RESUMO
Highly sensitive and convenient analysis of intracellular cationic drugs has been achieved by applying matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALD-MS). Tetraphenylphosphonium cation was readily identified and quantified (using methyltriphenylphosphonium cation as an internal standard) at subpicomole levels in crude lysate from < 4 x 10(3) FaDu human hypopharyngeal carcinoma cells. A quantitative MALD-MS time course for tetraphenylphosphonium cation accumulation into FaDu cells was comparable to a time course using scintillation counting with tritiated tetraphenylphosphonium. MALD-MS was also capable of demonstrating the reduced accumulation of the cationic drug rhodamine-123 by DoxR MCF7, a multiply drug-resistant human breast adenocarcinoma cell line, relative to the nonresistant parent line MCF7. In addition, MALD-MS was used to follow a chemical reaction inside intact FaDu cells: the formation of a hydrazone (II-51) from benzaldehyde and an acylhydrazide, 5-[tris(4-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphonio]pentanoyl hydrazide (II-25). These results suggest that MALD-MS may provide a rapid and practical alternative to existing methods for the analysis of cationic drugs, toxins, and their metabolites in cells and tissues.
