However, there is no established scientific study on antipsoriatic activity of pomegranate fruit rind. The aim of the study is to evaluate the anti-psoriatic activity of the isolated compounds and the extract from the fruit rind of &lt;em&gt;P. granatum.&lt;/em&gt; In our previous study, the isolated compounds were evaluated for antioxidant potential. In continuation to the previous investigation, the present study is taken up to evaluate the extract and compounds for &lt;em&gt;in vitro&lt;/em&gt; anti-psoriatic activity. &lt;strong&gt;Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Chromatographic techniques were employed to isolate the compounds from the aqueous acetone extract and&lt;em&gt; in vitro &lt;/em&gt;anti-psoriatic activity was determined by thymidine phosphorylase inhibition assay. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;From previous phytochemical investigation, three compounds were identified as Punicalagin, 2,3(&lt;em&gt;S&lt;/em&gt;)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-D-glucose and Punicalin. In the present study, the extract and the compounds were evaluated for anti-psoriatic activity. The results reveal that the isolated three compounds showed inhibitory activity of 89% to 95% against thymidine phosphorylase. Aqueous acetone extract also exhibited 87% inhibition. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Punica granatum&lt;/em&gt; is an ideal plant for further investigation to prove its anti-psoriatic activity.&lt;/p&gt;
