Influence of sulfur-fumigation on pharmacokinetic of peimine and peiminine of Fritillaria thunbergii in rat / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the influence of sulfur-fumigation on pharmacokinetic of peimine and peiminine of Fritillaria thunbergii in rat plasma by LC-MS/MS. Methods: After random grouping, 18 SD rats were given the solution of fresh-cut and sulfur-fumigated F. thunbergii by ig administration. The blood drug concentration of peimine and peiminine in rat plasma was determined by HPLC-MS/MS, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with 3P97 software. Results: The pharmacokinetic parameters of peimine and peiminine of sulfur-fumigated F. thunbergii in rat plasma were (66.40 ± 4.65), (146.72 ± 10.88) ng/mL for Cmax, and (181.79 ± 7.85), (457.38 ± 58.81) ng∙h/mL for AUC, respectively. Those of fresh-cut sample in rat plasma were (186.37 ± 18.8), (227.65 ± 7.01) ng/mL for Cmax, and (197.70 ± 18.69), (566.16 ± 41.55) ng∙h/mL for AUC, respectively. The pharmacokinetic parameters of perimine and peiminine of sulfur-fumigated sample in rat plasma were less than those of fresh-cut sample. Conclusion: The results showed that sulfur-fumigation decreased the bioavailability of peimine and peiminine. This study could provide a basis for further clarifying the influence of sulfur-fumigation on efficacy material base of F.thunbergii.
