DNA was employed in a novel way to contribute to the electroanalysis. Electrochemical oxidized DNA modified glassy carbon electrode (DNA/GCE) by potentiostatic method for Levotetrahydropalmatine (L-THP) determination was prepared. For the first time, L-THP was investigated by electrochemical sensor, and the results indicated that this voltammetric sensor exhibited a special recognition capacity towards L-THP determination. Under the optimize condition, the response peak currents had a linear relationship with the L-THP concentrations in range from 5.6×10 -5 mol L -1 to 2.8×10 -3 molL -1 with detection limit of 2.×10 -6 moi . L -1 .

The mass spectrometer is an important tool for modern chemical analysis and detection. Especially, the emergence of miniature mass spectrometers has provided new tools for field analysis and detection. The resolution of a mass spectrometer reflects the ability of the instrument to discriminate between adjacent mass-to-charge ratio ions, and the higher the resolution, the better the discrimination of complex mixtures. Quadrupole ion traps are generally considered as a low-resolution mass spectrometry method, but they have gained wide attention and development in recent years because of their suitability for miniaturization and high qualitative capability. For an ion trap mass spectrometer, the mass sensitivity and resolution can be mutually constrained and need to be balanced by setting an appropriate scanning speed. In this study, a super-resolution U-net algorithm (SR-Unet) is proposed for ion trap mass spectrometry, which can estimate the possible ions from the overlapping ion peaks of low-resolution spectra and improve the equivalent resolution while ensuring sufficient sensitivity and analysis speed of the instrument. By determining the mass spectra of a linear ion trap mass spectrometer (LTQ XL) in Turbo and Normal scan modes, the same unit mass resolution as that at a scan speed of 16,667 Da/s was successfully obtained at 125,000 Da/s. Also, the experiments demonstrated that the algorithm is capable of the mass-to-charge ratio and instrument migration. SR-Unet can be migrated and applied to a miniature mass spectrometer for cruise detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and the identification of VOC species in Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Stations (PAMS) was improved from 31 to 50 species with the same monitoring and analysis speed requirement. Further, super-unit mass resolution peptide detection was achieved on a miniature mass spectrometer with the help of the SR-Unet algorithm, which reduced the full width at half-maxima (FWHM) of bradykinin divalent ions (m/z 531) from 0.35 to 0.15 Da at a scan speed of 375 Da/s and improved the equivalent resolution to 3540. The proposed method provides a new idea to enhance the field mixture detection capability of miniature ion trap mass spectrometers.

Dehydrocorydaline (DHC), one of the main active components of Corydalis yanhusuo, is an important remedy for the treatment of coronary heart disease. Our previous study revealed a higher unbound concentration of DHC in the heart than plasma of mice after oral administration of C. yanhusuo extract or DHC, but the underlying uptake mechanism remains unelucidated. In our investigations, we studied the transport mechanism of DHC in transgenic cells, primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, and animal experiments. Using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting, we found that uptake transporters expressed in the mouse heart include organic cation transporter 1/3 (OCT1/3) and carnitine/organic cation transporter 1/2 (OCTN1/2). The accumulation experiments in transfected cells showed that DHC was a substrate of OCT1 and OCT3, with Km of 11.29 ± 3.3 and 8.96 ± 3.7 μM, respectively, but not a substrate of OCTN1/2. Additionally, a higher efflux level (1.71-fold of MDCK-mock) of DHC was observed in MDCK-MDR1 cells than in MDCK-mock cells. Therefore, DHC is a weak substrate for MDR1. Studies using primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes showed that OCT1/3 inhibitors (quinidine, decynium-22, and levo-tetrahydropalmatine) prevented the accumulation of DHC, whereas OCTN2 inhibitors (mildronate and l-carnitine) did not affect its accumulation. Moreover, the coadministration of OCT1/3 inhibitors (levo-tetrahydropalmatine, THP) decreased the concentration of DHC in the mouse heart. Based on these findings, DHC may be accumulated partly by OCT1/3 transporters and excreted by MDR1 in the heart. THP could alter the distribution of DHC in the mouse heart.

Sulpiride, a selective dopamine D2 receptor blocker, is used widely for the treatment of schizophrenia, depression and gastric/duodenal ulcers. Because the great majority of sulpiride is positively charged at physiological pH 7.4, and ~70% of the dose recovered in urine is in the unchanged form after human intravenous administration of sulpiride, it is believed that transporters play an important role in the renal excretion of sulpiride. The aim of the present study was to explore which transporters contribute to the renal disposition of sulpiride. The results demonstrated that sulpiride was a substrate of human carnitine/organic cation transporter 1 (hOCTN1) and 2 (hOCTN2), human organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2), human multidrug and toxin efflux extrusion protein 1 (hMATE1) and 2-K (hMATE2-K). Sulpiride accumulation from the basolateral (BL) to the apical (AP) side in MDCK-hOCT2/pcDNA3.1 cell monolayers was much greater than that in MDCK-hOCT2/hMATE1 cells, and cimetidine dramatically reduced the intracellular accumulation of sulpiride from BL to AP. In addition, the accumulation of sulpiride in mouse primary renal tubular cells ( m PRTCs) was markedly reduced by inhibitors of Oct2 and Octns. The results implied that OCTN1, OCTN2, OCT2, MATE1 and MATE2-K probably contributed to the renal transfer of sulpiride, in which OCT2 mediated the uptake of sulpiride from the bloodstream to the proximal tubular cells, while MATEs contributed to the sulpiride efflux from the proximal tubular cells to the renal lumen, and OCTNs participated in both renal secretion and reabsorption.

The present study was designed to construct the structurally diverse library of tetrahydroprotoberberines (THPBs) by combining the methods of chemical nonselective demethylation and microbial glycosylation. HPLC-MS/MS analyses tentatively identified 12 de-methylated and 9 glycosylated derivates of THPBs and 5 rarely oxidized glycosides of THPBs in the library. Through this effort, we achieved not only a variety of the THPBs and their glycosides but also tested the catalytic characteristics and capabilities of G. deliquescens NRRL 1086.
