Although several studies on the TMF have been reported, the information about the metabolism of TMF and the structures of TMF metabolites is still not yet clear. In this study, an isotope-labeling method was developed for the identification of TMF metabolites. Three isotope-labeled TMFs (5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxy[3'-D(3)]flavone, 5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxy[4'-D(3)]flavone, and 5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxy[5,4'-D(6)]flavone) were synthesized and administered to rats. The urine samples were collected, and the main metabolites were monitored by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry. Five TMF metabolites were unambiguously identified as 3'-hydroxy-5,7,4'-trimethoxyflavone, 7-hydroxy-5,3',4'-trimethoxyflavone sulfate, 7-hydroxy-5,3',4'-trimethoxyflavone, 4'-hydroxy-5,7,3'-trimethoxyflavone, and 5-hydroxy-7,3',4'-trimethoxyflavone. |
