To establish a method for the measurement of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), and tegafur (FT) in tear samples from patients treated with oral fluoropyrimidine anticancer agent S-1.
Cross-sectional study.
High performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method reported for plasma samples was modified for tear samples. Simulated-tear solutions containing lactoferrin, lysozyme and standard solution containing 5-FU or FT were prepared for preliminary measurements. Tear samples from seven patients treated with S-1 were included. The tears were collected following S-1 administration using Schirmer's strips.
5-FU and FT concentrations of pure standard solution without extraction process were detected as original concentration. However, on extraction, FT samples in simulated-tear solution showed a peak for 5-FU but not for FT. FT was converted to 5-FU in the extraction process. Decomposition from FT to 5-FU was suppressed when 50 mg/mL bovine serum albumin was added during extraction. The mean concentrations of 5-FU and FT in tears during S-1 treatment were 0.17 ± 0.11 and 1.94 ± 0.71 μg/mL, respectively.
A simple HPLC method to determine 5-FU and FT in tear samples was established.
建立一种测定口服氟嘧啶类抗癌药物S-1治疗患者泪液样本中5-氟尿嘧啶(5-FU)和替加氟(FT)的方法。
横断面研究。
对已报道的用于血浆样本的高效液相色谱(HPLC)方法进行修改以用于泪液样本。制备含有乳铁蛋白、溶菌酶的模拟泪液溶液以及含有5-FU或FT的标准溶液用于初步测量。纳入7例接受S-1治疗患者的泪液样本。使用泪液试纸在给予S-1后收集泪液。
未经过提取过程的纯标准溶液中的5-FU和FT浓度检测为原始浓度。然而,在提取过程中,模拟泪液溶液中的FT样本显示出5-FU的峰,但未显示FT的峰。FT在提取过程中转化为5-FU。在提取过程中加入50 mg/mL牛血清白蛋白时,FT向5-FU的分解受到抑制。S-1治疗期间泪液中5-FU和FT的平均浓度分别为0.17±0.11和1.94±0.71μg/mL。
建立了一种简单的HPLC方法来测定泪液样本中的5-FU和FT。
