Qualitative and quantitative analyses of quinones in multi-origin Rubia species by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry combined with chemometrics.
Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, 2020Co-Authors: Xuejia Zhang, Zhihao Zhang, Zhe Wang, Ninghua TanAbstract:Rubia species are one of the important multi-origin phytomedicines having both economical and medicinal values in many countries. Quinones are the predominant bioactive constituents of these species. Therefore, accurate analysis of these quinones is critical to quality control, clinical, and commercial applications of Rubia species. In this study, a sensitive and efficient ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS) method in positive and negative multiple reaction monitor (+/-MRM) modes was firstly developed for the characterization of 45 quinones and the quantification of 24 quinones from Rubia plants. The chromatographic separation was achieved on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column by using a gradient elution with a mobile phase consisting of 0.1 % formic acid in water and acetonitrile. The results indicated that quinones in multi-origin Rubia samples were different, but 10 quinones existed in all samples. R. cordifolia, which is a unique official medicinal material in Chinese Pharmacopeia, contained the most number of quinones among all the Rubia species. R. podantha and R. sylvatica had the next highest number of quinones, implying that these species could be used as alternatives for R. cordifolia. Chemometric approaches were applied to evaluate the chemical relationship between the Rubia samples based on the constituent quinones. In this study, a UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS method in the MRM mode has been developed for the analysis of Rubia species-derived quinones, which not only contributes to quality control and discrimination of Rubia species, but also suggests the potential of these species in clinical and commercial applications.

systematic characterization and quantification of Rubiaceae type cyclopeptides in 20 Rubia species by ultra performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry combined with chemometrics
Journal of Chromatography A, 2018Co-Authors: Xuejia Zhang, Zhe Wang, Ninghua Tan, Yuanyuan MiaoAbstract:Abstract Rubiaceae-type cyclopeptides (RAs) are one of characteristic constituents isolated from Rubia species, which are candidates of innovative anti-tumor drugs due to their significant bioactivity. However, approaches on the systematic characterization and quantification of RAs are still not available because of low contents and complicated purification. In this study, an ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS) method was established and validated for qualitative and quantitative analysis of 14 RAs (1-14) in 20 Rubia plants from China. The separation was achieved on a Waters ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 column (50 × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) using gradient elution with a mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile and water. Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in positive mode was used to enable the selective detection of RAs from the Rubia root and rhizome extracts within 10 min. This method was proved to be specific, sensitive, precise, and accurate with the limits of detection and quantification at 0.6–11.4 ng/mL and 1.9–34.2 ng/mL, respectively, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the overall intra-day and inter-day precision less than 5.24%. Satisfactory recovery was obtained from 83.80% to 111.77%, with the RSD less than 5.32%. Totally, 67 samples were then qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by this method and 51 of them were proved to contain RAs. Thereinto, R. podantha and R. yunnanensis from Yunnan were the two most abundant species. Additionally, RAs were detected in 8 Rubia species for the first time. Then chemometric approaches were revealed to explain the relationship between samples based on their contents of RAs. This study demonstrated that the method was not only useful for RAs source discovery and chemotaxonomy of Rubia species, but also could be extended to standardization of RAs medical materials and their new drug research and development.

Cyclopeptides from Rubia schumanniana
Zhongguo Zhong yao za zhi = Zhongguo zhongyao zazhi = China journal of Chinese materia medica, 2012Co-Authors: Bin Kuang, Jun-ting Fan, Si-meng Zhao, Ninghua TanAbstract:OBJECTIVE To separate and identify cyclopeptides of tubers of Rubia schumanniana. METHOD The 70% methanol extracts from tubers of Rubia schumanniana were separated and purified by silica gel, RP-18, Sephedax LH-20 and HPLC. Their structures were identified by spectral analysis. RESULT Nine cyclopeptides were separated and identified as RA- II (1), RA-V (2), RA-VIII (3), rubiyunnanin C (4), RA-X (5), RY-II (6), RA- I (7), RA-XIII (8) and RA-XIII-OMe (9), respectively. CONCLUSION All of nine cyclopeptides were separated from R. schumanniana for the first time.
