Caper Spurge

Euphorbia lathyris

Euphorbia lathyris, commonly known as Mexican tobacco or yellow oleander, is a plant traditionally used in some folk remedies but lacks substantial documented traditional uses. Scientific evidence suggests that Euphorbia lathyris has potential therapeutic applications; salicylic acid treatment enhances diterpenoid production in suspension cultures of the plant. Additionally, ingenol ameliorates silicosis by inhibiting the PTGS2/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway both in vivo and in vitro. Network pharmacology and molecular docking analyses indicate that Euphorbia lathyris seeds may interact with multiple targets involved in cancer-related pathways, potentially treating colorectal cancer. Extracts containing L1 and L3 increase ER stress markers and inhibit cell proliferation in pancreatic cancer cells. To date, no major safety issues or reported drug interactions have been recorded for this plant.
