sulphated, desisopropyl, dehydrogenated, dehydroxylated and glucuronide metabolites. A few of the metabolites were also present in faeces and plasma samples. In in vitro studies, a few metabolites were observed that were also present in in vivo samples. All the metabolites were characterized using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadruple time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry in combination with accurate mass measurement. Finally, in silico toxicity studies indicated that some of the metabolites show or possess carcinogenicity and skin sensitization. Several metabolites that were identified in rats are proposed to have toxicological significance on the basis of in silico evaluation. However, these metabolites are of no human relevance.

Abstract
Epidemiologic studies show an inverse correlation between garlic consumption and progression of cardiovascular disease. However, the molecular basis for the beneficial effect of garlic on the heart is not known. Therefore, the objective of the present study was to (1) investigate the effect of raw garlic on isoproterenol (Iso) induced cardiac hypertrophy (2) find the active metabolites of garlic responsible for the beneficial effect. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced in rats by subcutaneous single injection of Iso 5 mg kg-1 day-1 for 15 days and the effect of garlic (250 mg/kg/day orally) was evaluated. Garlic metabolites in in vivo were identified by LC/MS study. The effect of garlic and its metabolites were evaluated against hypertrophy in H9C2 cells. Garlic normalized cardiac oxidative stress after Iso administration. Cardiac pathology and mitochondrial enzyme activities were improved in hypertrophy heart after garlic administration. Decreased Na+/K+-ATPase protein level that observed in hypertrophy heart was increased after garlic administration. We identified three garlic metabolites in rat serum. To confirm the role of garlic metabolites on cardiac hypertrophy, Na+/K+-ATPase expression and intracellular calcium levels were measured after treating H9C2 cells with raw garlic and two of its active metabolites, allyl methyl sulfide and allyl methyl sulfoxide. Raw garlic and both metabolites increased Na+/K+-ATPase protein level and decreased intracellular calcium levels and cell size in Iso treated H9C2 cells. This antihypertrophic effect of garlic and its sulfur metabolites were lost in H9C2 cells in presence of Na+/K+-ATPase inhibitor. In conclusion, garlic and its active metabolites increased Na+/K+-ATPase in rat heart, and attenuated cardiac hypertrophy and associated remodeling. Our data suggest that identified new garlic metabolites may be useful for therapeutic intervention against cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
Silodosin (SLD) is a novel α1-adrenoceptor antagonist which has shown promising clinical efficacy and safety in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). However, lack of information about metabolism of SLD prompted us to investigate metabolic fate of SLD in rats. To identify in vivo metabolites of SLD, urine, feces and plasma were collected from Sprague-Dawley rats after its oral administration. The samples were prepared using an optimized sample preparation approach involving protein precipitation followed by solid-phase extraction and then subjected to LC/HR-MS/MS analysis. A total of 13 phase I and six phase II metabolites of SLD have been identified in rat urine which includes hydroxylated, N-dealkylated, dehydrogenated, oxidative, glucosylated, glucuronide and N-sulphated metabolites, which are also observed in feces. In plasma, only dehydrogenated, N-dealkylated and unchanged SLD are observed. The structure elucidation of metabolites was done by fragmentation in MS/MS in combination with HRMS data. The potential toxicity profile of SLD and its metabolites were predicted using TOPKAT software and most of the metabolites were proposed to show a certain degree of skin sensitization and occular irritancy.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the contribution of metabolites to drug-drug interaction and drug-herb interaction using the inhibition of CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 by metoprolol (MET) and its metabolites. The peak concentrations of unbound plasma concentration of MET, α-hydroxy metoprolol (HM), O-desmethyl metoprolol (ODM) and N-desisopropyl metoprolol (DIM) were 90.37 ± 2.69, 33.32 ± 1.92, 16.93 ± 1.70 and 7.96 ± 0.94 ng/mL, respectively. The metabolites identified, HM and ODM, had a ratio of metabolic area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) to parent AUC of ≥0.25 when either total or unbound concentration of metabolite was considered. In vitro CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 inhibition by MET, HM and ODM study revealed that MET, HM and ODM were not inhibitors of CYP3A4-catalyzed midazolam metabolism and CYP2D6-catalyzed dextromethorphan metabolism. However, DIM only met the criteria of >10% of the total drug related material and <25% of the parent using unbound concentrations. If CYP inhibition testing is solely based on metabolite exposure, DIM metabolite would probably not be considered. However, the present study has demonstrated that DIM contributes significantly to in vitro drug-drug interaction. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
CYP1A1 is a potential target for anticancer drug development due to its overexpression in certain cancer cells and role in cancer progression. To identify new leads for CYP1A1 mediated anticancer action, we attempted ligand based pharmacophore mapping, virtual screening of databases, molecular docking, MetaSite based filtering, and molecular dynamics simulations. Initial computational and in vitro screening identified 11 compounds from which we identified two lead compounds, ZINC33468944 and ZINC32101539, showed potential antitumor activity on MDA-MB-435 cell lines (GI50 < 0.1 μM) and CYP1A1 inhibition of 0.13 and 0.3 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the lead compounds were evaluated for CYP1A1 mediated metabolism, showing N-hydroxylated metabolites, which have potential of DNA adduct formation and cause cancerous cell death. Analysis of molecular dynamics simulations provided important guidelines for the further modification of the lead compounds. Hence, we claim the lead molecules for further development in anticancer drug discovery.

