摘要
Polygonum cuspidatum S. (PC) is frequently used as a laxative and an anticancer drug in Chinese medicine. The inhibitory effect of this herb and its component, emodin, on the direct-acting mutagenicity of 1-nitropyrene (1-NP) was examined using the Ames/microsomal test with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and the genotoxicity of 1-NP was evaluated using the SOS chromotest with E. coli PQ37. Emodin and water extracts of PC markedly decreased the mutagenicity of 1-NP in a dose-dependent manner in both assay systems. Furthermore, emodin and the extracts of PC significantly inhibited the formation of 1-NP DNA adducts in S. typhimurium TA98 in the 32P-postlabeling study. The results suggest that PC extracts and emodin act as blocking and/or suppressing agents to reduce the direct-acting mutagenicity of 1-NP.
