The effect of Saccharomycopsis fibuligera fermentation on the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of Kerria japonica (K. japonica) extracts was studied. First, the antioxidant activity of the fermented extract was measured using the 2,2-diphenyl1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2’-azinobis (3-ethylbenzthiazoline 6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) methods. Also, the quantification of polyphenols and flavonoids, which are representative components with antioxidant activity, was performed. The results of the DPPH and ABTS assays showed an increase in the antioxidant activity by 14.39% and 21.74%, respectively, due to fermentation. The polyphenol concentration increased by 10.5%, and the flavonoid concentration increased by 100.0%. In the cell experiment, a cytotoxicity test and a nitric oxide (NO) production inhibitory test were performed using RAW 264.7 cells. Both the control group and the fermentation group showed no cytotoxicity. In the NO production inhibition experiment, the fermentation group showed a 6.85% higher inhibition of NO production compared to the control group. When the inhibitory effects of the extracts on inflammatory cytokine production were assessed, the fermentation group showed 12.4% and 23.5% higher inhibition of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 production, respectively, compared to the control group. In conclusion, due to its potential for inhibiting NO and inflammatory cytokine production, fermented K. japonica extracts could be considered a source of anti-inflammatory compounds.
