Objective: To establish a HPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of vitexin in rat plasma and its pharmacokinetics.
Methods: The HPLC-MS/MS method used Capcell Pak C18 column (50 mm x 2.0 mm I. D., 5 microm). The mobile phase was methanol and water (95:5, V/V, containing 0.1% formic acid) at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. Electrospray ionization (ESI) in negative ion mode and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was used for the quantification of vitexin with a monitored transitions m/z 431-->311 for vitexin and m/z 269-->225 for internal standard (I. S., emodin).
Results: Linear calibration curves were obtained over the concentration range of 0.5-2000 ng/mL (r = 0.9960) with the lowest limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.5 ng/mL. The recovery was in the range of 76.1%-89.0%. The relative standard deviations for the intra-day and inter-day validation were less than 11%.
Conclusion: The method is simple, accurate, fast, sensitive and suitable for the pharmacokinetic study of vitexin in rats.

Benzophenone derivatives (BPs), as synthetic chemicals widely used in personal care products, have drawn increasing attention due to their potential health risks. However, monitoring BPs in biological samples remains challenging due to their complex matrices and the deficiency in sensitivity and selectivity in current methods. Herein, a method combining hierarchically flower-like hollow covalent organic frameworks (HFH-COFs) with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) was established for the enrichment and detection of BPs in serum samples.

Background: Our group and others have recently identified four molecular groups of meningioma, with unique underlying biology and outcomes. The relevance of group-specific metabolite profiles (particularly among hypermetabolic tumours), has not been explored.
Methods: We performed untargeted metabolic profiling of meningiomas representing each molecular group and WHO grade.

Introduction: Breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is an efflux membrane transporter that controls the pharmacokinetics of a large number of drugs. Its activity may change when taking some endo- and exogenous substances, thus making it a link in drug interactions.
Aim: The aim of the study was to develop a methodology for testing drugs for belonging to BCRP substrates and inhibitors in vitro.

This review describes mass spectrometry (MS)-based approaches for the absolute quantification of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), focusing on technical challenges in sample treatment and calibration. Therapeutic mAbs are crucial for treating cancer and inflammatory, infectious, and autoimmune diseases. We trace their development from hybridoma technology and the first murine mAbs in 1975 to today's chimeric and fully human mAbs.
