چکیده

To study the metabolites of glycyrrhetic acid (GA) in rat bile, an analytical method was developed to identify GA and its metabolites by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Rat bile was collected after i.v. injection of GA. Three major GA-related peaks were detectable in rat bile by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis at 254 nm. LC-MS spectra showed their protonated molecular ions at m/z 727, 647, and 551. Furthermore, the three metabolites were also confirmed to exist in rat bile on LC-MS total ion chromatogram (TIC). Taken together with the susceptible nature to beta-glucuronidase digestion and alkaline conditions, they were identified to be a novel sulfate-glucuronide diconjugate and the known monoglucuronide and sulfate conjugate, respectively.

Conjugation of desmethylnaproxen in the rat--a novel acyl glucuronide-sulfate diconjugate as a major biliary metabolite.

The nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug naproxen is primarily metabolized in humans by acyl glucuronidation to form naproxen acyl glucuronide and by O-dealkylation to form 6-O-desmethylnaproxen (DMN). DMN contains both carboxy and phenolic groups and has been shown to form acyl glucuronide and sulfate conjugates. This project aimed to investigate whether DMN formed a phenolic glucuronide and di...

Bisphenol A glucuronide/sulfate diconjugate in perfused liver of rats

In isolated hepatocytes, the environmental estrogen bisphenol A (BPA) is metabolized into a mono-glucuronide and a glucuronide/sulfate diconjugate. Little is known about the fate of the diconjugate in the liver. The present study focused on the metabolism and dispostion of BPA diconjugate in the liver using a perfusion method. In Sprague-Dawley rats, BPA (15,150 or 1,500 nmol) was applied into ...

Efavirenz (Sustiva) is a potent and specific inhibitor of the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase and is approved for the treatment of HIV infection. The metabolism of efavirenz in different species has been described previously. Efavirenz is primarily metabolized in rats to the glucuronide conjugate of 8-OH efavirenz. Electrospray ionization-liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry analyses of bile sam...

Metabolism of bisphenol a in primary cultured hepatocytes from mice, rats, and humans.

Studies have shown that in the rat, bisphenol A (BPA) is metabolized and eliminated primarily as a monoglucuronide, a metabolite without estrogenic activity. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of monoglucuronide formation in monolayers of hepatocytes from rats, mice, and humans. Noncytotoxic concentrations of BPA (10, 20, and 35 microM; 1.0 microCi), as assessed by lactate de...

A method for semi-micro high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been established for the simultaneous determination of glycyrrhizin (GL), glycyrrhetic acid (GA) and glycyrrhetic acid mono-glucuronide (GAMG) in incubation mixtures of rat feces with Shakuyaku-kanzo-to decoction (combination of licorice root and peony root). The analysis could be accomplished within 20 min with a TSKgel ...
