Pteryxin is a coumarin compound naturally occurring in the roots of Radix Peucedani, a commonly used as traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of certain respiratory diseases and hypertension. An UPLC-MS/MS method was established to quantify pteryxin in mouse plasma and tissue homogenates. Isoimperatorin was used as internal standard (IS). The method was based on protein precipitation with methanol for sample preparation. Pteryxin and IS were separated using a UPLC™ BEH C18 column and eluted with a mobile phase consisting of methanol and water (70:30, v/v) at a flow-rate of 0.2 mL/min. MS/MS detection was carried out by monitoring the fragmentation of m/z 409.3-287.2 for pteryxin and m/z 271.3-185.2 for IS on a triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer. The total run time was only 6 min. The results showed that it had good linearity over a wide concentration range (r > 0.999), and pteryxin was rapidly distributed and then eliminated from mouse plasma (t(½) =1.463 h). The major distribution tissues of pteryxin in mice were liver, and pteryxin was enabled to cross the blood-brain barrier owing to its low polarity. There was no long-term accumulation of pteryxin in mouse tissues.
