ABSTRACT

Creatine, phosphocreatine, and adenine nucleotides are highly polar markers of myocardial metabolism that are poorly retained on RP silica sorbents. Zirconia represents an alternative material to silica with high promise to be used in hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC). This study describes a first systematic investigation of the ability of ZrO2 to separate creatine, phosphocreatine, adenosine 5'-monophosphate, adenosine 5'-diphosphate, and adenosine 5'-triphosphate and compares the results with those obtained on TiO2 . All analytes showed a HILIC-like retention pattern when mobile phases of different strengths were tested. Stronger retention and better column performance were achieved in organic-rich mobile phases as compared to aqueous conditions, where poor retention and insufficient column performance were observed. The effect of mobile phase pH and ionic strength was evaluated as well. The analysis of myocardial tissue demonstrated that all compounds were separated in a relevant biological material and thus proved ZrO2 as a promising phase for HILIC of biological samples that deserves further investigation.

ABSTRACT

Dexrazoxane (DEX) is the only clinically used drug effective against anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity and extravasation injury. However, the mechanism of its cardioprotective action still remains elusive. This paucity of comprehensive data is at least partially caused by the analytical difficulties associated with selective and sensitive simultaneous determination of the parent drug and its putative active metabolite ADR-925 in the relevant biological material. The aim of this study was to develop and validate the first LC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of DEX and ADR-925 in the isolated rat neonatal ventricular cardiomyocytes (NVCMs) and the cell culture medium. The analysis was performed on a Synergi Polar-RP column using the gradient profile of the mobile phase composed of 2mM ammonium formate and methanol. Electrospray ionization and ion trap mass analyzer were used as ionization and detection techniques, respectively. NVCMs were precipitated with methanol and the cell culture medium samples were diluted with the same solvent prior the LC-MS/MS analysis. The method was validated within the range of 4-80pmol/10(6) NVCMs and 7-70pmol/10(6) NVCMs for DEX and ADR-925, respectively, and at the concentrations of 8-100µM for both compounds in the culture cell medium. The practical applicability of this method was confirmed by the pilot analysis of NVCMs and the corresponding cell medium samples from relevant in vitro experiment. Hence, the LC-MS/MS method developed in this study represents a modern analytical tool suitable for investigation of DEX bioactivation inside the cardiomyocytes. In addition, the basic utility of the method for the analysis of DEX and ADR-925 in plasma samples was proved in a pilot experiment.
