Resumo

Lychnopholide is a sesquiterpene lactone usually obtained from Lychnophora and Eremanthus species and has pharmacological activities that include anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor. Lychnopholide isolated from Eremanthus matogrossenssis was analyzed in this study. The aims of this study were to develop and validate an analytical methodology by LC-MS/MS and to quantify lychnopholide in rat plasma. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a C-18 column using isocratic elution with the mobile phase consisting of methanol and water (containing 0.1% formic acid) at a flow rate of 0.4mL/min. The detection was performed in multiple-reaction monitoring mode using electrospray ionization in positive mode. The method validation was performed in accordance with regulatory guidelines and the results met the acceptance criteria. The linear range of detection was 10-200ng/mL (r>0.9961). The intra- and inter-day assay variability were <6.2 and <11.7%, respectively. The extraction recovery was approximately 63% using liquid-liquid extraction with chloroform. Lychnopholide was detected in plasma up to 60min after intravenous administration in rats. This rapid and sensitive method for the analysis of the sesquiterpene lactone lychnopholide in rat plasma can be applied to pharmacokinetic studies of this compound.
