Description
Summary:After being steamed, the restorative effects of Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F. H. Chen (Araliaceae) will be strengthened. However, the underlying mechanism remains elusive. To compare the pharmacokinetics of ginsenosides Rg 1 , Rb 1 , Rd, Re, Rg 5 , Rk 1 , notoginsenoside R 1 (GRg 1 , GRb 1 , GRd, GRe, GRg 5 , GRk 1 and NGR 1 ) in the raw and steam-processed P. notoginseng (RPN and SPN). The pharmacokinetics of seven components after oral administration of SPN and RPN extracts (1.0 g/kg) were investigated, respectively, in SD rats (two groups, n = 6) using UPLC-MS/MS. The approach elicited good linear regression (r 2 > 0.991). The accuracy, precision and stability were all within ± 15%. The extraction recoveries and matrix effects were 75.0-100.8% and 85.1-110.3%, respectively. Compared with the RPN group, AUC 0- t of GRg 1 (176.63 ± 42.49 ng/h/mL), GRb 1 (5094.06 ± 1453.14 ng/h/mL), GRd (1396.89 ± 595.14 ng/h/mL), and NGR 1 (135.95 ± 54.32 ng/h/mL), along with C max of GRg 1 (17.41 ± 5.43 ng/mL), GRb 1 (361.48 ± 165.57 ng/mL), GRd (62.47 ± 33.65 ng/mL) and NGR 1 (23.97 ± 16.77 ng/mL) decreased remarkably with oral administration of the SPN extracts, while GRe showed no significantly difference. Of note, GRg 5 and GRk 1 could not be detected in the plasma. Influence of the processing reduced the systemic exposure levels to GRg 1 , GRb 1 , GRd and NGR 1 . It is the first report of comparative pharmacokinetic study of multiple saponins analysis after oral administration of RPN and SPN extract, which might be helpful for further studies on its steam-processing mechanism.
