The methanolic extract from the flowers of Angelica furcijuga KITAGAWA was found to inhibit nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharide-activated mouse peritoneal macrophages. From the methanolic extract, two new glycosides, hyuganosides IV and V, were isolated together with 28 known constituents. The structures of the new constituents were determined on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence. Furthermore, the inhibitory effects of 11 coumarin constituents on nitric oxide production were examined. Among them, 3′-angeloyl-cis-khellactone (IC50=82 μM), (S)-(−)-oxypeucedanin (57 μM), imperatorin (60 μM), isoepoxypteryxin (53 μM), and isopteryxin (8.8 μM) showed inhibitory activity.
