| Description: |
Cnidicin has anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory activity, it inhibits the degranulation of mast cell and the NO generation in RAW 264.7 cells(IC50 value, 7.5 microM). Cnidicin exhibits a significant inhibition on the proliferation of cultured human tumor cells such as A549 (non small cell lung), SK-OV-3 (ovary), SK-MEL-2 (melanoma), XF498 (central nervous system) and HCT-15 (colon) in vitro . |

| Phytother Res. 2007 Mar;21(3):288-90. | | Antiproliferative effect of furanocoumarins from the root of Angelica dahurica on cultured human tumor cell lines.[Pubmed: 17143927 ] | A bioassay-guided fractionation of the root extract of Angelica dahurica (Umbelliferae) led to the isolation of six furanocoumarins as active ingredients responsible for the antitumoral property.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
The hexane soluble part of the extract demonstrated a significant inhibition on the proliferation of cultured human tumor cells such as A549 (non small cell lung), SK-OV-3 (ovary), SK-MEL-2 (melanoma), XF498 (central nervous system) and HCT-15 (colon) in vitro, whereas the remaining water soluble part exhibited poor inhibition. Intensive investigation of the hexane soluble part of the extract yielded six furanocoumarins, i.e. isoimperatorin, Cnidicin, imperatorin, oxypeucedanin, byakangelicol, oxypeucedanin hydrate, all of which exhibited a significant inhibition on cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. | | Planta Med. 2001 Mar;67(2):172-4. | | Cnidicin, a coumarin, from the root of Angelica koreana, inhibits the degranulation of mast cell and the NO generation in RAW 264.7 cells.[Pubmed: 11301870] | Cnidicin (1) and five related coumarins were isolated from the root extract of Angelica koreana (Umbelliferae) as active principles responsible for the inhibitory effect on the degranulation process of cultured mast cells.
METHODS AND RESULTS:
Cnidicin (1) demonstrated a significant inhibition upon the release of beta-hexosaminidase from the cultured RBL-2H3 cells in a dose dependent manner (IC50 value, 25 microM) and upon the nitric oxide production from the activated RAW264.7 cells (IC50 value, 7.5 microM). In agreement with this, Cnidicin inhibited the expression of nitric oxide synthase in RAW264.7 cells. |
