1. Chlorogenic acids (CGAs), one kind of major bioactive constituents isolated from Flos Lonicerae Japonicae, possess many biological activities, such as antibacterial, antioxidant, and antiviral activities. In this study, we established an efficient strategy using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with linear ion trap-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS) to profile the in vivo metabolic fate of CGAs in rat urine and plasma.

2. The extract from Flos Lonicerae Japonicae was orally administrated to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats at a dose of 1000?mg/kg body weight. Then, a combination of various post-acquisition data mining methods, including high-resolution extracted ion chromatogram (HREIC) and multiple mass defect filters (MMDFs), and diagnostic product ions (DPIs), were adopted to characterize the known and unknown CGA metabolites in SD rats.

3. As a result, a total of 68 CGA metabolites were unambiguously or tentatively screened and characterized. These metabolites, including 18 prototype compounds and 50 metabolites, were deduced to be yielded via methylation, hydrogenation, demethylation, dehydration, sulfate conjugation, glucuronide conjugation, glycosylation conjugation, and their composite reactions, which mainly occurred to caffeoylquinic acids, dicaffeoylquinic acids, p-coumaroylquinic acids, and feruloylquinic acids.

4. In conclusion, this study profiled CGA metabolites, which are useful in understanding the in vivo metabolic fate, effective forms, and pharmacological and toxic actions of CGAs.

... Materials and chemicals The four reference standards–neochlorogenic acid (3-CQA),
cryptochlorogenic acid (4-CQA), chlorogenic acid (5-CQA), and 1,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid
(1,5-DiCQA) – were purchased from Chengdu Biopurify Phytochemicals Ltd. (Sichuan, China). ...
