Simultaneous quantification of bioactive components in Chinese herbal spirits by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QQQ-MS/MS).

ABSTRACT:

Background

The Chinese medicinal wine made from herbal medicines became prevalent among Chinese people. The Chinese herbal spirit is composed of several herbal extracts, and has the certain health functions, such as anti-fatigue and immune regulation. The quality evaluation of Chinese herbal spirit is greatly challenged by the enormous and complex components with great structural diversity and wide range of concentration distribution.

Methods

An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QQQ-MS/MS) with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) method was developed to simultaneously determine forty-three bioactive components in the Chinese herbal spirits produced by year 2014 and 2018.

Results

Quantitative results showed that 11 components, i.e.., puerarin (5), purpureaside C (7), daidzin (8), echinacoside (9), acteoside (15), epimedin B (22), epimedin C (23), icariin (24), eugenol (27), chikusetsusaponin iva (30) and Z-ligustilide (40), significantly decreased along with the increasing years of storage, while 5 compounds, i.e.., geniposidic acid (1), protocatechuic acid (2), crustecdysone (14), daidzein (18) and icariside I (35), were basically stable in all samples across the years.

Concusion

The established method allowing to simultaneously determined 43 components with wide structural diversity and trace amounts will facilitate the quality control research of Chinese herbal spirits.

Project description:Withania somnifera is a traditional Indian herb described under the 'Rasayana' class in Ayurveda, which gained immense popularity as a dietary supplement in the USA, Europe, Asia, and the Indian domestic market. Despite enormous research on the pharmacological effect of withanosides and withanolides, bioanalytical method development and pharmacokinetics remained challenging and unexplored for these constituents due to isomeric and isobaric characteristics. In current research work, molecular descriptors, pharmacokinetic, and toxicity prediction (ADMET) of these constituents were performed using Molinspiration and admetSAR tools. A rapid, selective, and reproducible bioanalytical method was developed and validated for seven withanosides and withanolides as per USFDA/EMA guidelines, further applied to determine pharmacokinetic parameters of Withania somnifera root extract (WSE) constituents in male Sprague Dawley rats at a dose of 500 mg/kg. Additionally, an ex vivo permeability study was carried out to explore the absorption pattern of withanosides and withanolides from the intestinal lumen. In silico, ADMET revealed oral bioavailability of withanosides and withanolides following Lipinski's rules of five with significant absorption from the gastrointestinal tract and the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. Upon oral administration of WSE, Cmax was found to be 13.833 ± 3.727, 124.415 ± 64.932, 57.536 ± 7.523, and 7.283 ± 3.341 ng/mL for withanoside IV, withaferin A, 12-Deoxy-withastramonolide, and withanolide A, respectively, with Tmax of 0.750 ± 0.000, 0.250 ± 0.000, 0.291 ± 0.102, and 0.333 ± 0.129 h. Moreover, at a given dose, withanoside V, withanolide B, and withanone were detected in plasma; however, the concentration of these constituents was found below LLOQ. Thus, these four major withanoside and withanolides were quantified in plasma supported by ex vivo permeation data exhibiting a time-dependent absorption of withanosides and withanolides across the intestinal barrier. These composite findings provide insights to design a clinical trial of WSE as a potent nutraceutical.
