Popis: The major labdanes in the oleogum resin of Araucaria heterophylla (Salisb.) Franco, 13-epi-cupressic acid (1) and acetyl-13-epi-cupressic acid (2) were used to prepare seven new (3–9), along with one known (10) derivatives. RAW264.7 cells were used to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of the derivatives (1–10) via measuring the level of COX-2 expression and IL-6. Pre-treated RAW264.7 cells with 1–10 (except for derivative 7) at 25 µM for 24h exhibited downregulation of COX-2 expression in response to LPS stimulation. Moreover, pre-treatment with compounds 1, 2, or 3 significantly attenuated the LPS-stimulated IL-6 level in RAW264.7 cells (p
