Schisandrol B, a lignan isolated from dried fruits, has been shown to exhibit hepatoprotective, cardioprotective, renoprotective, and memory-enhancing properties. This study sought to design a sensitive and efficient HPLC-MS/MS approach to measuring Schisandrol B levels in rat plasma and tissues in order to assess the pharmacokinetics, oral bioavailability, and tissue distributions of this compound . For this analysis, bifendate was chosen as an internal standard (IS). A liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) approach was employed for the preparation of samples that were subsequently separated with an Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C (4.6 × 150 mm, 5 m) column with an isocratic mobile phase consisting of methanol and water containing 5 mM ammonium acetate and 0.1% formic acid (90 : 10, v/v). A linear calibration curve was obtained over the 5-2000 ng/mL and 1-1000 ng/mL ranges for plasma samples and tissue homogenates, respectively. This established method was then successfully applied to investigate the pharmacokinetics, oral bioavailability, and tissue distributions of Schisandrol B in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats that were intravenously administered 2 mg/kg of Schisandrol B monomer, intragastrically administered Schisandrol B monomer (10 mg/kg), or intragastrically administered 6 mL/kg SCE (equivalent to 15 mg/kg Schisandrol B monomer). The oral absolute bioavailability of Schisandrol B following intragastric Schisandrol B monomer and SCE administration was approximately 18.73% and 68.12%, respectively. Tissue distribution studies revealed that Schisandrol B was distributed throughout several tested tissues, with particular accumulation in the liver and kidneys. Our data represent a valuable foundation for future studies of the pharmacologic and biological characteristics of Schisandrol B.
五味子醇乙是从五味子干燥果实中分离得到的一种木脂素,已被证明具有肝脏保护、心脏保护、肾脏保护和增强记忆的特性。本研究旨在设计一种灵敏且高效的HPLC-MS/MS方法,用于测定大鼠血浆和组织中五味子醇乙的含量,以评估该化合物的药代动力学、口服生物利用度和组织分布。为此分析,选择联苯双酯作为内标(IS)。采用液-液萃取(LLE)方法制备样品,随后使用安捷伦ZORBAX Eclipse XDB-C(4.6×150 mm,5μm)色谱柱进行分离,等度流动相由甲醇和含有5 mM醋酸铵和0.1%甲酸的水组成(90∶10,v/v)。血浆样品和组织匀浆分别在5-2000 ng/mL和1-1000 ng/mL范围内获得线性校准曲线。然后将该既定方法成功应用于研究给予2 mg/kg五味子醇乙单体静脉注射、给予五味子醇乙单体(10 mg/kg)灌胃或给予6 mL/kg五味子醇乙提取物(相当于15 mg/kg五味子醇乙单体)灌胃的Sprague-Dawley(SD)大鼠中五味子醇乙的药代动力学、口服生物利用度和组织分布。灌胃给予五味子醇乙单体和五味子醇乙提取物后,五味子醇乙的口服绝对生物利用度分别约为18.73%和68.12%。组织分布研究表明,五味子醇乙分布于多个测试组织中,尤其在肝脏和肾脏中蓄积。我们的数据为未来研究五味子醇乙的药理和生物学特性提供了有价值的基础。
