Objective: To investigate the effects of baicalin on expression of inducible nitric oxide syn-thase (iNOS) in fibroblasts and its mechanisms in treating psoriasis. Methods: Fibroblasts cultured in vitro were stimulated with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interferon-γ(IFN-γ), interleukin-8 (IL-8) in different groups. iNOS was detected by western blot and immunocytochemistry assay, and in addition, the effects of baicalin on its expression were investigated. Results: Fibroblasts did not express iNOS without cytokine stimulation. When treated for 24 h with 1.0×106 U/LTNF-α, 0.2×106U/L IFN-γ, 0.2×106 pg/L IL-8 alone or in combinations indicated, fibroblasts produced iNOS when stimulated by TNF-α alone while neither IFN-γ nor IL-8 could induce the production of iNOS. The combination of TNF-α and IL-8 induced a strong expression of iNOS, the combined exposure of three kinds of cytokines showed an even stronger effects. The strongly stained area was in the cytoplasm near the nuclei. Expression of
