Popis: BACKGROUND:: The folate antagonist methotrexate (MTX) is the anchor drug in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The therapeutic effects of MTX are attributed to the intracellular levels of MTX, present in the cell as polyglutamates (MTX-PGs). We aimed to validate an immunoassay for the measurement of MTX-PG in erythrocytes. METHODS:: Samples were analyzed by an adapted fluorescence polarization immune assay (FPIA) method on the FLx analyzer (Abbott). Cross-reactivity was determined in both plasma and erythrocyte pellet. In erythrocyte pellet, the imprecision, linearity, and lower limit of quantitation were determined. The method was compared with our in-house liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for total MTX-PG. RESULTS:: For the adapted FPIA method, a linear range of 25-1000 nmol/L (R = 0.993) was obtained for total MTX-PG in erythrocytes. A coefficient of variation of
