Isorhamnetin, a main flavonoid component from the water extract of Sophorae Flos (an unopened dry flower bud ofSophora japonica), ameliorates uric acid levels and renal function by inhibiting XOD activity in hyperuricemic mice.

Aim: GW788388 is a selective and orally active TGF-β1 receptor inhibitor that shows potent activity in renal fibrosis. We aimed to establish and validate a simple and sensitive ultra-performance LC...

VS-5584 is a small-molecular compound that showed equivalent activity against mTOR and all class I PI3K isoforms and demonstrated preclinical activity in diverse cancer cell lines and xenograft tumor model, and rational combination of VS-5584 and other target therapies achieved promising outcomes in oncology. In the present study, we established and validated a simple and sensitive UPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of VS-5584 in plasma samples. VS-5584 was separated via an Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column, with a mobile phase composed of acetonitrile and 0.2% formic acid in water (40 : 60). The calibration curve displayed a good linearity in the range of 1.0–1000 ng/mL, with satisfactory accuracy (−13.6% < RE% < 8.8%) and precision (CV%, less than 9.2%). The validated method was then applied to a pharmacokinetic study in rats. After administration of 10 mg/kg, VS-5584 was absorbed quickly and reached a peak concentration of 473.2 ± 72.0 ng/mL after 20 min. The established method allows for the quantification of VS-5584 in rat plasma in detail and can be utilized to successfully describe the pharmacokinetic profile of VS-5584.
