Epalrestat is clinically applied for the management of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, yet its pharmacokinetic properties are not well understood. In this study, a rapid and sensitive LC-MS/MS method was established for assaying epalrestat in bio-samples of mice. The method was validated and it showed a good linearity over the range of 2-5000ng/mL, a precision of less than 12.3%, and recovery and matrix effects of 112.5-123.6% and 87.9-89.5%, respectively. After administration of a single dose of epalrestat administered, the exposure level of AUC was positively dose-dependent and the mean C, AUC, T, and MRT were 36.23±7.39μg/mL, 29,086.5μg/Lh, 1.2h and 1.8h, respectively. Epalrestat was highly exposed in stomach, intestine, liver and kidney, and only a small amount was detected in brain, urine and feces. Multi-dose of epalrestat significantly increased MRT and apparent volume of distribution (V) relative to those of a single-dose.
依帕司他临床上用于治疗糖尿病性周围神经病变,但其药代动力学特性尚未完全明确。本研究建立了一种快速灵敏的液相色谱-串联质谱法(LC-MS/MS),用于测定小鼠生物样品中的依帕司他。该方法经过验证,在2-5000ng/mL范围内线性良好,精密度小于12.3%,回收率和基质效应分别为112.5-123.6%和87.9-89.5%。单次给予依帕司他后,AUC的暴露水平呈正剂量依赖性,平均C、AUC、T和MRT分别为36.23±7.39μg/mL、29,086.5μg/Lh、1.2h和1.8h。依帕司他在胃、肠、肝和肾中暴露量高,在脑、尿液和粪便中仅检测到少量。与单次给药相比,多次给予依帕司他显著增加了MRT和表观分布容积(V)。
