Abstract

Two hydroxy taraxastane-type triterpenes, faradiol and heliantriol C, have been isolated from the ligulate flowers of Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat. var. sinense Makino fa. esculentum Makino, the edible Chrysanthemum. These compounds showed strong inhibitory activity against 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-aetate (TPA)-induced inflammation in mice. At 0.2 μmol/mouse, these compounds markedly inhibited the promoting effect of TPA (1 μg/mouse) on skin tumor formation followed by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (50 μg/mouse).
