The purpose of this study is to examine the cytotoxicity of species of Angelica (Angelicae Radix; the root of Angelica gigas Nakai, A. sinensis (Oliv.) Diels, and A. acutiloba Kitag.) on HepG2 cells. The water extracts of roots of Angelica gigas (WAG), A. sinensis (WAS), and A. acutiloba (WAA) were studied for HepG2 cell viability by a modified MTT assay in the concentrations of 5, 10, 50, 100, 250, 500 ug/ml for 24, 48, 72 h. WAG and WAS did not reduced the cell viability significantly. But WAA reduced the cell viability in the concentration of 500 ug/ml for 24 h (85.45%), 48 h (75.01%). In conclusion, WAG and WAS have not the significant cytotoxicity on HepG2 cells in the suitable dose.
