RESUMO
Objective: To explore the in vitro inhibition effect of Zuojin pills on 6 cytochrome P450 isoenzymes ( CYP1A2, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6 and CYP3A4) in human liver microsomes. Methods:The water extract of Zuojin pills, Cop-tidis Rhizoma and Euodiae Fructus was respectively incubated with human liver microsomes in the presence of seven probe substrates of CYP450 isoenzymes, and seven metabolites of cytochrome P450 probe substrate ( paracetamol/CYP1A2, 6α-hydroxypaclitaxel/CYP2C8, 4-hydroxydiclofenac/CYP2C9, 4-hydroxymephenytoin/CYP2C19, dextrorphan/CYP2D6, 6β-hydroxytestosterone/CYP3A4 and 1-hydroxymidazolam/CYP3A4) were simultaneously measured by LC-MS/MS, and the inhibitory effects were evaluated with IC50 value. Results:The IC50 value of Zuojin pills on CYP2D6, CYP1A2 and CYP3A4_T was 11. 6, 77. 4 and 97. 0 μg·ml-1 , respec-tively. The other IC50 values were from 334 to 690μg·ml-1 on CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4_M isoenzymes. The IC50 value of Coptidis Rhizoma on CYP2D6, CYP1A2 and CYP3A4_T was 5. 8, 36. 8 and 59. 2 μg·ml-1 , respectively. The other IC50 values were from 163 to 476 μg·ml-1 on CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4_M isoenzymes. The IC50 value of Euodiae Fructus on CYPs was over 107 μg·ml-1 . Conclusion:Zuojin pills shows notable inhibitory effect on CYP2D6, and weak inhibitory effects on CYP1A2 and CYP3A4_T. Coptidis Rhizoma has similar effects on CYPs and may be the main herbal medicine in the formu-la. Therefore, much attention should be paid to the combination of Zuojin pills and the drugs metabolized by human CYP2D6 in clin-ics.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To prepare ethacridine lactate solution and to evaluate its quality.METHODS: The solution was prepared with ethacridine lactate as principal components and sterilized by steam sterilization.HPLC method was used for the determination of ethacridine.Calesil ODS column was used with mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile-0.05% sodium laurysulfonate (pH=3.0,20 ∶ 20 ∶ 60) at detection wavelength of 270 nm.The column temperature was set at 30 ℃ and injection volume was 10 ?L.The effect of sterilization on the content of preparation was determined.RESULTS: The preparation assumed as yellow transparent solution.The linear range of ethacridine was 5～50 ?g?mL-1(r=0.999 9) with an average recovery of 101.47% (RSD=1.32%,n=9).The content of ethacridine in the solution was not changed after sterilization.CONCLUSION: The quality of prepared ethacridine lactate solution is up to the standard.
