Caffeine and its metabolic products play an important role in clinical applications. An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF MS/MS) method was applied to systemically study the caffeine metabolism in liver microsomes of rats and mice, and comprehensively evaluate caffeine metabolites in vitro and metabolism differences between species. The caffeine metabolites and metabolism differences between species in liver microsomes of rats and mice were analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS high resolution mass spectrometry system and metabolitepolite software. The results showed that in addition to the demethylated and oxidized products in previous analysis, methylated, double oxidized, dehydrated and decarbonylated metabolites were also found in caffeine metabolism in liver microsomes of rats and mice, with significant difference in metabolism in vitro between rats and mice. The demethylated metabolite M2(C7H8N4O2) and decarbonylated metabolite M6(C7H10N4) in metabolism in vitro of mice were not found in rats, and the in vitro metabolite M7(C8H12N4O5) in rats were not found in mice. There was significant species difference in caffeine metabolism in vitro between rats and mice, providing important reference value for the further metabolism study and safety evaluation of caffeine.

D002110 Caffeine A methylxanthine naturally occurring in some beverages and also used as a pharmacological agent. Caffeine's most notable pharmacological effect is as a central nervous system stimulant, increasing alertness and producing agitation. It also relaxes SMOOTH MUSCLE, stimulates CARDIAC MUSCLE, stimulates DIURESIS, and appears to be useful in the treatment of some types of headache. Several cellular actions of caffeine have been observed, but it is not entirely clear how each contributes to its pharmacological profile. Among the most important are inhibition of cyclic nucleotide PHOSPHODIESTERASES, antagonism of ADENOSINE RECEPTORS, and modulation of intracellular calcium handling. 1,3,7-Trimethylxanthine,Caffedrine,Coffeinum N,Coffeinum Purrum,Dexitac,Durvitan,No Doz,Percoffedrinol N,Percutaféine,Quick-Pep,Vivarin,Quick Pep,QuickPep

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.

D053719 Tandem Mass Spectrometry A mass spectrometry technique using two (MS/MS) or more mass analyzers. With two in tandem, the precursor ions are mass-selected by a first mass analyzer, and focused into a collision region where they are then fragmented into product ions which are then characterized by a second mass analyzer. A variety of techniques are used to separate the compounds, ionize them, and introduce them to the first mass analyzer. For example, for in GC-MS/MS, GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY-MASS SPECTROMETRY is involved in separating relatively small compounds by GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY prior to injecting them into an ionization chamber for the mass selection.
