Abstract
In recent years, ultra-efficient liquid chromatography (UPLC) has gained particular popularity due to the possibility of faster separation of small molecules. This technique, used to separate the ingredients present in multi-component mixtures, has found application in many fields, such as chemistry, pharmacy, food, and biochemistry. It is an important tool in both research and production. UPLC created new possibilities for analytical separation without reducing the quality of the obtained results. This technique is therefore a milestone in liquid chromatography. Thanks to the increased resolution, new analytical procedures, in many cases, based on existing methods, are being developed, eliminating the need for re-analysis. Researchers are trying to modify and transfer the analytical conditions from the commonly used HPLC method to UPLC. This topic may be of strategic importance in the analysis of medicinal substances. The information contained in this manuscript indicates the importance of the UPLC technique in drug analysis. The information gathered highlights the importance of selecting the appropriate drug control tools. We focused on drugs commonly used in medicine that belong to various pharmacological groups. Rational prescribing based on clinical pharmacology is essential if the right drug is to be administered to the right patient at the right time. The presented data is to assist the analyst in the field of broadly understood quality control, which is very important, especially for human health and treatment. This manuscript shows that the UPLC technique is now an increasingly used tool for assessing the quality of drugs and determining the identity and content of active substances. It also allows the monitoring of active substances and finished products during their processing and storage.

Risk assessment and molecular mechanism study of drug-drug interactions between rivaroxaban and tyrosine kinase inhibitors mediated by CYP2J2/3A4 and BCRP/P-gp. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:914842. [PMID: 36071847 PMCID: PMC9441481 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.914842] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Cancer patients generally has a high risk of thrombotic diseases. However, anticoagulant therapy always aggravates bleeding risks. Rivaroxaban is one of the most widely used direct oral anticoagulants, which is used as anticoagulant treatment or prophylaxis in clinical practice. The present study aimed to systemically estimate the combination safety of rivaroxaban with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) based on human cytochrome P450 (CYPs) and efflux transporters and to explore the drug–drug interaction (DDI) mechanisms in vivo and in vitro. In vivo pharmacokinetic experiments and in vitro enzyme incubation assays and bidirectional transport studies were conducted. Imatinib significantly increased the rivaroxaban Cmax value by 90.43% (p < 0.05) and the area under the curve value by 119.96% (p < 0.01) by inhibiting CYP2J2- and CYP3A4-mediated metabolism and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)- and P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated efflux transportation in the absorption phase. In contrast, the combination of sunitinib with rivaroxaban reduced the exposure in vivo by 62.32% (p < 0.05) and the Cmax value by 72.56% (p < 0.05). In addition, gefitinib potently inhibited CYP2J2- and CYP3A4-mediated rivaroxaban metabolism with Ki values of 2.99 μΜ and 4.91 μΜ, respectively; however, it almost did not affect the pharmacokinetics of rivaroxaban in vivo. Taken together, clinically significant DDIs were observed in the combinations of rivaroxaban with imatinib and sunitinib. Imatinib increased the bleeding risks of rivaroxaban, while sunitinib had a risk of reducing therapy efficiency. Therefore, more attention should be paid to aviod harmful DDIs in the combinations of rivaroxaban with TKIs.

Abstract
Background:
Cuscutae Semen (CS) is reported to show a hepatoprotective effect. Chlorogenic
acid, hyperoside and astragalin are three major biologically active components from CS.
Objective:
A sensitive method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass
spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed and validated to quantify the three components in rat
plasma and was successfully used to study pharmacokinetics in liver injury rats.
Methods:
Plasma samples were prepared with protein precipitation by acetonitrile. Chromatographic separation
was achieved on ACQUITY-XBridge BEH C18 column with gradient elution using the mobile phase
containing 0.05% formic acid in water (A) and acetonitrile (B). The three components were quantified using
Electrospray Ionization (ESI) source in the negative multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) mode.
Results:
Calibration curves of each analyte showed good linearity with correlation coefficients over
0.99. Accuracies (RE%) and precisions (RSD%) were within 15%. The method was stable. Recovery
of the target compounds in plasma samples ranged from 87.00% to 102.29%. No matrix effect was found
to influence the quantitative method.
Conclusion:
The UPLC-MS/MS method met the acceptance criteria and was successfully applied to
the simultaneous determination of chlorogenic acid, hyperoside and astragalin in rat plasma for the first
time. It is suitable for pharmacokinetic application in liver injury rats. It provides the foundation for
further development and utilization of the hepatoprotective effect of cuscutae semen.

