Abstract
A robust method using HPLC-UV was developed to improve the accuracy and repeatability of a quantitative method to detect 5 nucleotides (cytidine-monophosphate, uridine monophosphate, adenosine monophosphate, guanine monophosphate, and inosine monophosphate) in infant formulas. The results showed that efficient separation could not be achieved without strict conditions. The proposed method displayed a strong linear relationship (R2 > 0.9999) of single nucleotide in infant formula milk powder in the range of 10 to 1,000 mg/kg, a steady recovery (80.0% ∼110.0%) with relative standard deviation from 0.5% to 3.5%, under strict conditions of hydrophilic C18 column with di-isopropyl at 62.5 ± 2.5°C (± standard deviation), 0.65 ± 0.1 mg/mL tetrabutylammonium bisulfate, and mobile phase of pH of 2.75 ± 0.02. By applying this method on a series of milk products in the Chinese market, we found a few of them exceeded the legal limits of nucleotides.

Abstract
Background:
Cytidine Disodium Triphosphate (CTP-2Na) for injection is mainly used
for treating nervous system diseases. Currently, there are few studies focused on the separation and
identification of polar impurities in CTP-2Na for injection, which is important for ensuring drug
safety and efficacy.
Objective:
The study aimed to establish an HPLC-Q/TOF method for the separation and identification of polar impurities in CTP-2Na for injection.
Methods:
Chromatographic separation was achieved on a Waters Atlantis T3 column using 5 mM
aqueous ammonium acetate solution as the mobile phase in an isocratic elution mode. A postcolumn compensation technology was used to improve the ionization efficiency of impurities in the
spray chamber.
Results:
Three polar impurities (disodium cytidine tetraphosphate, disodium cytidine diphosphate,
disodium cytidine monophosphate) were detected in CTP-2Na for injection. The former one is
probably the overreaction product during the production of CTP-2Na, the latter two were reported
as degradation products. The fragmentation patterns of cytidine phosphate compounds in negative
ion mode are summarized.
Conclusion:
This study provides a good reference for the separation and identification of polar impurities in nucleotide drugs.

Abstract
Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) is able to separate from polar to highly polar solutes, using similar eluents to those in the reversed-phase mode (RPLC) and a polar stationary phase, where water is adsorbed onto its surface. It is widely accepted that multiple modes of interaction take place in the HILIC environment, which can be far more complex than the interactions in an RPLC column. The behaviour in HILIC should be adequately modelled to predict the retention with optimisation purposes and improve the understanding on retention mechanisms, as is the case for RPLC. In this work, the prediction performance of several retention models is studied for seven HILIC columns (underivatised silica, and silica containing diol, amino and sulfobetaine functional groups, together with three columns recently manufactured with neutral, anionic, and cationic character), using uracil and six polar nucleosides (adenosine, cytidine, guanosine, thymidine, uridine, and xanthosine) as probe compounds. The results in HILIC are compared with those that were offered by the elution of several polar sulphonamides and diuretics analysed with two C18 columns (Chromolith Speed ROD and Zorbax Eclipse XDB). It is shown that eight retention models, which only consider partitioning or both partitioning and adsorption, give similar good accuracy in predictions for both HILIC and RPLC columns. However, the study on the elution strength behaviour, at varying mobile phase composition, reveals similarities (or differences) between RPLC and HILIC columns of diverse nature. The particular behaviour for the HILIC and RPLC columns was also revealed when the retention, in both modes, was fitted to a model that describes the change in the elution strength with the modifier concentration.

Abstract
Nucleotides, which are important low-molecular-weight compounds present in organisms, are precursors of nucleic acids and participate in various regulatory and metabolic functions. Sensitive and valid methods for monitoring and determining nucleotides and nucleosides in different samples are urgently required. Due to the presence of numerous endogenous interferences in complex matrices and the high polarity of the molecules of the phosphate moiety, the determination of nucleotide content is challenging. This review summarizes the pretreatment and analysis methods of nucleotides in different samples. Advanced pretreatment methods, including different microextraction methods, solid-phase extraction based on novel materials, QuEChERS, are clearly displayed, and continuous progress which has been made in LC, LC-MS/MS and capillary electrophoresis methods are discussed. Moreover, the strengths and weaknesses of different methods are discussed and compared. Highlight:Advanced pretreatment and detection methods of nucleotides were critically reviewed.Microextraction technology was one of the trends of nucleotides pretreatment in the future.Applications of novel materials and supercritical fluid were highlighted.The evolution and advance of HRMS analyzers were in detailed.

