A lot of research has been done to find effective treatments for UC, one of which is herbal medicine. &lt;em&gt;Phaleria macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; (PM), an Indonesian native plant, is thought to be an alternative therapy for UC because of its anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, in this research, &lt;em&gt;Phaleria macrocarpa&lt;/em&gt; Leaves Ethanol Extract (&lt;em&gt;PM&lt;/em&gt;LEE) is used to assess its effect on UC by using Caspase-3 as apoptosis marker. PMLEE was made from dried material of PM that undergo maceration. Animals were separated into six groups: normal, negative control, positive control, and PMLEE groups (100, 200, 300 mg/kgBW). PMLEE was then injected to BALB/c mice that have been induced by dextran sodium sulphate (DSS) for 7 consecutive days. DSS is used to model UC in mice colon tissue. All animals were sacrificed and their colons were collected then stained with anti-Caspase-3. The stained sections were subsequently examined with ImageJ based on color intensity which generated H-Score as the results. Based on H-Score of each group, PMLEE 300mg has significantly upregulate the expression of Caspase-3 compare to the negative control (p=0.015). PMLEE also has a tendency to be dose dependent based on the significant difference between PMLEE doses. Therefore, it concludes that PMLEE is able to upregulate the expression of Caspase-3 in colon cells as in this study it was directly proportional. &lt;strong&gt;Key words:&lt;/strong&gt; Mahkota Dewa, Inflammation, Apoptosis, Ulcerative colitis.&lt;/p&gt;

However, the plant has not been explored much. In the present scenario of drug resistance and toxicity associated with available drugs, there is a need for elaborated studies of plants like &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argeneta&lt;/em&gt; which had been used as folk medicines. &lt;strong&gt;Aim and Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt; The present article is focused on reviewing the ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry, traditional usage, biological activities, of &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; which has been used in traditional medicinal system for ages. The aim of the study was to assess the ethnopharmacological usage of this plant and to explore therapeutic potentials and future opportunities for research. &lt;strong&gt;Materials and Methods:&lt;/strong&gt; Information on the traditional usage and studies of the &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; was gathered from from various journals, MSc dissertation, conference abstract, local books. Various search engines including Google Scholar, Baidu Scholar, Elsevier, ACS, Pubmed, Web of Science, CNKI and EMBASE were used to collect the information along with libraries. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; has played an important role in traditional medicines in Algeria, Portugal, Israel and Jordan. The aerial parts of this plant are used as diuretics in Algerian traditional medicines and are used as antiurolithiasis. Leaf decoction of this plant is also used as diuretic. &lt;em&gt;Paronychia argentea&lt;/em&gt; has been used as analgesic, treatment of stomach ulcer, anorexia, and flatulence in Portugal. Scientific studies on extracts of &lt;em&gt;Paronychia&lt;/em&gt; revealed a wide range of pharmacological activities including anti-microbial activity, anti-oxidant, nephroprotective activity. Moreover, few reports have given contradictory data for usage of &lt;em&gt;Paronychia &lt;/em&gt;when compared with its traditional usage. As in the case of alpha-amylase inhibitory efficacy of PA, it was observed that PA inhibits alpha-amylase activity but later on it was proven that PA does not have a hypoglycemic effect. Main bioactive metabolites present in this plant include alkaloids, flavonoids, volatile oils, etc. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/strong&gt; Based on this review, there are evidences from various studies regarding pharmacological effects of this plant as nephroprotective, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial activity. Some indications from &lt;em&gt;in vitro &lt;/em&gt;studies have confirmed the inhibitory activity of this plant extract against alpha amylase enzyme. The available literature showed that most of the activities of the &lt;em&gt;Paronychia&lt;/em&gt; can be accredited to the flavonoids present in them. Data regarding mechanisms of action of this plant along with pharmacokinetics, toxicology studies is still limited, which indicate the need of such studies for the clinical usage of this plant.&lt;/p&gt;
