We developed a sensitive and specific liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometric (HPLC-ESI-MS) assay for the simultaneous determination of reduced and oxidized glutathione (GSH and GSSG) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Following derivatization with N-ethylmaleimide to prevent GSH auto-oxidation, addition of thiosalicylic acid as internal standard, and protein precipitation with cold acetonitrile, the samples were injected into a diol column, eluted with acetonitrile-1% aqueous acetic acid (25:75) and detected by the ESI-MS system. The optimized method exhibited a good detection limit for both analytes (0.01 and 0.05 muM for GSH and GSSG, respectively). Good linearity was reached in the 0.01-20 muM range for GSH and 0.05-20 muM for GSSG. The mean recoveries of GSH and GSSG were 98.5-100.6% and 105.8-111.5%, respectively. The run-to-run repeatability for retention time and peak area was RSD% 0.06 and 1.75 for GSH and 0.18 and 2.50 for GSSG. The optimized method was applied to GSH and GSSG assay in PBMC analyzing 20 healthy individuals. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