Abstract
The metabolome presence of nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and related phosphorylated metabolites has been examined for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although reversed-phase liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has been used for the determination of these analytes, they were limited in chromatographic signal intensity and reproducibility owing to significant peak tailing caused by complexing with metallic cations and phosphate groups. In this work, we applied LC-MS/MS analysis with a metal-free column for comprehensive quantification of 40 analytes regarding to purine and pyrimidine metabolism in postmortem cerebrospinal fluid (pCSF) from AD patients. For the analytical column, an InertSustain AQ-C18 metal-free PEEK column was used. MS detection was by electrospray positive ionization. The metal-free column allowed for sharp peak detection of highly polar metabolites within a running time of 17 min. In validation, the limits of detection (LOD), the limit of quantitation (LOQ) and recovery value using a pooled pCSF sample are 1-500 nM, 0.5-250 nM and a range of 53.1-144.0% (RSD ranged from 0.4 to 19.6%). The developed LC-MS/MS method utilizing a metal-free column provides an accurate quantification of some metabolites regarding purine and pyrimidine metabolism in pCSF samples obtained from AD patients.

Abstract
The chromatographic behavior of new biogenic purine nucleosides in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography was examined on three different stationary phases, namely bare silica, and amide- and cyclofructan-based stationary phases. The effects of buffer concentration, pH and acetonitrile-to-aqueous-part ratio in the mobile phase on retention and peak shape were assessed. The retention coefficients and peak symmetry values substantially differed with respect to analytes´ structures, stationary phase properties and mobile phase composition. The bare silica column was unsuitable for these compounds under the chromatographic conditions tested due to very broad and asymmetrical peaks. Furthermore, the cyclofructan-based stationary phase provided almost Gaussian peak shapes of all deazapurine nucleosides under most conditions tested. Therefore, the cyclofructan-based stationary phase is the most suitable choice for the chromatographic analysis of nucleosides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cordyceps cicadae, an entomogenous fungus has been used as a dietary therapeutic in traditional Chinese medicine for several millennia, in the form of powders and decoction. However, wild C. cicadae is notably scarce. To date, there is still a lack of comprehensive and deep studies on the biological characteristics, chemical profiles and antineoplastic mechanisms of C. cicadae, especially its spores. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to identify wild C. cicadae using rDNA-ITS sequences. Active constituents and volatile ingredients of C. cicadae sporoderm-broken spore powders (CCBSP) were elucidated using UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS and GC-MS, respectively. The underlying anti-neoplastic mechanisms of CCBSP were further investigated in A549 lung carcinoma cells. RESULTS Molecular phylogenetic analysis of nuclear rDNA sequences indicated that wild C. cicadae belonged to Paecilomyces cicadae. Eight primary compounds from CCBSP were identified by MS fragmentation ions including nucleosides, cordycepic acid, cordycepin, beauvericin and myriocin. In total, forty-nine volatile components representing 99.56% of CCBSP were clearly identified. CCBSP exhibited antiproliferative effects on A549 cells with IC50 value of 125.54 ± 2.71 µg/ml, blocking the cell cycle in the G2/M phase. The nuclear morphology exhibited typical characteristics of apoptosis by Hoechst fluorescent stain. AnnexinV-FITC/PI staining revealed that the number of apoptotic cells increased after CCBSP treatment. Furthermore, immunofluorescence experiments indicated that CCBSP lowered the expressions of β-catenin and N-cadherin, which was accompanied by repressed Wnt/β-catenin signalling and activation of caspase-mediated apoptosis pathways. CONCLUSIONS rDNA-ITS sequencing enabled molecular identification of wild C. cicadae. Importantly, these findings provide the first evidence regarding the full-scale bioactive components and antineoplastic properties of CCBSP. These data highlight the significance of C. cicadae as a potential antineoplastic agent.

Abstract
The present work describes a method for the simultaneous determination of unmodified nucleosides and nucleotide mono-, di- and tri-phosphates by capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass spectrometry (CE-MS). The use of hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) in the separation medium, and as an additive to the sheath liquid of the electrospray interface (ESI), generated a highly efficient and sensitive method. Instrumental limits of detection in the range of 14-53ngmL-1 for nucleosides and 7-23, 20-49 and 64-124ngmL-1 for nucleotide mono-, di-, and tri-phosphates, respectively, were found. Sample treatment involved diluting an aliquot of baby food with ultra-high quality water and applying centrifugation-assisted ultrafiltration (CUF). The proposed method was validated and used to analyse a variety of baby food samples (16 in total) such as fish, meat, fruits, and baby dairy desserts that may endogenously contain these analytes.

Abstract
Purine nucleoside analogues are widely used in the treatment of haematological malignancies, and their biological activity is dependent on the intracellular accumulation of their triphosphorylated metabolites. In this context, we developed and validated a liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method to study the formation of 5'-triphosphorylated derivatives of cladribine, fludarabine, clofarabine and 2'-deoxyadenosine in human cancer cells. Br-ATP was used as internal standard. Separation was achieved on a hypercarb column. Analytes were eluted with a mixture of hexylamine (5 mM), DEA (0.4%, v/v, pH 10.5) and acetonitrile, in a gradient mode at a flow rate of 0.3mLmin-1. Multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) and electrospray ionization in negative mode (ESI-) were used for detection. The application of this method to the quantification of these phosphorylated cytotoxic compounds in a human follicular lymphoma cell line, showed that it was suitable for the study of relevant biological samples.