Abstract
A new class of Boc-N-protected hybrid peptides derived from L- Ala and ε6-Caa (L-Ala = L-Alanine, Caa = C-linked carboamino acid derived from D-xylose) have been studied by positive ion electrospray ionization (ESI) ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). MSn spectra of protonated and alkali-cationized hybrid peptides produce characteristic fragmentation involving the peptide backbone, the tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) group, and the side chain. The dipeptide positional isomers are differentiated by the collision-induced dissociation (CID) of the protonated and alkali-cationized peptides. The CID of [M + H]+ ion of Boc-NH-L-Ala-ε-Caa- OCH3 (1) shows a prominent [M + H - C4H8]+ ion, which is totally absent for its positional isomer Boc-NH-ε-Caa-L-Ala-OCH3 (6), which instead shows significant loss of t-butanol. The formation of the [M + Cat - C4H8]+ ion is totally absent and [M + Cat - Boc + H]+ is prominent in the CID of the [M + Cat]+ ion of Boc-NH-L-Ala-ε-Caa- OCH3 (1), whereas the former is highly abundant and the latter is of low abundance for its positional isomer Boc-NH-ε-Caa-L-Ala-OCH3 (6). It is observed that 'b' ions are abundant when oxazolone structures are formed through a five-membered cyclic transition state in tetra-, penta-, and hexapeptides and the cyclization process for larger 'b' ions led to an insignificant abundance. However, the significant 'b' ion is formed in ε,α-dipeptide, which may have a seven-membered substituted 2-oxoazepanium ion structure. The MSn spectra of [M + Cat - Boc + H]+ ions of these peptides are found to be significantly different to those of [M + H - Boc + H]+ ions. The CID spectra of [M + Cat - Boc + H]+ ions of peptide acids containing L-Ala at the C-terminus show an abundant N-terminal rearrangement ion, [bn + 17 + Cat]+, which is absent for the peptide acids containing ε-Caa at the C-terminus. Thus, the results of these hybrid peptides provide sequencing information, the structure of the cyclic intermediate involved in the formation of the rearrangement ion, and distinguish a pair of dipeptide positional isomers.

Abstract
Tinoridine is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug and also has potent radical scavenger and antiperoxidative activity. However, metabolism of tinoridine has not been thoroughly investigated. To identify in vivo metabolites, the drug was administered to Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 5) at a dose of 20 mg kg(-1), and blood, urine and feces were collected at different time points up to 24 h. In vitro metabolism was delved by incubating the drug with rat liver microsomes and human liver microsomes. The metabolites were enriched by optimized sample preparation involving protein precipitation using acetonitrile, followed by solid-phase extraction. Data processes were carried out using multiple mass defects filters to eliminate false-positive ions. A total of 11 metabolites have been identified in urine samples including hydroxyl, dealkylated, acetylated and glucuronide metabolites; among them, some were also observed in plasma and feces samples. Only two major metabolites were formed using liver microsomal incubations. These metabolites were also observed in vivo. All the 11 metabolites, which are hitherto unknown and novel, were characterized by using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry in combination with accurate mass measurements. Finally, in silico toxicological screening of all metabolites was evaluated, and two metabolites were proposed to show a certain degree of lung or liver toxicity.

