Abstract
⺠The methanol extract, furanocoumarin fraction and the major coumarins of the fruits of Angelica officinalis L. were tested against cholinesterase enzyme inhibitory and antioxidant activity. ⺠Imperatorin, xanthototixn, and bergapten showed a higher and selective inhibition against BChE. ⺠The samples showed antioxidant activity from ignorable to moderate level. ⺠Molecular docking simulations of the tested coumarins into BChE confirmed the strong interactions between them.
