Omega-hydroxyemodin a naturally occurring anthraquinone derivative isolated from Polygoni cuspidati radix. It has anti-bacterial and phytoestrogen activity. Omega-hydroxyemodin demonstrated topoisomerases I and II inhibition activity. Omega-hydroxyemodin significantly attenuated the DNA binding of activator protein (AP)-1 that regulates COX-2 expression through the reduction of the phosphorylation of c-Jun. Moreover, inhibition of PGD2 generation by Omega-hydroxyemodin was accompanied by a decrease in phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2α. Taken together, these data suggest that Omega-hydroxyemodin represents a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. Omega-hydroxyemodin was efficacious in a mouse model of S. aureus skin and soft tissue infections.
