Popis: Objective This study aimed to compare pharmacokinetics of rhubarb total free anthraquinones (AQs) oral colon-specific delivery granules (RTFA-OCDD-GN) and rhubarb after oral administration to evaluate the colonic-target releasing characteristic of RTFA-OCDD-GN and the impact of five AQs components on the contribution of the attenuation of nephrotoxicity. Methods The compare pharmacokinetics of RTFA-OCDD-GN and rhubarb was performed in rats. The plasma concentrations of aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin, chrysophanol and physcion were assayed by a validated UPLC-MS/MS method. Results The pharmacokinetics results showed that the AUC0-72h of aloe-emodin, emodin, chrysophanol and physcion was decreased by 3.09-fold (p 0.05) compared with group rhubarb samples. However the dose-normalized AUC0-72h of aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin and chrysophanol was decreased by 1.90-fold (p Conclusion These differences on pharmacokinetic parameters indicated that RTFA-OCDD-GN delivered AQs to colon. The systemic exposure reduction of aloe-emodin, emodin and physcion in group RTFA-OCDD-GN could contribute to the attenuation of nephyrotoxicity caused by rhubarb.
