  • 摘要: 建立了超高效液相色谱-线性离子阱/静电场轨道阱组合式高分辨质谱(UHPLC-LTQ Orbitrap MS)联用技术整合多种数据采集、挖掘策略快速分析无患子果皮中苷类化合物;总结了两类无患子皂苷标准品的质谱裂解规律及特征碎片离子,用于无患子果皮中苷类成分的快速筛查和鉴别;探索了母离子列表(parent ion list, PIL)-MS2、PIL-MS3和高能碰撞(high energy collision dissociation, HCD)技术,用于无患子果皮中母核结构相近化合物的精细区分和鉴别;最后通过智能化的In silico策略(Mass Frontier软件中的FISH和MS Tree Match技术)对无患子果皮中新的苷类成分进行高通量筛查,并用HCD碎裂模式验证其预测的可靠性。结果表明,在无患子果皮中共鉴别出67个苷类化合物,其中38个化合物被快速筛查和鉴别,18个母核结构相近的化合物得以精细区分,11个新成分被推测。该方法能够为无患子质量控制及药效学研究提供参考数据,有助于复杂中药成分的快速定性分析。

     

    Abstract: Sapindus mukorossi Gaertn. is a Chinese medicinal herb, which has been used for thousands of years in China. The extract of sapindus pericarp has strong surfactivity and biological activities, such as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antitumor, spermicidal, hepatoprotective and fungicidal activities. The major bioactive compounds of Sapindus mukorossi are saponins and sesquiterpene glysides, which are natural non-ionic suractants. The development of liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry technology (LC/MS) provides a simple and rapid method for complex traditional Chinese medicine. LC/MS technology can not only reach the point of high separating capacity of chromatography but also be provided with high selectivity, sensitivity, relative molecular mass and structure information of mass spectrum. The application of this technique generally involves LC/MS data acquisition, data processing and structure identification.In this study, a method of ultra high performance liquid chromatography-linearion trap/orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-LTQ Orbitrap MS) and a variety of data acquisition and mining strategy were provided for the pericarp of Sapindus mukorossi. The mass spectrum characterization of two kinds of saponins standards were optimized for rapid screening and qualitative identification of glycosides; explored PIL (parent ion list)-MS2, PIL-MS3 and HCD (high energy collision dissociation) techniques for the identification of nucleus structurally similar compounds. Finally, high-throughput screening of new glycosides compounds was performed by using the intelligent In silico strategy (FISH and MS Tree Match in Mass Frontier software), and those new chemical compounds were validated by HCD fragmentation model. Total of 67 glycosides were identified in the pericarp of Sapindus mukorossi, and 38 compounds were quickly screened and identified, 8 compounds with similar nucleolus structures were distinguished, 11 new components were inferred in the plant. This method can provide reference data for the study of Sapindus mukorossi quality control and pharmacodynamics development, and also can provide valuable reference for rapid qualitative analysis of complex traditional Chinese medicine.
