Three new homoisoflavonoids (1−3) were isolated from the roots of Ophiopogon japonicus (Liliaceae). The structures of new metabolites were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analyses including 2D NMR. The anti-inflammatory activities of new compounds (1−3) were investigated by their effects on the release of the inflammatory chemokine eotaxin, stimulated by IL-4 and the combination of IL-4 and TNF-α in BEAS-2B cells, which mimics the in vivo conditions in bronchial allergic asthma.
