Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo compare the pharmacological effect of the main coumarin constituents of Peucedanum praeruptorum from Jiangxi and He'nan.
METHODThe constituents were isolated by column chromatography on silica gel and ODS and identified by NMR and MS spectroscopic methods. The antitussive, expectorant and anti-inflammatory effects of main coumarin constituents of P. praeruptorum observed in the present study.
RESULTThe main constituents of P. praeruptorum from both Jiangxi and He'nan showed the significant antitussive and anti-inflammatory effects without obviously expectorant effect.
CONCLUSIONThe pharmacological effects of the main coumarin constituents of Qian-hu from Jiangxi and He'nan are similar.
