Canarium subulatum
Canarium subulatum
Canarium subulatum is a plant traditionally used by the Tai Yoy community in various cultural, medicinal, and economic practices. While its specific traditional uses for health purposes are not well-documented, studies have shown that methanol extracts from this plant exhibit anti-inflammatory effects through inhibition of Src and Syk in the NF-κB pathway both in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, a study documented 78 wild edible plant species used by the Tai Yoy community, highlighting the importance of Canarium subulatum within their traditional knowledge systems. Scientific evidence also suggests that methanol extracts from this plant can protect skin cells by reducing cell death and oxidative stress, as well as enhancing skin barrier components. However, there is currently no reported major safety concerns or recorded drug interactions associated with its use.

What the science says
- The study documented 78 wild edible plant species used by the Tai Yoy community, highlighting their cultural, medicinal, and economic importance.
- Cs-Me from Canarium subulatum inhibits inflammatory responses by targeting Src and Syk in the NF-κB pathway both in vitro and in vivo.
- Canarium subulatum methanol extract showed protective effects on skin cells by reducing cell death and oxidative stress, and enhancing skin barrier components.
- The study found that interspecific associations among dominant tree species at different structural levels in Hopea hainanensis communities are predominantly non-significant, indicating weak relationships and unstable community states.
