LC-MS/MS analysis of didehydrostemofoline from Stemona collinsiae roots extracts in rats plasma and pharmacokinetics profile after oral administration. Fitoterapia 2024; 176:106041. [PMID: 38823598 DOI: 10.1016/j.fitote.2024.106041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
Stemona collinsiae Craib., Stemonaceae, has been traditionally used as medicinal plants for insecticides, treatment of parasitic worms and various diseases in Southeast Asian countries. Its ethanolic root extract has been postulated for anthelminthic activities which has a potential for development for human gnathostomiasis drug. To investigate the pharmacokinetic profile, liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantification of didehydrostemofoline in rats' plasma was developed and validated. The chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column using 1 mM ammonium acetate in water and methanol (50:50, v/v). Tetrahydropalmatine was used as an internal standard. The multiple reaction monitoring mode was used for quantitative analysis. The validated method showed good sensitivity, linearity, precision, and accuracy. The results of stability showed that didehydrostemofoline was stable in the extracted samples in auto-sampler for 24 h and in the plasma samples under room temperature for 24 h, -20 °C for 1 month, and after three freeze-thaw processes. The developed method was applied to the pharmacokinetic study of didehydrostemofoline after oral administration of S. collinsiae root extract. Didehydrostemofoline was rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The time to peak drug concentration was 1.75 ± 0.62 h with maximum drug concentration of 1152.58 ± 271.18 ng/mL. Didehydrostemofoline was rapidly eliminated from the body with terminal half-life of 1.86 ± 0.50 h. Calculated drug clearance of didehydrostemofoline was 96.82 ± 23.51 L/h and volume of distribution was 260.40 ± 96.81 L. The present study provided useful data for understanding drug disposition in the body with dynamic time-course which could be beneficial for further clinical trials.

[PMID: 38145860 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
HEADINGS ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Xingbei Zhike granule (XBZK), a widely prescribed Chinese patent medicine, is known for its efficacy in clearing lung qi, relieving cough and reducing phlegm, as well as fever, dry and bitter taste, and irritability. Despite its clinical popularity, comprehensive investigations into its chemical composition, in vivo metabolism, and pharmacokinetic characteristics are limited. AIM OF THE STUDY This study investigates the chemical composition, in vivo metabolism, and in vivo dynamics of XBZK to clarify its material basis and pharmacokinetic characteristics. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with Orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Orbitrap-MS) was used to determine the chemical composition and in vivo metabolic profile of XBZK. Additionally, UPLC with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UPLC-TQ-MS/MS) was performed to quantify its main components and evaluate its in vivo dynamics in rat plasma. RESULTS In total, 57 components were identified in XBZK. Furthermore, 40 prototype components and 31 metabolites were detected in various biological matrices of rats, including plasma, tissues, bile, feces, and urine. After administration, the area under the curve (AUC) for ephedrine (Eph), pseudoephedrine (Peph), neotuberostemonine (Neo), amygdalin (Amy), and enoxolone (Eno) exhibited a strong linear relationship with the administered dose (r > 0.9) in all rats. And gender-related differences in the absorption of peiminine (Pmn), peimisine (Pms), and chrysin-7-O-glucuronide (Cog) were notable among rats, with male rats showing a dose-dependent pattern of absorption, while female rats exhibited minimal absorption. CONCLUSIONS XBZK contains 57 components, primarily composed of flavonoids, alkaloids, and coumarins. The eight main components were rapidly absorbed and eliminated, with some, such as Eph, Peph, Neo, Amy and Eno, following a linear pharmacokinetic pattern. Furthermore, Pmn, Pms and Cog were well absorbed in male rats, showing a dose-dependent behavior.

Abstract
Three hitherto undescribed Stemona alkaloids, named stemajapines A-C (1-3), along with six known alkaloids (4-9), were isolated and identified from the roots of Stemona japonica (Blume) Miq. (Stemonaceae). Their structures were established by the analysis of the mass data, NMR spectra, and computational chemistry. Stemjapines A and B were degraded maistemonines without spiro-lactone ring and skeletal methyl from maistemonine. Concurrence of alkaloids 1 and 2 revealed an undescribed way to form diverse Stemona alkaloids. Bioassay results disclosed the anti-inflammatory natural constituents stemjapines A and C with IC50 values of 19.7 and 13.8 µM, respectively, compared to positive control dexamethasone with 11.7 µM. The findings may point out a new direction of Stemona alkaloids inaddition to its traditional antitussive and insecticide activities.

