rapid and sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated to quantify artemisinin in rat serum. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 4 ng/mL. The calibration curve was linear from 4 ng/mL to 10,000 ng/mL (R = 0.998). The assay was based on the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) transitions at m/z 305.4-151.10 for artemisinin and m/z 335.2-163.10 for arteether (internal standard). The artemisinin and internal standard can be separated from endogenous interferences in rat serum. Inter- and intra-day assay variation was less than 15%. The extraction recoveries ranged from 80.0 to 107.3% at the three concentrations (5000, 2000, and 200 ng/mL). This method was successfully applied to pharmacokinetic studies of artemisinin after intravenous and oral administration to rats. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Structure-Activity Relationships of the Antimalarial Agent Artemisinin 10. Synthesis and Antimalarial Activity of Enantiomers of rac-5β-Hydroxy-d-Secoartemisinin and Analogs: Implications Regarding the Mechanism of Action

Summary: An efficient synthesis of a tricyclic analog of artemisinin was achieved, with one enantiomer exhibiting antimalarial activity. Unexpectedly, the C-5 hydroxyl group was unreactive, and this unusual reactivity was attributed to a close intramolecular hydrogen bond revealed by X-ray crystallography. Several newly synthesized compounds showed moderate antimalarial activity in vitro.

Summary: This study evaluated different docking methodologies to analyze the interactions between nucleic acids and DNA intercalating agents. A machine learning model was used to estimate the experimental Delta T-m value. The results showed that MolAr is an effective docking method and can be used to estimate the experimental values of DNA intercalating agents.
