Essential oil of the root of Angelica dahurica Benth et Hook(Umbelliferae) was investigated. Essential oil was obtained from the dried roots by steam distillation and fractionated by column chromatography. Each isolate or fraction was identified by GC, GC-MS and spectral analysis. It was found to contain eleven monoterpenes such as ${\alpha}-pinene(4.74%),\;campben, {\beta}-pinene,\;myrcene,\;{\alpha}-phellandrene,\;{\delta}-3-carene(39.4%),\;{\alpha}-terpinene,\;{\rho}-cymene,\;{\beta}-phellandrene,\;{\alpha}-terpinene,\;terpinolene\;and\;also\;found\;to\;contain\;4-vinylguaiacol,\;iso-elemicin,\;{\beta}-elemene$, caryophyllene, ligustilide, osthol and seven tentatively identified sesquiterpenes.

A new method for quantitative determination of byakangelicin in Angelicae dahuricae Radix by high performance liquid chromatography was established. A reversed-phase system with a ${\mu}Bondapak$ $C_{18}$ column using THF : dioxane : MeOH : HAc : 5% $H_3PO_4$ : $H_2O$=72.5 : 62.5 : 25 : 10 : 1 : 329 as a mobile phase was developed. Byakangelicin together with ter-O-byakangelicin and oxypeucedanin methanolate, and isooxypeucedanin as an internal reference were detected at 350 nm and the analysis was successfully carried out within 30 min.

Anglicae dahuricae Radix (ADR), the dried roots of Angelica Dahurica Benth et Hook (Umbelliferae), is a traditional herbal medicine used to treat colds, headache, skin diseases such as acne and possess analgesic, antipyretic and drainage effects. In the present study, the author evaluated the effect of ADR on regulation of inflammatory reaction. ADR reduced the ear-swelling responses derived from compound 48/80 in dose-dependent manner significantly. ADR inhibited the PMA plus A23187-induced productions of IL (Interleukin)-8, IL-1β, granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α from human mast cells (HMC)-1. In addition, ADR blocked PMA plus A23187-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Ⅰ suggest that ADR regulates inflammatory reaction through inhibition of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-8, IL-1β and GM-CSF.

Five species of plants (Clerodendrum trichotomum Thunb., Angelica dahurica (Fisch. ex Hoffm.) Benth. & Hook. f. ex Franch. & Sav., Caryopteris incana (Thunb. ex Houtt.) Miq., Lonicera japonica Thunb., and Parasenecio auriculatus var. matsumurana Nakai) native to the clean area of Mt. Jiri were selected. The collection period was from May to September 2021, and the five species plants were collected in their native habitats with flowers in full bloom. The collected plants were extracted with 70% EtOH, and 17 kinds of polyphenol components were analyzed. Next, flowers, leaves, stems, and roots were separated from plants, extracted with 70% EtOH for each part and experiments were conducted on DPPH, ABTS, total polyphenols, and total flavonoids. The results are as follows. 1. It was found that there were a total of 8 kinds of polyphenols contained in 5 species of plants that are native to Mt. Jiri. Among the polyphenol components, chlorogenic acid was contained in 4 species of plants, and caffeic acid was contained in 2 species of plants. 2. As a result, the DPPH radical scavenging activity was the best in the stem of P. auriculata and the C. trichotomum was good regardless of the specific part. It was found that the activity-scavenging activity was good in the flowers of A. dahurica and the leaves of L. japonica. 3. The highest ABTS radical scavenging activity was C. trichotomum Thunb., whose EC₅₀ value was 38.73~66.28ppm. Next, the leaves and stems of L. japonica Thunb., A. dahurica and P. auriculata, and the leaves and stems of C. incana appeared in that order. 4. The highest total polyphenol content was 154.83mg GAE/g in the leaves of C. trichotomum, followed by about 130mg GAE/g in the flowers of C. trichotomum and P. auriculata. The lowest was 26.27mg GAE/g in the stems of A. dahurica.
