The study on the most popular HIF stabilizer roxadustat and its metabolites in thoroughbred horse urine after oral administration confirmed its effectiveness in treating anemia resulting from chronic kidney disease and provided important evidence for doping control analysis.
Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) stabilizer belongs to a novel class of pharmacologically active substances, which are capable of inducing the endogenous erythropoietic system. The transcriptional activator HIF has been shown to significantly increase blood hemoglobin and is well set for the treatment of anemia resulting from chronic kidney disease. This research work reports a comprehensive study of the most popular HIF stabilizer roxadustat and its metabolites in thoroughbred horse urine after oral administration. The plausible structures of the detected metabolites were postulated using liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry. Under the experimental condition 13 metabolites (7 phase I, 1 phase II, and 5 conjugates of phase I metabolism) were positively detected (M1-M13). The major phase I metabolites identified were formed by hydroxylation. Dealkylated and hydrolyzed phase I metabolites were also observed in this study. In phase II, a glucuronic acid conjugate of roxadustat was detected as the major metabolite. The sulfonic acid conjugates were observed to be formed from phase I metabolites. The characterized in vivo metabolites can potentially serve as target analytes for doping control analysis; hence, the result is an important tool for assessing its use and abuse in competitive sport.
