Euphorbia neriifolia (Indian Spurge Tree): A Plant of Multiple Biological and Pharmacological Activities

Although India has a well-established and growing economy surrounding synthetic drug chemistry with an antibiotic base, large part of the population, especially in forested villages tribal belts, is relying solely on plant-derived drugs. This due to lower number side effects, low chances resistance development against pathogenic microorganisms, as well diversity affordability such In Indian subcontinents, Euphorbia neriifolia Linn. (EN) one valuable plants from big family Euphorbiaceae, which usually found rocky hilly areas. E. was be useful curing tumors, abdominal swelling, bronchial infection, hydrophobia, earache, cough cold, asthma, leprosy, gonorrhea, spleen enlargement, leucoderma, snake bites, scorpion stings, causing appetite improvement, etc. Different vitro vivo experimental studies were performed determine antioxidant, anti-diabetic, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anti-arthritic, wound healing, anti-atherosclerosis, radioprotective, anti-anxiety, anti-convulsant, anti-psychotic, anti-thrombotic, dermal irritation, hemolytic, analgesic, anti-fertility, diuretic, anti-microbial, anti-diarrheal, anti-carcinogenic activities various parts EN. Several bioactive compounds, euphol, nerifoliol, taraxerol, euphonerins A–G, lectin, etc., isolated need investigated further for biological (cardiovascular neuronal diseases). pharmaceutical sector, selected new drugs its broad pharmacological activities. Therefore, present review, distribution, classification, morphological microscopical description, phytochemical investigation, activities, medicinal uses, harmful their treatment evaluated, different lifestyle-related diseases.
