7-Demethylsuberosin (7-demethylsuberosin) is a coumarin compound isolated from Angelica gigas Nakai,and has anti-inflammatory activity,and exhibited inhibitory effects on PGE2 production with the IC50 values of 9.42 μM.

(+)-Columbianetin acetate (COLUMBIANETIN ACETATE) may be helpful in regulating mast cell-mediated allergic inflammatory responses.The absorption of (+)-Columbianetin acetate is a passive diffusion process without pH-dependent.

1. Oxypeucedanin ((+-)-Oxypeucedanin) has novel anticancer effect, mediated via induction of G2-M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human prostate carcinoma DU145 cells. 2. Oxypeucedanin is a kind of open-channel blocker of the hKv1.5 channel and it prolongs the APD; therefore, it is an excellent candidate as an antiarrhythmic drug for atrial fibrillation.