Abstract
The aim of the present study is to explore pharmacokinetic and protein binding characteristics of a novel dipeptidylpeptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, teneligliptin in rats using an ultra high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QTOF-MS). It is required for demonstrating the high protein binding nature of teneligliptin which can be extended for drug repositioning to brain disorders. Sample preparation was accomplished through a protein precipitation procedure using acetonitrile. Separation of teneligliptin and sitagliptin (IS) from endogenous components with high selectivity and sensitivity (0.5ng/mL) was achieved within 4min using Poroshell 120 EC-C18 column (100×3.0mm, 2.7μ). A gradient mobile phase consisting of 10mM ammonium formate and acetonitrile was applied at a flow rate of 0.45mL/min. Detection of target ions [M+H](+) at m/z 427.2274 for teneligliptin and m/z 408.1258 for IS was performed in selective ion mode using positive ion electrospray ionization high resolution accurate mass spectrometry. The linearity of the method was found to be in the range of 0.5-1000ng/mL. The matrix effect was 88.7-94.5% for teneligliptin. Plasma samples were found to stable under different storage conditions. It was successfully applied to pharmacokinetic and plasma protein binding study of drug in rats. Results showed linear dose proportionality of pharmacokinetics at 0.1 and 1mg/kg and relatively high protein binding of teneligliptin (85.46 ± 0.24 %) compared with other DPP-4 inhibitors.

Abstract
Pazopanib (PZ), an anti-cancer drug, was subjected to forced degradation under hydrolytic (acid, base and neutral), oxidative, photolytic and thermal stress conditions as per International Conference on Harmonization guidelines. A selective stability indicating validated method was developed using a Waters Acquity UPLC HSS T3 (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 µm) column in gradient mode with ammonium acetate buffer (10 mM, pH 5.0) and acetonitrile. PZ was found to degrade only in photolytic conditions to produce six transformation products (TPs). All the TPs were identified and characterized by liquid chromatography/atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-quadrupole-time of flight mass spectrometry experiments in combination with accurate mass measurements. Plausible mechanisms have been proposed for the formation of TPs. In silico toxicity was predicted using TOPKAT and DEREK softwares for all the TPs. The TP, N4-(2,3-dimethyl-2H-indazol-6-yl)-N4-methylpyrimidine-2,4-diamine, was found to be genotoxic, whereas all other TPs with sulfonamide moiety were hepatotoxic. The data reported here are expected to be of significance as this study foresees the formation of one potential genotoxic and five hepatotoxic degradation/transformation products.

Abstract
Methylation is an essential metabolic process for a number of critical reactions in the body. Methyl groups are involved in the healthy function of the body life processes, by conducting methylation process involving specific enzymes. In these processes, various amino acids are methylated, and the occurrence of methylated amino acids in nature is diverse. Nowadays, mass-spectrometric-based identification of small molecules as biomarkers for diseases is a growing research. Although all dimethyl amino acids are metabolically important molecules, mass spectral data are available only for a few of them in the literature. In this study, we report synthesis and characterization of all dimethyl amino acids, by electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) experiments on protonated molecules. The MS/MS spectra of all the studied dimethyl amino acids showed preliminary loss of H2O + CO to form corresponding immonium ions. The other product ions in the spectra are highly characteristic of the methyl groups on the nitrogen and side chain of the amino acids. The amino acids, which are isomeric and isobaric with the studied dimethyl amino acids, gave distinctive MS/MS spectra. The study also included MS/MS analysis of immonium ions of dimethyl amino acids that provide information on side chain structure, and it is further tested to determine the N-terminal amino acid of the peptides.
