Abstract
The effect of Radix Scutellariae treated on type 2 diabetic rats has been investigated by a liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) based urinary quantitative approach. In this research, multiple reactions monitoring mode of MS/MS in LC–MS/MS analysis was used to quantitatively analyze the concentrations of 7 endogenous compounds in urine of normal control group, type 2 diabetic model group and Radix Scutellariae-treated group, and multivariate statistical analysis was utilized for MS data processing. The above-mentioned three groups can be distinguished via pattern recognition. The obtained results indicated that Radix Scutellariae affect the urinary metabolic profiling of type 2 diabetic rats on the polyol pathway, protein glycation reaction and amino acids metabolism pathway. According to these results, Radix Scutellariae should have the pharmacological effect on preventing or delaying the onset and progression of diabetes and its complications.
