Abstract
Valproic acid(VPA) is a classic drug that used to treat epilepsy in monotherapy or combination with other anticonvulsant drugs such as lamotrigine (LTG). Although it was reported that VPA could increase lamotrigine trough concentration in clinical practice, there was no report about the effect of LTG on the trough concentration of VPA and its main metabolites, such as 4-ene-VPA, 3-OH-VPA, 4-OH-VPA, 3-keto-VPA, 2 PGA which are related to the therapeutic and toxic effects of VPA. In this study, a simple and rapid method for the simultaneous determination of VPA and its five metabolites in human plasma using HPLC-MS/MS was developed for the first time. Benzoic acid was used as an internal standard (IS). Separation was performed on a Hypersil GOLD C-18 column by isocratic elution using acetonitrile: 10 mM ammonium acetate solution (90:10, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer operating in the negative ion-switching, electron spray ionization mode with selection reaction monitoring (SRM) was employed to determine transitions of m/z 143.183 -> 143.183, 157.033 -> 113.165, 173.017 -> 129.074, 159.058 -> 101.082, 140.870 -> 140. 870, 159.049 -> 123.076, 121.035 -> 77.136 for VPA, 2-PGA, 3-keto-VPA, 3-OH-VPA,4-ene-WA, 4-OH-WA and IS, respectively. The method also afforded satisfactory results in terms of sensitivity, specificity, precision (intra- and inter-batch), accuracy, recovery, matrix effect and stability. This method was successfully applied to evaluate the effect of LTG on the trough concentration of VPA, 2-PGA, 3-keto-VPA, 3-OH-VPA, 4-ene-VPA, 4-OH-VPA in Chinese epilepsy patients. The result showed that there was no significant difference in the concentration of VPA and its five metabolites between patients in VPA monotherapy and patients in therapy combining VPA with LTG.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
