This study was designed to identify the effects of Polygoni cuspidati Radix(PCR) on the generation of superoxide anion radicals (${\cdot}O_2{^-}$), nitric oxide (NO), peroxynitrite ($ONOO^-$) in the renal epithelial cells of mouse(LLC-$PK_1$). The effects of PCR on the expression of inflammation-related proteins, IKK-${\alpha}$, phospho-$I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$, NF-${\kappa}B$ (p50, p65), COX-2, iNOS, IL-$1{\beta}$, VCAM-1, were examined by western blotting. For this study, the fluorescent probes, namely dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR 123), 2',7'-dichloro dihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFDA), 4,5-diaminofluorescein (DAF-2) were used. Protein expression levels of IKK-${\alpha}$, phospho-$I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$, NF-${\kappa}B$ (p50, p65), COX-2, iNOS, IL-$1{\beta}$, VCAM-1 were assayed by western blot. PCR reduced $H_2O_2$-induced cell death dose-dependently. It inhibited the generation of ${\cdot}O_2{^-}$, NO, $ONOO^-$ and $PGE^2$ in the $H_2O_2$-treated LLC-PK1 cells in vitro. PCR inhibited the espression of IKK-${\alpha}$, phospho-$I{\kappa}B-{\alpha}$, COX-2, iNOS, IL-$1{\beta}$ and VCAM-1 genes by means of decreasing the NF-${\kappa}B$ activation. These results suggest that PCR is an effective NO, ${\cdot}O_2{^-}$, $ONOO^-$ scavenger, and this substance recommended to be applied in treatment for the inflammatory process and inflammation-related disease.
