Abstract
Angeloylgomisin H, as a major lignin in the fruits, was reported to have the potential to improve insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by activating PPAR-γ. In this work, a sensitive and selective UPLC-MS/MS method for determination of angeloylgomisin H in rat plasma is developed. After addition of rutin as an internal standard (IS), protein precipitation by acetonitrile was used to prepare samples. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm × 100 mm, 1.7 μm) with 0.1% formic acid and acetonitrile as the mobile phase with gradient elution. An electrospray ionization source was applied and operated in positive ion mode; multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) mode was used for quantification using target fragment ions m/z 523.2-315.1 for angeloylgomisin H, and m/z 611.1-303.1 for IS. Calibration plots were linear throughout the range 5-2000 ng/mL for angeloylgomisin H in rat plasma. Mean recoveries of angeloylgomisin H in rat plasma ranged from 86.2% to 92.5%. RSD of intra-day and inter-day precision were both < 11%. The accuracy of the method was between 93.0% and 104.1%. The method was successfully applied to pharmacokinetic study of angeloylgomisin H after either oral or intravenous administration. The absolute bioavailability of angeloylgomisin H was reported as high as 4.9%.
