A simple and sensitive HPLC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of decitabine and valdecitabine in rat plasma. The analytes were separated on a C(18) column (150mm×4.6mm, 3.5μm) and a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source was applied for detection. A clean solid-phase extraction procedure with cation exchange cartridge was employed to extract the analytes from rat plasma with high recovery of decitabine (>82%). The calibration curves were linear over a concentration range of 10-10,000ng/mL for decitabine and 5-500ng/mL for valdecitabine. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of decitabine and valdecitabine was 10 and 5ng/mL, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precisions were less than 15% and the relative error (RE) was all within ±15%. The validated method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetics study in rats after either decitabine or valdecitabine orally administrated to the Sprague-Dawley rats.

This study aimed to investigate the digestion and absorption properties of caprine milk serum proteins in comparison to human and bovine species by using rat pups to mimic preterm infants. The results indicate that caprine lactoferrin (LTF) had a shorter retention time in the intestine and released a greater number of fragments, resembling human milk LTF more closely. In contrast, caprine immunoglobulins (Igs) were similar to bovine Igs and both exhibited a longer retention time in the intestine.

The aim of this study was to determine the antidotal potential of the chlorinated oxime K870 compared to obidoxime, as a monotherapy and in combination with atropine, in paraoxon (POX)-poisoned rats. The treatment doses of oximes were chosen as 20% of their LD values. The protective ratio (PR) of oxime K870 with atropine was significantly higher than that of obidoxime with atropine (68.

Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) are major components of Gram-negative bacteria. LPS not only induce endotoxemia and inflammation, but also contribute to various diseases. In experimental settings, LPS administration serves as a model for acute inflammatory responses.

Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common pathogenic situation that arises throughout all liver surgeries, including liver transplants. We aimed to compare the preventive effects of valsartan (VST) against valsartan + sacubitril (LCZ696) on hepatic injury caused by IRI. A total of thirty-six male Westar albino rats were split into six groups randomly: sham, IRI, VST + IRI, LCZ696 + IRI, VST, and LCZ696.

Background: In a previous study, we found that Atractylodes macrocephala and Paeoniae radix (AM-PR) was useful for the alleviation of functional constipation (FC). However, the precise mechanism underlying the compatibility between AM and PR in the treatment of FC remains uncertain. This study aims to analyze the pharmacokinetic differences in the active ingredients in the blood of rat models with FC when applied individually and in combination with AM-PR.
