Abstract

Mallotus philippinensis (Lam.) M Arg is a threatened plant species in the central ecoregion. It is a member of the Euphorbiaceae family. Mallotus philippinensis (Lam.) Muell. Arg. (Family: Euphorbiaceae) is a significant perennial plant utilised in traditional medicine. It is primarily prevalent in the tropical and subtropical climates globally. Despite its herbal origin, it is classified within one of the eight Sadharana rasa categories [Glands and hairs of Mallotus philippinensis (Kampillaka), Arsenic (Somala), Ammonium Chloride (Navasagara), Cowri (Kaparda), Amber (Agnijaara), Red Oxide of Mercury (Girisindoora), Cinnabar (Hingula), Litharge (Muddaarashringa)] in Rasa-shastra, the Ayurvedic study of minerals and metals. M. philippinensis is included within Virecana ghana, a group of medicinal plants or items utilised in purgation therapy in Ayurvedic medicine. Primarily, roots, fruits (including fruit powder), and leaves are utilised for therapeutic applications. The leaves possess a bitter flavour and exhibit a cooling, appetising quality. The glands and hairs of the fruit and leaves are advised for cutaneous issues. To date, research investigations have been conducted to validate and examine the pharmacological properties of M. philippinensis. This document aims to summarise the distribution, morphology, Ayurvedic and traditional applications, and scientific research about M. philippinensis. Researchers have empirically demonstrated the antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, anti-leukemic, anti-HIV, anti-inflammatory, anti-filarial, analgesic, hypnotic, antiproliferative, antifertility, purgative, anthelmintic, and antiallergic activities of various parts of M. philippinensis
