Large wood sorrel

Oxalis obtriangulata

Oxalis obtriangulata is a plant found in South Korea, specifically identified in surveys of algific talus slope sites. While traditional uses for this plant are not documented, its methanol extract has shown anti-proliferative effects and induced cell death in pancreatic carcinoma cells through the regulation of the ERK/Src/STAT3 pathway, according to preliminary scientific findings. However, due to limited research, the broader evidence base is currently weak. No significant safety concerns or recorded drug interactions have been noted for this plant, but further studies are needed to fully understand its potential benefits and risks.
