In our research, ultraperformance liquid chromatography/quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (U-HPLC/Q-TOF-MS) was established for analyzing the metabolite profiles of Danshensu (DSS) in rat feces, bile, urine, plasma and the possible metabolic pathways were subsequently proposed after the oral dose of 80mg/kg; rat biological samples were collected and pretreated by protein precipitation. Then, the samples were injected into an Acquity ultraperformance liquid chromatography BEHC column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (solvent A)-0.1% formic acid-water (solvent B) with a linear gradient elution program. Totally, 17 metabolites of DSS were identified, including 4, 5, 4 and 4 metabolites in the feces, urine, blood, and bile samples respectively. Most of them were to our knowledge reported for the first time. The results indicated that DSS was metabolized via dehydrogenation, deoxygenation, methylation, glucuronidation, and sulfation pathways in vivo. Among these, methylation was considered as the main physiologic processes of it. This study revealed that U-HPLC/Q-TOF-MS was more accurate and sensitive to detect and identify the possible metabolites and to better understand the metabolism of DSS in vivo.

Saponins are responsible for the clinical effects of leaves, which are traditionally produced as the single herb resource of 'Qiye Shenan Pian' in Chinese patent medicine. In this study, the metabolic characteristics of PNLSs were explored in rat feces. PNLSs as well as their metabolites were analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS).

Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) has a high mortality, and acute aortic repair is the only curative treatment. In patients treated with factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors, the risk of severe disease-related complications such as cardiac tamponade and hemodynamic shock must be balanced against the potential for severe perioperative bleeding. The aim was to study intraoperative changes in plasma levels of the FXa inhibitor apixaban when using hemoadsorption during acute thoracic aortic repair.

Background: The conversion of primary bile acids to secondary bile acids by the gut microbiota has been implicated in colonic inflammation. This study investigated the role of gut microbiota related bile acid metabolism in colonic inflammation in both patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and a murine model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis.
Methods: Bile acids in fecal samples from patients with IBD and DSS-induced colitis mice, with and without antibiotic treatment, were analyzed using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS).

This study aimed to investigate the potential role of Colquhounia Root Tablets against bone destruction in rheumatoid arthritis(RA) and its molecular mechanism. The study used ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to analyze the major components of Colquhounia Root Tablets and predicted its candidate target gene set based on the major components. The key targets of RA bone destruction were obtained through GeneCards and the Database of Genetics and Medical Literature(OMIM), protein-protein interaction(PPI) network was constructed, and the key targets were identified by topological analysis.
