This study was presented to the physiological activities such as metal chelating capacity, superoxide dismutase-like activity, anti-inflammation, cytotoxicity from Zanthoxylum schnifolium fruit. The values for metal chelating capacity of 1 mg/ mL of 70% EtOH and 70% MeOH extracts were 68% and 67%, respectively, it was shown that metal chelating capacity in a dose-dependent manner. The 100% EtOH and 100% MeOH extract exhibited strong superoxide dismutase-like activity. The highest SOD-like activity obtained from 100% EtOH was 51% at a concentration of 4 mg/mL. The all extracts of Zanthoxylum schnifolium fruit except H2O extract significantly decreased the concentration of LPS-induced NO in Raw 264.7 cells. The 100% EtOH, 100% MeOH and 70% EtOH extract represented the highest activity in the anti-inflammation properties in vitro. However, the 100% EtOH and 100% MeOH extracts has cytotoxicity in Raw 264.7 cells and it may affect cell viability. Conclude that 70% EtOH extract was most suitable for anti-inflammation. Our results revealed that the Zanthoxylum schnifolium fruit expected to physiological activities.
