Objective: One of the measures used to prevent malaria is the management of breeding sites. For preventive and ecologically profitable control, the use of bio-larvicides made from active plant extracts would be an asset for the control of malaria vectors, in particular Anopheles gambiae. Advances in pharmacognosy have revealed the benefits of several phytochemicals with very rich and varied therapeutic effects. Among the latter, oleanolic acid (OA) is quite remarkable because of its various and multiple properties, much of which is demonstrated with the leaves of Launaea taraxacifolia. Methods: After a liquid-liquid fractionation with different organic solvents of the hydro-methanolic extract of Launaea taraxacifolia, we obtained three fractions named Fhex (hexane fraction), FDCM (dichloromethane fraction) and FHM (hydro-methanolic fraction) which were tested on 3rd instar Anopheles gambiae larvae. Results: Fhex proved to be the most active with LC50 of 120.11 ppm and 69.50 ppm respectively in 24 and 48 hours of contact. We then developed a new method of Ultra-Violet High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC / UV) method and determined the quantity of oleanolic acid in the Fhex and FDCM fractions to be respectively 0.46% and 0.23% . Conclusion: Launaea taraxacifolia has a larvicidal potential due to the presence of oleanolic acid whose inhibitory effect against Anopheles gambiae larvae.

The inhibitory effect of new chemical entities on rat liver P450 marker activities was investigated in a functional approach towards drug development. Treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) and chemoprevention using salicylic acid has gained a lot of attention, mainly in the prevention of the onset of colon cancer. Thus, an in vitro inhibitory effect of salicylic acid on rat CYP2C11 activity was examined by using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). High performance liquid chromatography analysis of a CYP2C11 assay was developed on a reversed phase C18 column (SUPELCO 25 cm × 4.6 mm × 5 µm) at 243 nm using 32% phosphate buffer (pH 3.36) and 68% methanol as a mobile phase. The CYP2C11 assay showed good linearity for all components (R2 > 0.999). Substrates and metabolites were found to be stable for up to 72 hours. Additionally, the method demonstrated good reproducibility, intra- and inter-day precision (<15%), acceptable recovery and accuracy (80%–120%), and low detection (1.3501 µM and 3.2757 µM) and quantitation limit values (4.914 µM and 9.927 µM) for 16α-hydroxytestosterone and testosterone, respectively. Salicylic acid acts reversibly as a noncompetitive (weak) inhibitor with Ki = 84.582 ± 2.67 µM (concentration of inhibitor to cause 50% inhibition of original enzyme activity (IC50) = 82.70 ± 2.67 µM) for CYP2C11 enzyme activity. This indicates a low potential to cause toxicity and drug–drug interactions.

Owing to the side effects of current drugs for treating atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic disease in the skin, traditional herbal medicine is receiving much attention as an alternative treatment. Asarum sieboldii has traditionally been used to treat colds, fevers, headaches, coughs, neuralgia, chronic bronchitis, asthma, and allergies. In this study, 6 compounds (echinacoside, vanillic acid, kakuol, methyl eugenol, sesamin, and asarinin) in A. sieboldii were analyzed simultaneously using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the proposed analytical method was validated. In addition, the inhibitory effects of the A. sieboldii extract and the 6 analyzed compounds on the expression of chemokine were evaluated in HaCaT cells. The HPLC method showed high linearity, with a correlation coefficient of ≥0.9999. The limits of detection for the 6 compounds ranged from 0.00 to 0.02 µg/mL, and the limits of quantification ranged from 0.01 to 0.05 µg/mL. The intraday and interday precisions were 0.15%-1.90%; the accuracy was 97.36%-103.23%, and the recoveries of the 6 compounds were 97.45%-103.93%. The content of each compound in A. sieboldii, as determined using the corresponding calibration curve, was in the range of 0.380-12.062 mg/g. This optimized simultaneous quantification method will be suitable for improving the quality control of A. sieboldii. Moreover, the 6 compounds in A. sieboldii showed an inhibitory effect on the production of chemokines, which suggests that A. sieboldii has an antiallergic effect.

Inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP) alters the pharmacokinetic parameters of the drug and causes drug–drug interactions. Salicylic acid been used for the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) and chemoprevention in recent decades. Thus, the aim of this study was to examine the in vitro inhibitory effect of salicylic acid on CYP2E1 activity in rat liver microsomes (RLMs) using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). High-performance liquid chromatography analysis of a CYP2E1 assay was developed on a reversed phase C18 column (SUPELCO 25 cm × 4.6 mm × 5 µm) at 282 nm using 60% H2O, 25% acetonitrile, and 15% methanol as mobile phase. The CYP2E1 assay showed a good linearity (R2 > 0.999), good reproducibility, intra- and inter-day precision (<15%), acceptable recovery and accuracy (80–120%), and low detection (4.972 µM and 1.997 µM) and quantitation limit values (15.068 µM and 6.052 µM), for chlorzoxazone and 6-hydroxychlorzoxazone, respectively. Salicylic acid acts as a mixed inhibitor (competitive and non-competitive inhibition), with Ki (inhibition constant) = 83.56 ± 2.730 µM and concentration of inhibitor causing 50% inhibition of original enzyme activity (IC50) exceeding 100 µM (IC50 = 167.12 ± 5.460 µM) for CYP2E1 enzyme activity. Salicylic acid in rats would have both low and high potential to cause toxicity and drug interactions with other drugs that are substrates for CYP2E1.

Objective: The objective of the present study is to develop a stability-indicating reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for qualitative and quantitative determination of Eptifibatide and its impurities in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Methods: The chromatographic separation was carried on Phenomenex Luna C18 column (250 mm×4.6 mm; 5µ id) as stationary phase, methanol and phosphate buffer at pH 6.4 in the ratio of 65:45 (v/v) as mobile phase at flow rate of 1.0 ml/min, Ultra Violet (UV) detection was carried at the wavelength of 236 nm and the analysis was completed with a run time of 15 min. Results: In the developed conditions, the retention time of Eptifibatide and its impurities 1 and 2 were found to be 3.35, 4.93 and 8.18 min, respectively. The method was validated for system suitability, range of analysis, precision, specificity, stability and robustness. Spiked recovery at 50%, 100% and 150% was carried for both standard and impurities and the acceptable % recovery of 98-102 was observed for Eptifibatide and both impurities studied and the % Relative standard deviation (RSD) in each spiked level was found to be less than 2. Stability tests were done through the exposure of the analyte solution to five different stress conditions i. e expose to 1N Hydrochloric acid (HCl), 1 N Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), 3% Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), 80 °C temperature to UV radiation. In all the degradation conditions, standard drug Eptifibatide was detected along with both the impurities studied and the degradation products were successfully separated. In the formulation analysis, there is no other chromatographic detection of other impurities and formulation excipients. Conclusion: The developed method was found to be suitable for the quantification of Eptifibatide and can separate and analyse impurities 1 and 2.
