Enantioselective analytical methods in chiral drug metabolism

手性药物代谢研究中的对映体分析方法(英文)

The chiral nature of biological systems enables their stereoselective interaction with chiral compounds. It has been well documented that the enantiomers ofa chiral drug may show differences in drug disposition especially in metabolic behavior. As a result, it is of vital importance to separate the enantiomers of a chiral drug in metabolic studies. This paper discusses enantioselective methods （include high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, capillary electrophoresis and high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry） that applied in chiral drug metabolism, using most recent examples where possible.

生物体是一个复杂的手性系统,其手性特征促使了它们与手性化合物的立体选择性相互作用。手性药物的两个对映体在吸收、分布、代谢、排泄过程中存在着动力学差异,尤其是代谢行为。因此,在手性药物代谢的研究中,同时测定对映体是极为重要的。本文通过综述近年来发表的众多文献,详细论述了在药物代谢中应用广泛的手性分析方法,包括高效液相色谱、高效液相色谱-质谱联用、气相色谱和毛细管电泳等。
