Paeoniflorin-6′- O -benzene sulfonate (code: CP-25), is an active monomer obtained by modifying the structure of paeoniflorin (Pae). CP-25 can alleviate the course of adjuvant arthritis (AA) rats by regulating immune inflammatory response and reducing bone damage. In addition, our research has found that immune cells are important target cells for its anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the pharmacokinetics of CP-25 in immune cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the absorption and efflux of CP-25 in plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of rats. We established a sensitive ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) to rapidly determine CP-25 in plasma and PBMC of rat. We found that the transport amount of CP-25 in PBMC gradually decreased with the increase of time, and reached equilibrium after 1 h. Moreover, there is a certain correlation between the concentration of CP-25 in plasma and the concentration of CP-25 in PBMC. In addition, we used several transporter inhibitors to study their effects on the efflux of CP-25 in PBMC. The efflux of CP-25 in PBMC increased with the increase of time in the first 30 min, and the efflux of CP-25 decreased gradually after 30 min. Furthermore, after multiple administration of 50 mg/kg in rats, concentration of CP-25 in PBMC is similar to the change of concentration of CP-25 in plasma. Our results suggest that CP-25 may enter PBMC by passive transport, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) may be involved in the efflux of CP-25 in PBMC. This research provides a basis and guidance for further study of the clinical application of CP-25.

Paeoniflorin (Pae), a water-soluble monoterpene glucoside, is the main effective component of total glucoside of paeony (TGP). Pae has a very low bioavailability (3.6%). The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sex, food and disease status on the pharmacokinetics of paeoniflorin-6′-O-benzene sulfonate (acylated derivative of Pae, CP-25) and its primary metabolite (Pae, M1) after oral administration in the plasma of rats. A specific and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) assay for rapid determination of CP-25 and Pae in rat plasma was developed and validated for the first time. The assay was validated in terms of selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, recovery, matrix effects and stability. We found that CP-25 had a more extensive distribution in females than that in males, but no differences in M1 levels were found. Food intake could also increase the extent of absorption and decrease the rate of clearance for CP-25 and M1 after oral administration in rats. The disease status would decrease the absorption of CP-25 in rats. Comparing single-doing and multiple-dosing in an adjuvant arthritis (AA) model, the absorption of CP-25 and M1 improved with increasing dosage. Furthermore, during the period of multiple-dosing, CP-25 exhibited a better anti-inflammatory effect in AA rats and no obvious side effects occurred during the dosing period. Our findings provide the basis, and some guidelines, for further studies into the clinical application of CP-25.

Paeoniflorin-6′-O-benzene sulfonate (CP-25) is a derivative of Paeoniflorin. We investigate beneficial effect of CP-25 on methotrexate (MTX) induced nephrotoxicity in rats. Plasma blood urea nitrogen (Bun), plasma creatinine (CREA), urine CREA and protein in the rats were quantitatively measured. Renal tissues were pathologically observed, and apoptosis was detected. Apoptosis related proteins and organic anion transporter-3 (OAT3) expression were determined by western blotting analysis. MTX induced nephrotoxicity and hematotoxicity in rats with abnormal levels of serum Bun, serum CERA, 24 h urine protein excretion, white blood cells, platelets, plateletcrit and abnormal renal pathological appearance. Either pre-treatment or treatment of CP-25 restored normal levels of hematological and renal function parameters, and improved histopathology in rats treated with MTX. CP-25 prevented MTX induced apoptosis of renal tubular cells, and the effect was further confirmed by its regulatory effects on abnormal expression of Bax, cleaved-caspase-3, cleaved-caspase-8, Cyt-c, Bcl-2. The other important finding is co-administration of CP-25 with MTX significantly increased MTX renal excretion in the damaged rats, and the effect is supposed to be linked with its regulation on abnormal renal OAT3 expression. Taken together, CP-25 shows well protective activity against MTX induced nephrotoxicity, and this effect is via its anti-apoptosis and detoxification properties.

Paeoniflorin-6′-O-benzene sulfonate (code: CP-25) is a novel ester derivative of paeoniflorin (Pae). Compared to Pae, CP-25 has higher lipid solubility, bioavailability and better bioactivity. However, the tissue distribution and excretion of CP-25 still remain unknown. The LC–MS method was applied to investigate the tissue distribution and excretion of CP-25 in rats. As such, 50 mg/kg of CP-25 and Pae were administered to rats in multiple doses via an oral route. CP-25 and Pae were distributed widely and rapidly in all the tested tissues. Compared with Pae, the concentrations of CP-25 were almost increased evidently in most tissues. The highest CP-25 level was found in the liver (1476.33 ± 535.20 ng/g, male; 1970.38 ± 177.21 ng/g, female) at 3 h, and a high concentration of CP-25 was detected in male and female intestine, synovium, muscle, lung, and brain. Following a single oral dose of 50 mg/kg of CP-25 in rats, the total excretion of CP-25 was merely 21.8% (18.40, 3.19 and 0.22% for feces, bile and urine, respectively) in males; and was approximately 21.3% (14.04, 7.16 and 0.14% for feces, bile and urine, respectively) in females. The results indicated that the CP-25 concentration was higher in major tissues than Pae; CP-25 was primarily excreted through the feces; and there were gender-related differences in the tissue distribution and excretion.

Paeoniflorin-6'-O-benzene sulfonate (CP-25), is a novel derivative of paeoniflorin (Pae) with improved anti-arthritic effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic effects and pharmacokinetics of CP-25 when co-administered with MTX in adjuvant-induced arthritis (AA) rats. AA rats were randomly divided into 6 groups and treated as follows: TGP (50 mg/kg/day, ig), CP-25 (50 mg/kg/day, ig), MTX (0.5 mg/kg, 3 times/week, ig), TGP (50 mg/kg/day, ig) + MTX (0.5 mg/kg, 3 times/week, ig) and CP-25 (50 mg/kg/day, ig) + MTX (0.5 mg/kg, 3 times/week, ig) from days 14 - 35 after induction. Clinical, biochemical, and histological scores were used to assess the severity of arthritis while novel ultra-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) was used to detect plasma concentration of CP-25. Co-administration of CP-25 and MTX significantly reduced clinical signs of inflammation, suppressed the serum production of IL-17 compared to TGP (50 mg/kg/day, ig) and MTX (0.5 mg/kg, 3 times/week, ig). Pharmacokinetics studies showed increased AUC 0-t , C max , and t 1/2 of CP-25 while V/F and CL/F decreased when co-administered with MTX. We observed an increase concentration and longer exposure with decreased clearance of CP-25 when combined with MTX, that should be further explored for clinical RA therapy.
