Ten triterpenes compounds were isolated from the methanol extraction of the latex of Euphorbia resinifera by means of various chromatographic methods such as silica gel, ODS and semi-preparative HPLC, Their structures were identified by spectroscopic methods and physicochemical properties. These isolated compounds were identified as 3-hydroxy-25,26,27-trinor eupha-8-ene-24-oate (1), iso-maticadienediol (2), 25,26,27-trinorTirucall-8-ene-3-ol-4-acid (3), dammarendiol Ⅱ (4), eupha-8,24-diene-3-ol-26-al (5), lnonotusane C (6), eupha-8,24-diene-3-ol-7,11-dione (7), inoterpene A (8), inoterpene B (9), and eupha-24-methylene-8-ene-3-ol-7,11-dione (10). Among them, compound 1 was a new natural product, compounds 2-4 were firstly isolated from the Euphorbiaceae and compounds 5 and 6 were isolated from the genus Euphorbia for the first time. The cytotoxicity of the compounds 1-10 against MCF-7, U937 and C6 cancer cell lines was evaluated, but none of the compounds was active.

This study investigates the wound-healing potential of Euphorbia guyoniana latex (EGL) in male Wistar rats, along with its biochemical composition and biological activities. Phytochemical analysis identified moderate levels of phenolics, flavonoids, and tannins, with HPLC revealing five phenolic compounds. EGL demonstrated strong antioxidant activity in DPPH assays, surpassing ascorbic acid in protecting red blood cells.

Products derived from the latex of were obtained through hydrolysis and column chromatography, resulting in products rich in triterpenes, ingenol 3-esters (I3E), and other derivatives from hydrolysed latex. These products underwent evaluation for their cytotoxic activity against gastric adenocarcinoma cells (AGS). Triterpene derivatives were synthesised, and the selectivity of each product was assessed.

In this study, a catalyst composite of Co-Cu was prepared from chloride-containing precursor of Co(II) and Cu(II) metals using the milky latex of the plant following green principles of synthesis. The catalyst composite was characterized using XRD, EDAX, SEM, HR-TEM, FTIR, XPS and TOF-MS. The crystallinity of the mixed-oxide composite with a distorted octahedral nature was confirmed from analysis.

The spurge is known for its latex, which is rich in antioxidant enzymes and anti-phytopathogen molecules. In this study, we identified a novel polyubiquitin protein in the latex and leaves, leading to the first molecular characterization of its coding gene and expressed protein in . Using consensus-degenerate hybrid oligonucleotide primers (CODEHOP) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (5'/3'-RACE), we reconstructed the entire open reading frame (ORF) and noncoding regions.

Two unusual phorbol esters, namely 20-deoxyphorbol-3,4,12-triacetate-13-phenylacetate () and phorbol-3,4,12,13-tetraacetate-20-phenylacetate () plus ingol-3,8,12-triacetate-7-phenylacetate () were isolated from the latex of and identified by HRESIMS and 2D NMR. Compound is herein described for the first time. Assignment of the phenylacetyl group at C-7 in compound was suggested by the HMBC and NOESY spectra obtained in pyridine-.
