Abstract
Background: The fully phosphorothioate-modified oligonucleotide (OGN) nusinersen has low ionization efficiency in the negative ion mode, resulting in a low mass spectrometry response. There have been no relevant reports on developing a LC-MS method for the determination of nusinersen by optimizing mobile phase composition. Materials & methods: Mobile phase additives comprised of 15 mM triethylamine/25 mM 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol with a pH of 9.6. Nusinersen was extracted from plasma using Oasis® HLB solid-phase extraction (Waters, MA, USA). Results & conclusion: By adjusting the pH of the mobile phase to 9.6 by optimizing the type and concentration of ion-pair reagents, a high mass spectrometry response was obtained. The developed method was applied to nusinersen and met the requirements for the pharmacokinetic study of nusinersen in rabbits.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