Abstract
Acteoside, angoroside C, harpagoside, and cinnamic acid, which are the main bioactive ingredients of Scrophularia ningpoensis Hemsl., have wide clinical use with various biological effects. A new and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was established with taxifolin as the internal standard (IS) in this study and was successfully used to study the pharmacokinetic profiles of four active components from S. ningpoensis Hemsl. in rats after sublingual intravenous administration. After protein precipitation with acetonitrile, the mobile phase (consisting of acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid) was used to separate the analytes on an Acquity UPLC BEH C18 chromatography column (2.1 × 50 mm, 1.7 μm) under gradient elution. The precursor-to-product ion transitions of 623.4 → 161.3 m/z for acteoside, 783.5 → 175.0 m/z for angoroside C, 493.3 → 345.2 m/z for harpagoside and 147.2 → 103.4 m/z for cinnamic acid were monitored by mass spectrometry with negative electrospray ionization in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The concentration range of 10–1,000 ng/ml could be detected by this method with a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 10 ng/ml for each analyte. The intra- and inter-day precision (RSD%) of the method ranged from 2.6 to 9.9% and 2.7–11.5%, respectively. Meanwhile, the accuracy (RE%) was −9.6–10.7% in this developed method. The mean recoveries of four active components from S. ningpoensis Hemsl. were more than 76.7% with negligible matrix effects. The four active components from S. ningpoensis Hemsl. were stable under multiple storage and process conditions. A new, sensitive and simple analytical method had been established and was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic profiles of four active components from S. ningpoensis Hemsl. in rats after sublingual intravenous administration.

Novel Pheretima guillelmi-derived antithrombotic protein DPf3: Identification, characterization, in vitro evaluation and antithrombotic mechanisms investigation. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 154:545-556. [PMID: 32173431 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.03.097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2020] [Revised: 03/03/2020] [Accepted: 03/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
In this study, the antithrombotic protein, named DPf3, was purified from Pheretima guillelmi by ion-exchange chromatography. The protein pattern of DPf3 was mainly at 26-34 kDa; its two main proteins, DPf3 ID NO.1 and NO.2, were detected to be 36,121.745 Da and 24,485.004 Da consisting of 329 and 241 amino acids, respectively; the full covered protein sequences were consistent with Ac44553_g1_i1_1 and Dc43026_g1_i1_2 in our previous constructed P. guillelmi local database. The secondary structure of DPf3 is the mixture of α-helix (0.19), β-sheet (0.30) and random coil (0.51). DPf3 was predicted to possess a direct effect on fibrin, fibrinogen and plasminogen by protein-protein docking analysis, which was further confirmed by in vitro and ex vivo study. DPf3 was determined to possess antithrombotic ability by showing outstanding direct-hydrolysis ability on fibrin, fibrinogen and blood clot, and slight plasminogen activation activity. DPf3 could significantly prolong APTT and decrease fibrinogen content, indicating that DPf3 exerted antithrombotic activity via the intrinsic and/or common pathway, and the third coagulation phase. By this approach, the functional protein DPf3 was fully revealed and found to confer excellent anticoagulant and thrombolytic activity, and could be developed into a promising antithrombotic agent.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is an independent risk factor of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and T2D patients with AF-associated stroke seem to have worse clinical outcome and higher risk of unfavorable clinical course compared to individuals without this metabolic disorder. Long-term anticoagulation is indicated in majority of T2D patients with AF to prevent adverse AF-associated embolic events. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), direct oral thrombin inhibitor dabigatran, and direct oral factor Xa inhibitors, rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban, have emerged as a preferred choice for long-term prevention of stroke in AF patients offering potent and predictable anticoagulation and a favorable pharmacology with low risk of interactions. This article reviews the current data regarding the use of DOACs in individuals with T2D and AF.