Abstract
Rhubarb, a famous traditional Chinese medicine, shows a wide range of physiological activities and pharmacological benefits. Rhubarb anthraquinones are perceived as the pharmacologically active compounds of Rhubarb, and understanding metabolism of them is crucial to assure safety and effectiveness of clinical application. In this study, the pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution and excretion of five rhubarb anthraquinones (aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin, chrysophanol, physcion) were systematically investigated after oral administration of rhubarb extract to rats.An HPLC method was developed and validated for quantitation of five rhubarb anthraquinones in rat plasma, tissues, urine and faeces to investigate the Pharmacokinetic characteristics. The results showed that the proposed method was suitable for the quantification of five anthraquinones in plasma, tissue and excreta samples with satisfactory linear (r > 0.99), precision (<10%) and recovery (85.12-104.20%). The plasma concentration profiles showed a quick absorption with the mean Tmax of 0.42-0.75 h and t1/2 of 6.60-15.11 h for five anthraquinones. The analytes were widely distributed in most of the tissues. Approximately 0.13-10.59% and 28.47-81.14% of five anthraquinones were recovered in urine and faeces within 132 h post-dosing, which indicated the major elimination route was faeces excretion.In summary, this study lays a foundation for elucidating the pharmacokinetic rule of rhubarb anthraquinone and the important data can provide reliable scientific resource for further research.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Plants of genus Stemona (Stemonaceae) have been long used locally and traditionally in many South and East Asian counties to relieve cough, dispel phlegm, prevent asthma, control pests, diminish inflammation, decrease pain, and treat some cutaneous diseases. AIM OF STUDY This review provided comprehensive and up-to-date information about botanic characterization and distribution, ethnopharmacology, secondary metabolites, pharmacological activities, and toxicology of plants of genus Stemona to explore the scientific potential and future therapeutic potential of the plants. MATERIALS AND METHODS This article conducted a literature review on information about the Stemona species in multiple electronic databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Wiley, Science Direct, Elsevier, Google Scholar, ACS publications, SpringerLink, and China National Knowledge Internet. Information was also derived from other literature sources (e.g. Chinese Pharmacopoeia, 2015 edition, Chinese herbal classic books, PhD and MSc thesis). Plant names were validated by "The Plant List" (www.theplantlist.org). All studies of the genus Stemona were included in this review until March 2020. RESULTS Our comprehensive analysis of the scientific literatures indicated that many Stemona species are popular and valuable herbal medicines with therapeutic potentials to treat various ailments. Phytochemical analyses identified alkaloids and stilbenoids as the major bioactive substances of Stemona species. Numerous studies have shown that the extracts and secondary metabolites isolated from these plants have a wide range of pharmacological activities, including insecticidal and antifeedant, antitussive, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antimicrobial, and antivirus activities. CONCLUSION Though plants of genus Stemona have been put to enormous traditional uses, the pharmacological studies conducted were insufficient. Therefore, more secondary metabolites need to be studied for more detailed pharmacological studies. Further studies are also required to establish the mechanisms which mediate the plants' bioactivities in relation to the medicinal uses as well as investigate any potential toxicity for future clinical studies.

Abstract
Stemonae Radix, a medicinal and edible herb, has been reported to possess various pharmacological effects. In the present study, Stemonae Radix was fermented by fungi to improve the antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities. The results showed that Stemonae Radix fermented by Mucor circinelloides T2-12 exhibited two-folds more antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities than non-fermented material. The increased activity might be ascribed to the improvement of total phenolic content, hydrolyzation of glucosides and esters of phenolics and metabolism of saccharides according to ultraviolet and nuclear paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. This paper suggested that fermenting Stemonae Radix with M. circinelloides T2-12 is effective to increase antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase effects and Stemonae Radix fermented by M. circinelloides T2-12 might be newly alternative of natural antioxidant and tyrosinase inhibitor. The present study is the first to report that pure strain fermentation processing is effective in improving the antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities of Stemonae Radix.

Abstract
A sensitive, specific and rapid ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method (UPLC-MS/MS) was developed for simultaneous determination of three main alkaloids (daucicoline, daurisoline, dauricine) in rat plasma, urine and feces after oral administration of menispermi rhizoma capsules. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column (50 mm × 2.1 mm, id, 1.7 μm) with a column temperature of 30 °C and a linear gradient elution using a mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid and acetonitrile. The flow rate was set at 0.3 mL min−1, and the total run time was 10 min. The detection was performed, without interference, using positive electrospray ionization with a multiple reaction monitoring mode. A comprehensive validation of the method was performed. The linearity of the analytical response was good over a wide concentration range with correlation coefficients greater than 0.9903 and the lower limits of quantification were 1.5–5.0 ng mL−1 for all matrices. Both accuracy and precision of the assay were satisfactory. The mean extraction recoveries of analytes and internal standard from rat plasma, urine and feces were all more than 78.3%. The validated methods of the three types of substrates were successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic and excretion study of the three alkaloids in rats after oral administration of menispermi rhizoma capsule. The pharmacokinetics and excretion study of these active components in menispermi rhizoma capsule have not been reported. The results provided a meaningful basis for the clinical application of menispermi rhizoma capsule. A sensitive, specific and rapid UPLC-MS/MS was developed for simultaneous determination of three main alkaloids (daucicoline, daurisoline, dauricine) in rat plasma, urine and feces after oral administration of menispermi rhizoma capsules.![]()

Abstract
Neotuberostemonine (NS) and tuberostemonine (TS), a pair of stereoisomers, are the active components contained in Stemona tuberosa, an antitussive herbal medicine in China. Two isomers have different pharmacological efficacies, which will be related with their in vivo disposition. However, the metabolic fates of NS and TS remain unknown. A method of high performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry coupled with mass detect filter technique was established to investigate the metabolites in rat plasma, bile, urine, and feces after oral administration of the equal doses of NS and TS. The results showed that NS produced 48 phase I metabolites, including NS, 3 hydrolyzed, 14 hydroxylated, 20 monohydrolyzed+hydroxylated and 10 dihydrolyzed+hydroxylated metabolites. The number of detected NS metabolites was 11, 39, 22 and 30 in plasma, bile, urine and feces. TS yielded 23 phase I metabolites, including TS, 3 hydrolyzed, 7 hydroxylated, 9 monohydrolyzed+hydroxylated and 3 dihydrolyzed+hydroxylated metabolites. Besides, TS yielded 9 phase II metabolites, including 1 glucuronic acid and 2 glutathione conjugates, and the later further degraded and modified into cysteine-glycine, cysteine and N-acetylcysteine conjugates. The number of detected TS metabolites was 9, 24, 24 and 15 in plasma, bile, urine and feces. Different metabolic patterns may be one of the main reasons leading to different pharmacological effects of NS and TS.
