Four new drimane‐type sesquiterpenoid ethers of isocitric acid, named cryptoporic acids J–M, were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Cryptoporus sinensis , together with six known cryptoporic acids. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses. Among them, cryptoporic acid D showed strong inhibition against nitric oxide (NO) production in macrophages with an IC 50 of 45.8±3.6 μ M , comparable to the positive control of hydrocortisone ( IC 50 of 40.6±2.5 μ M ).
